A Study to Test Whether Survodutide (BI 456906) Helps People Living With Overweight or Obesity Who do Not Have Diabetes to Lose Weight

Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim
Brief Summary

This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have

* a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or more, or

* a BMI of 27 kg/m² or more and at least one health problem related to their weight.

People with type 2 diabetes cannot take part in this study. Only people who have previously not managed to lose weight by changing their diet can participate.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide (BI 456906) helps people living with overweight or obesity to lose weight. Participants are divided into 3 groups by chance, like drawing names from a hat. 2 groups get different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about one and a half years. In addition to the study medicine, all participants receive counselling to make changes to their diet and to exercise regularly.

Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 7 months. During this time, it is planned that participants visit the study site up to 14 times and receive 6 phone calls by the site staff.

The doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The participants' body weight is regularly measured. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works.

Absolute change from baseline to Week 76 in "Capacity to Resist" domain score of the Eating Behaviour patient reported outcome (PRO)Baseline and at Week 76

"Capacity to Resist" domain score of the Eating Behaviour PRO is ranging between 0 and 24 and a higher score indicates a lower capacity to resist.

Absolute change from baseline to Week 76 in Eating Behaviour PRO total scoreBaseline and at Week 76

Eating Behaviour PRO total score is ranging between 0 and 48 and a higher score indicates a worse eating behaviour (greater desire to eat and/or lower capacity to resist).
