NCT ID NCT07226778

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed Phase 1 trial tested how the experimental drug maridebart cafraglutide (AMG 133) is absorbed when given as two different injections. 348 adults with overweight or obesity received a single dose. The main goal was to measure drug levels in the blood, not weight loss. Results will guide future studies on this potential obesity treatment.
