Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18-64 with BMI 27.0–34.9 kg/m2 who are generally healthy and have not previously participated in amylin-analogue studies.

Probably not a fit

Participants who do not show favorable pharmacokinetic profiles or have safety concerns may not benefit from the study.

What this trial studies

This Phase 1 trial compares two versions of cagrilintide (version D and version B) to see how they behave in the body after multiple doses. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either version D, version B, or placebo semaglutide I for about six months. The study focuses on safety and pharmacokinetics in generally healthy adults with BMI 27.0–34.9 kg/m2. Primary data will come from blood measurements and routine safety assessments.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could clarify how different versions of cagrilintide behave in the body and inform future dose selection.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies in this class of drugs have shown measurable differences in blood levels with different versions, supporting the approach.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Aged 18-64 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing informed consent
* Body mass index (BMI) between 27.0 and 34.9 kilograms per square metre (kg/m\^2) (both inclusive) at screening. Overweight should be due to excess adipose tissue, as judged by the investigator.
* Considered to be generally healthy based on the medical history, physical examination, and the results of vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), and clinical laboratory tests performed during the screening visit, as judged by the investigator.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Previous participation in study(s) with an amylin analogue. Participation is defined as randomisation.
* Any condition which in the investigator's opinion might jeopardise participant's safety or compliance with the protocol.
