A Research Study Looking at a New Study Medicine (NNC0194-0499) for Weight Control in People With Overweight or Obesity

Phase 1

Conditions

Obesity
Interventions
Drug: NNC0194-0499
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT03479892
Lead Sponsor
Novo Nordisk A/S
Brief Summary

This study looks at a new study medicine for weight control in people with overweight or obesity. The aim of this study is to see if the study medicine is safe for people to take. The study also looks at how fast the body removes the study medicine. The participants will either get NNC0194-0499 (the study medicine) or placebo (a formula that looks like the medicine but does not have active ingredients). Which treatment the participants get is decided by chance. The participants will get 1 or more injections into the skin of stomach area once each week for 12 weeks. The study will last for about 4 to 5 months. The participants will have 18 visits to the clinic.
