About this study

In plain language

This study tests the safety of cagrilintide compared with a placebo, which has no active medicine. It is for adults with obesity who stopped GLP-1 medicines because of stomach or bowel side effects. Treatment is chosen by chance, and the study lasts about 8 months.

The purpose of this clinical study is to look at the safety of the medicine Cagrilintide when compared to placebo in people who do not tolerate marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) therapies and who live with overweight or obesity. Participants will get either Cagrilintide (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (a treatment that has no active medicine in it). Which treatment participant will get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 8 months.

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

Eligibility

Who can join

  • Age 18 or older.
  • Male or female, based on sex at birth.
  • Have records showing you stopped GLP-1 medicines mainly because of stomach or bowel side effects.
  • The study doctor decides that restarting GLP-1 medicines is not suitable based on your medical history.
  • Have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher. BMI is a measure of weight compared with height.

Who can't join

  • Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant, or can become pregnant but are not using highly effective birth control.
  • Used a GLP-1 medicine within 8 weeks before screening.
  • Have a history of type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
  • Have an HbA1c of 6.5% or higher on the screening blood test. This test measures average blood sugar.
  • Used medicine to lower blood sugar for diabetes or prediabetes within 90 days before screening.
  • Used any medicine prescribed for weight control within 8 weeks before screening.

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