AI summary: who the study is looking for
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults living with overweight or obesity. Part A takes people aged 18 to 60 with a BMI of 28 to 35 who are otherwise healthy. Part B takes people aged 18 to 75 with a BMI of 35 to 50, with or without type 2 diabetes.
- Age
- Part A: 18 to 60 years. Part B: 18 to 75 years.
- Sex
- Men and women can join.
- Disease stage
- Part A: BMI 28 to 35 kg/m2, stable (±5%) for the previous 3 to 6 months; a BMI of 28 to 40 kg/m2 is allowed in a cohort expansion. Part B: BMI 35 to 50 kg/m2, with or without type 2 diabetes.
- Earlier treatment
- Part B: no prescription anti-obesity or psychiatric medicines within 14 days or 5 half-lives before the first dose.

Cohorts 4 to 7 only: no sulfonylurea or meglitinides in the 60 days, and no insulin, GLP-1 receptor agonist or dual incretin agonist in the 90 days, before screening. Both parts: no siRNA agent in the prior 12 months, and no investigational agent within 90 days or 5 half-lives.
- Biomarker or test result
- Part B: thyroid stimulating hormone within the normal range at screening. Supplemental thyroid hormone is allowed if stable within the last 60 days.

- Original description
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ascending doses of WVE-007 when administered subcutaneously (SC) . Part A is a single ascending dose study in adults living with overweight and obesity. The Part B of the study is a repeat dose administration in adult with obesity, with or without Type 2 Diabetes (T2D and non-T2D, respectively). In addition, Part B includes two dose groups that will receive WVE-007 and tirzepatide in adults living with obesity and T2D.Read full original descriptionShow less
