About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This study is being done to look at the safety and effect of NNC0487-0111 in people with Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) or Heart Failure with mildly reduced Ejection Fraction (HFmrEF) and excess body weight when compared to placebo. The purpose of this clinical study is to find out if NNC0487-0111 is safe and effective for treating people who have HFpEF or HFmrEF and excess body weight. Participants will get NNC0487-0111 or placebo by injection once a week. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. NNC0487-0111 is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe yet, but it has been tested in people before.
The 2 groups in the trial
- NNC0487-0111Treatment being tested
Participants will receive NNC0487-0111 subcutaneously (s.c.) in a dose escalating manner once weekly.
- PlaceboPlacebo, for comparison
Participants will receive placebo matched to NNC0487-011 s.c. once weekly.
