Can a new injection help shed excess weight?
NCT ID NCT07745504
First seen Aug 04, 2026 · Last updated Sep 04, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This clinical trial is testing an investigational medicine called cagrilintide to see how well it helps people with overweight or obesity lose weight. Participants will receive either cagrilintide or a placebo (an inactive substance) by injection, and their weight change will be tracked over about 9 months. The study aims to compare two different presentations of cagrilintide to ensure they work similarly. Adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 27 or higher may be eligible to join.
