NCT ID NCT06471530
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase study tested a new drug called TE-8105 in 38 overweight or obese adults without diabetes. The main goal was to see if the drug is safe and how the body processes it. Participants received one or more injections of TE-8105 at different doses. The study is complete, but results are not yet available.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TE-8105
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment for weight loss in people who are overweight or obese.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, first-in-human trial with only 38 participants. It is designed mainly to check safety and dosing, not to prove weight loss works. Many early-stage drugs fail to show benefit in larger studies.
