New weekly shot could help shed pounds in major obesity trial
NCT ID NCT07311850
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Sep 04, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This large phase 3 trial is testing a new once-weekly injection called MET097 for weight loss in 3501 adults with obesity or overweight (but without diabetes). Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for up to 84 weeks. The main goal is to see how much weight people lose after 64 weeks of treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MET097 (a once-weekly injection that mimics a natural hormone to help with weight loss)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new, convenient once-weekly treatment option for significant and sustained weight loss in people with obesity or overweight.
- What could go wrong
- This is a phase 3 trial, but results are not yet known. Weight loss may be modest for some, and side effects like nausea or rare thyroid tumors are possible. It is not a cure for obesity.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
