First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new drug combination (AZD9550 and AZD6234) for weight loss in 166 adults who are overweight or obese, with or without type 2 diabetes. The main goals are to check safety, tolerability, and how the drug moves through the body. It is an early-stage trial, so it focuses on finding the right dose and ensuring the drug is safe before testing if it works.

What this could mean

Active substance

AZD9550 (a dual GCG/GLP-1 receptor agonist) and AZD6234 (a SARA)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a new weight-loss treatment that also helps control blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes.
