Summary

This study tests if an experimental drug called BIO101 can help prevent muscle weakness in people taking the weight-loss drug semaglutide. About 164 overweight or obese adults will take either BIO101 or a placebo pill twice daily for 21 weeks, along with semaglutide and a reduced-calorie diet. Researchers will measure changes in leg and hand strength, physical function, and quality of life to see if BIO101 offers any benefit.
