- Original description
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of enicepatide, a dual glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonist (RA), at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in participants with obesity or overweight and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Read full original descriptionShow less
A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Once-Weekly RO7795068 Administered to Participants With Obesity or Overweight and Type 2 Diabetes
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of enicepatide, a dual glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonist (RA), at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in participants with obesity or overweight and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Inclusion: Ability and willingness to self-administer the study drug (or receive an injection from a trained individual if visually impaired or with physical limitations); Diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) according to WHO classification or other locally applicable standards with HbA1c ≥6.5% to ≤10% determined by laboratory test at screening, and on stable oral therapy for at least 3 months prior to screening (if applicable). T2DM may be treated with diet/exercise alone or any oral anti-hyperglycemic medication (as per local labeling) EXCEPT dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors or GLP-1 RA-based therapy; Body mass index (BMI) ≥27.0 kg/m\^2; History of ≥1 self-reported unsuccessful diet/exercise effort to lose body weight.
Exclusion: History of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or any lifetime history of ketoacidosis or history of hyperosmolar state/coma within 12 months prior to screening; Have had 1 or more episodes of severe hypoglycemia and/or has hypoglycemia unawareness within the 6 months prior to screening; Self-reported change in body weight >5 kg within 3 months prior to screening; Prior or planned surgical treatment for obesity. Liposuction or abdominoplasty if performed more than 1 year prior to screening is allowed; Have any of the following cardiovascular conditions within 3 months prior to screening: Acute myocardial infarction; Cerebrovascular accident (stroke)/transient ischemic attack; Unstable angina; Hospitalization due to congestive heart failure; Treatment with any approved or investigational GLP-1-RA-based therapy (e.g., GLP-1 receptor mono agonist, GLP-1/GIP receptor dual agonist, GLP-1/GIP/Gluc receptor triple agonist) within 6 months prior to randomization; Obesity induced by other endocrinologic disorders (e.g., Cushing's syndrome) or diagnosed monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity (e.g., melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency or Prader-Willi syndrome); Poorly controlled hypertension at screening; At least 2 confirmed fasting blood glucose values >270 mg/dL (15.0 mmol/L) (on 2 non-consecutive days) during screening; Known clinically significant gastric emptying abnormality (e.g., severe gastroparesis or gastric outlet obstruction).
