Investigating the Pharmacokinetics of Petrelintide Using Different Drug Product Concentrations

Investigating the Pharmacokinetics of Petrelintide Using Different Drug Product Concentrations in Participants With a BMI ≥27.0 kg/m²

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This clinical research study is testing the study compound petrelintide that is being developed for the weight management in people with obesity or overweight with co-morbidities or related diseases. The goal is to learn how the same single dose of petrelintide, given using different concentrations, works in the body when given to participants with a BMI at, or above, 27kg/m2. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Are there differences in how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolises and excretes petrelintide when same single dose petrelintide is given using different concentrations? 2. Are there differences in safety of petrelintide when same single dose petrelintide is given using different concentrations? Participants will: Visit the study center 10 times for tests and blood sampling (9 day ambulatory visits and 1 in-house visit of 4 consecutive days with sleeping 3 nights at the study center). Petrelintide will be given once as a single injection in a skin fold of the abdomen on Day 1. The participants will be monitored until approximately Day 50.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Previous exposure to petrelintide (ZP8396) or exposure to other amylin analogs within the last 3 months
  • Planned surgery scheduled during the study period, except for minor surgical procedures, as judged by the Investigator
  • Inability or unwillingness to refrain from smoking and use of nicotine substitute products 1 day before and during the inpatient period
  • Any use of chronic (\>14 days) systemic glucocorticoid therapy (excluding topical, intraocular, intranasal, single intraarticular injection, or inhaled preparations) within 90 days of screening
  • Any medication (prescription and non-prescription drugs) except for stable treatment with antihypertensive and lipid-lowering drugs as well as thyroid replacement therapy, unless approved by the medical monitor in consultation with the Sponsor (Note: Stable treatment with antihypertensive and lipid lowering drugs (stable for ≥1 month prior to screening) as well as thyroid replacement therapy (≥2 months prior to screening) will be allowed. Use of routine vitamins, topical treatments (including local acting steroids/antihistamines for the treatment of mild hay fever), menopausal hormone replacement therapy, and contraceptives are allowed. In addition, occasional use of acetylsalicylic acid, paracetamol, and ibuprofen for acute pain treatment is allowed.

Other illness

  • History of type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus
  • Obesity induced by an endocrinologic disorder (eg, Cushing Syndrome) or diagnosed monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity
  • Uncontrolled thyroid disease as judged clinically significant by the Investigator
  • Evidence of significant neuropsychiatric disease
  • Any history or presence of a disorder or a disease, which, in the Investigator's opinion, might jeopardize the participant's safety, evaluation of results, or compliance with the protocol.
  • Known or suspected hypersensitivity to study product or related products.
  • Known cardiovascular disease (excluding hypertension), including arthrosclerosis, transient ischemic attack, stroke, angina pectoris, or a history of myocardial infarction or coronary arterial bypass graft/percutaneous coronary intervention
  • Presence or history of clinically significant arrhythmias or clinically significant conduction disorders
  • Presence or history of acute or chronic pancreatitis.
  • History or presence of malignant neoplasms (except basal or squamous cell skin cancer or cervical carcinoma in situ) within 5 years before the screening as judged by the Investigator

Lab values

  • HbA1c ≥48 mmol/mol (6.5%)
  • Treatment with glucose-lowering agent(s) within 90 days prior to screening
  • A marked baseline prolongation of QT/QTc interval (eg, repeated demonstration of a QTc interval \>450 ms) at screening or Day -1
  • A history of additional risk factors for Torsades de pointes (eg, heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of Long QT syndrome)
  • The use of concomitant medications that prolong the QT/QTc interval

Other

  • Systolic BP ≥160 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥110 mmHg at screening
  • Receipt of any medicinal product under clinical development within 30 days or at least 5 half-lives of the related substances and their metabolites (whichever is longer) before randomization in this study
  • Known clinically significant gastric emptying abnormality (for example severe gastroparesis, gastric outlet obstruction, gastric bypass operations or sleeve gastrectomy) or chronic treatment that affects gastrointestinal motility
  • Anticipated change in lifestyle (eg, eating, exercise, or sleep pattern) during the study
  • Smoking more than 5 cigarettes or the equivalent nicotine consumption per day (including use of nicotine preparations)

Who the study is looking for

  • Signed and dated informed consent obtained before any study-related activities. Study-related activities are any procedures that would not have been done during normal management of the participant
  • BMI: ≥27.0 kg/m2, at screening and Day -1
  • Have sufficient venous access to allow cannulation for blood sampling as required by the protocol.
  • Able and willing to comply with all study procedures

Age in the registry: 18 years to 64 years · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
