New weekly shot could help control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes
NCT ID NCT07156500
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This Phase 3 study tests a new drug called HS-20094, given as a weekly injection, in 204 adults with type 2 diabetes that is not well controlled by diet and exercise alone. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for up to 52 weeks. The main goal is to see if the drug lowers blood sugar levels (HbA1c) more than placebo.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- HS-20094 injection
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a new weekly injection to help people with type 2 diabetes better control their blood sugar and possibly lose weight.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 3 trial with only 204 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work better than placebo or could have side effects not yet known.
