Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- For Part A and B
- Adult male and female participants, aged 18 to 65 years, inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent form
- Body mass index between 27.0 to 39.9 kg/m2 at Screening, both inclusive; overweight should be due to excess adipose tissue, as judged by the Investigator.
- Have a stable body weight (\< 5.0 kg/11 lbs self-reported change) within 90 days prior to Screening
- Females must be surgically sterile (by means of bilateral salpingectomy, hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy) or be post-menopausal (defined as spontaneous cessation of menses for at least 1 year prior to Screening). Females who are post-menopausal and \< 55 years must have a follicle-stimulating hormone level \> 40 IU/L at Screening.
- Males with female partners of child-bearing potential must be willing to practice abstinence or must agree to use condom as contraception throughout the duration of the study. This criterion may be waived for male participants who have had a documented successful vasectomy \> 6 months before signing the ICF. For Part B only
- Diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes for at least 180 days prior to Screening.
- Glycemic control managed by diet and exercise alone or by stable treatment with metformin and/or sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i), with no dose changes within 3 months prior to Screening.
- Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) between 7.0 % and 9.0% (equivalent to 53-75 mmol/mol), both inclusive, at Screening.
Exclusion criteria
- For Part A and B
- History or presence of any clinically relevant respiratory, metabolic (including dyslipidemia, however mild dyslipidemia, defined as screening total cholesterol below or equal to 302 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L) and/or screening triglyceride below 300 mg/dL (3.39 mmol/L) is accepted), renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, endocrinological conditions (except conditions associated with type 2 diabetes in Part B) at the discretion of the Investigator.
- Participants with a family or personal history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 or a personal history of nonfamilial medullary thyroid carcinoma.
- Current or history of chronic or acute pancreatitis.
- Obesity caused by known endocrinologic disorders (e.g., Cushing syndrome) or monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity (for example, Melanocortin 4 Receptor deficiency or Prader Willi Syndrome).
- History of major depressive disorder or other severe psychiatric disorder (for example, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or anxiety disorder).
- Lifetime history of a suicide attempt or of any suicidal behavior by endorsement of (answered yes to) any of the items in the suicidal behavior section on the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at Screening.
- Systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mm Hg at Screening.
- History of or current cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to stable and unstable angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, transient ischemic attack, stroke, clinically significant arrhythmias and conduction disorders or venous thromboembolism. Part A only • History or clinical evidence of Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes mellitus, including HbA1c ≥ 6.5% and/or a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥ 126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L) at Screening (female participants with a history of gestational diabetes are allowed). Part B only
- Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) \> 270 mg/dL (15.0 mmol/L) at Screening.
- Proliferative retinopathy or maculopathy as judged by the investigator based on a recent (within1.5 years from Screening) ophthalmologic examination.
- Severe neuropathy as judged by the investigator.
- Advanced nephropathy (defined as albuminuria ≥ 300 mg/g).
- History of severe hypoglycemia or hypoglycemic unawareness as judged by the investigator.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
