A Research Study Looking Into How Cagrilintide Influences Food Intake and Appetite in People With Overweight or Obesity

A Study Investigating the Effect of Cagrilintide on Energy Intake and Appetite in People With Overweight or Obesity

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The study is testing cagrilintide, a study medicine, to understand how it affects food intake and appetite in people with overweight or obesity. Participants will receive either cagrilintide or placebo, and which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Cagrilintide is the treatment being tested, while placebo looks like the study medicine but does not contain any active medicine. The study will last for about 30 weeks.

Who cannot take part

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

Prior treatment

  • Any clinically significant body weight change (≥ 5% self-reported change) or dieting at-tempts (e.g., participation in a weight reduction program) within 90 days before screening.
  • Use of incretin therapies within the last 6 months prior to screening or previous discontinuation of incretin therapy due to tolerability issues.
  • Use of any weight lowering pharmacotherapy or pharmacotherapy that may cause weight gain, including systemic corticosteroids (except for a short course of treatment, i.e., 7-10 days), tri-cyclic antidepressants, atypical antipsychotic and mood stabilisers 6 months prior to screening.
  • Previous dosing of marketed or non-marketed amylin-based compounds.

Other illness

  • Known or suspected hypersensitivity to study intervention(s) or related products.
  • Presence or history of any clinically relevant respiratory, metabolic, renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, or endocrinological conditions.
  • History of type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus

Lab values

  • Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥ 6.5% (48 millimoles per mole (mmol/mol)) at screening.

Other

  • Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of childbearing potential and not using adequate contraceptive method.

Who the study is looking for

  • Male or female (sex at birth).
  • Age 18-64 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • Body mass index (BMI) is greater than or equal to (≥) 27.0 kg/m\^2 at screening. Over-weight should be due to excess adipose tissue, as judged by the investigator.
  • Considered to be generally healthy, except for overweight or obesity, based on the medical history, physical examination, and the results of vital signs, electrocardiogram and clinical laboratory tests performed during the screening visit, as judged by the investigator.
