NCT ID NCT06672172
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed phase 3 trial tested three doses of the oral drug HRS-7535 against a placebo in 284 adults with type 2 diabetes whose blood sugar was not well controlled by diet and exercise alone. The main goal was to see if HRS-7535 could lower HbA1c (a measure of average blood sugar) over 32 weeks. Researchers also tracked weight changes and how many participants reached target blood sugar levels.
