Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18-65 with obesity or body mass index criteria specified for each part, and who meet health criteria after screening.

Probably not a fit

Participants who receive placebo or do not experience any treatment-related effects during the study may not benefit directly.

What this trial studies

This phase 1, interventional study investigates single and multiple ascending doses of NNC6022-0004 to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, food effects, and target engagement. The trial includes a single cohort of adults living with obesity and uses random assignment to NNC6022-0004 or placebo across five parts. Participants are healthy adults aged 18-55 (Parts A–D) and may enroll adults 18-65 (Part E) with obesity or elevated hsCRP criteria, depending on the part. The study is sponsored by Novo Nordisk A/S with ICON as the site location in Groningen, Netherlands.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience insights into the safety and potential effects of NNC6022-0004, which could inform future obesity-related therapies.

How similar studies have gone: Other early-phase studies of similar compounds have shown safety and dose-tuning potential, though this exact approach is exploratory.
