Eloralintide for people with persistent obesity on weekly incretin therapy

A Phase 3 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Once Weekly Eloralintide in Adult Participants With Persistent Obesity or Overweight Treated With a Weekly Incretin, With and Without Type 2 Diabetes

Phase 3 Interventional Eli Lilly and Company · NCT07392190

This trial will test whether adding eloralintide helps adults with persistent obesity or overweight who are already taking a weekly incretin medication, with or without type 2 diabetes.

What this trial studies

Adults who remain overweight or obese despite stable weekly incretin therapy will receive either eloralintide or a matching placebo in addition to their background medication and will be followed for about 80 weeks. The study compares weight outcomes and safety between the eloralintide and placebo groups while participants maintain a stable incretin regimen. Eligibility focuses on BMI thresholds (≥30 kg/m2, or ≥27 kg/m2 with an obesity-related complication) and a stable body weight prior to enrollment. People with recent or planned surgical or device-based obesity treatments, type 1 diabetes, or recent disallowed antihyperglycemic medications are excluded.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults with persistent obesity or overweight (BMI ≥30 kg/m2, or ≥27 kg/m2 with an obesity-related complication) who are on stable weekly incretin therapy and have had less than 5% weight change recently are ideal candidates.

Not a fit: People with type 1 diabetes, recent or planned bariatric or device-based obesity procedures, or recent use of disallowed antihyperglycemic drugs are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, eloralintide could provide additional weight loss and improve obesity-related health measures when added to weekly incretin therapy.

How similar studies have performed: Other amylin receptor agonists, particularly when combined with GLP-1–based therapies, have shown promising weight-loss results in earlier-stage trials.
