About this study

In plain language

This study tests ABBV-295 shots given under the skin in adults with obesity. It compares ABBV-295 with a placebo (a shot with no study drug) to check side effects, changes in body weight, and how the body handles the drug.

This study is to assess adverse events, change in body weight and pharmacokinetics in adult participants with obesity receiving ABBV-295 subcutaneous injections or matching placebo.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join

  • Have a BMI from 30.0 to 45.0 at screening, rounded to one decimal place. BMI is a measure based on height and weight.
  • You may have stable weight-related health problems, such as high blood pressure, high blood fats, breathing pauses during sleep, or heart disease.
  • Women must not be pregnant or breastfeeding, or plan to become pregnant or donate eggs during the study or for about 60 days after the last dose.

Who can't join

  • Report a body weight change of 5% or more in the 3 months before screening.
  • Have an HbA1c of 6.5% or higher, or blood sugar of 126 mg/dL or higher, at screening. HbA1c measures average blood sugar over time.
  • Have taken medicine to treat obesity or been enrolled in an obesity study within 180 days before receiving study treatment.

Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.

Official eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * BMI ≥ 30.0 to ≤ 45.0 kg/m2 after rounding to the tenths decimal at Screening (BMI is calculated as weight in kg divided by the square of height measured in meters) with or without weight related stable comorbidities (e.g., hypertension, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, cardiovascular disease). * A female who is not pregnant or breastfeeding and is not considering becoming pregnant or donating eggs during the study or for approximately 60 days after the last dose of study treatment. Exclusion Criteria: * Participant has a self-reported change in body weight ≥ 5% within 3 months prior to Screening. * HbA1c ≥ 6.5% and/or serum glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL at Screening. * Participant has taken a medication for the purpose of treating obesity or has been enrolled in an obesity trial within 180 days prior to study treatment administration.
