NCT ID NCT06207877
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed phase 1 trial tested whether CagriSema, a combination of two drugs (cagrilintide and semaglutide), can reduce how much people with overweight or obesity eat, curb their appetite, and slow stomach emptying. 62 participants received either CagriSema or a placebo for about 32 weeks. The study measured changes in energy intake during meals and other appetite-related outcomes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CagriSema (cagrilintide and semaglutide combination)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a more effective weight-loss treatment that helps people eat less and feel fuller.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study (62 people) that only measures short-term effects on appetite and stomach emptying. It may not lead to a marketable treatment, and side effects from the drugs are possible.
