Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to under 65 who meet the study's BMI and weight criteria—healthy participants with BMI 18.5–<28.0 kg/m² for SAD, and adults with BMI 18.5–<40.0 kg/m² and stable weight for MAD—who consent and pass screening.

Probably not a fit

People with diabetes (history of type 1 or type 2 diabetes, HbA1c > 6.5% or fasting plasma glucose > 7.0 mmol/L) or other major exclusionary medical conditions are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase I trial tests single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) regimens of XTL6001 in healthy and obese adult subjects. The SAD part includes five dose cohorts with about 40 subjects planned and the MAD part includes two dose cohorts with about 30 subjects planned. Primary outcomes are safety and tolerability, with secondary assessments of pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). Enrollment is conducted at Beijing Shijitan Hospital (Capital Medical University) and participants must meet specified BMI, weight, and screening criteria.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this early testing could identify safe dose ranges and early signals that XTL6001 may help with weight management.

How similar studies have gone: Early-phase PK/PD trials are a standard first step in obesity drug development and have led to later successes for some drug classes, but XTL6001 itself appears to be a novel agent without published human efficacy results to date.
