About

This study is open to Chinese adults aged 18 to 60 with overweight or obesity. People can join the study if they have a Body Mass Index from 24 to 40.0 kg/m2.

Survodutide is a medicine being developed to help people with overweight or obesity. The purpose of this study is to find out how different doses of survodutide are taken up in the body. Other goals are to test if participants can tolerate different doses of survodutide and whether survodutide helps people with overweight or obesity.

Participants receive survodutide as an injection under the skin once a week for 7.5 months. During this time, participants visit the study site 33 times. 4 of the visits require a stay in the hospital. At the visits, doctors take blood samples to measure the levels of survodutide in participants' blood. The doctors also check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
