Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Obesity and Overweight | Drug: NNC0165-1875 Drug: Placebo (NNC0165-1875) Drug: Semaglutide | Phase 1 |
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Actual Enrollment : | 88 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Parallel Assignment |
Intervention Model Description: | In total, 11 cohorts are planned. Five cohorts in Part 1 (cohort 1-5), and 6 cohorts (cohort 6-11) in Part 2. Each cohort will contain 8 participants. The first 2 participants will be randomised so one participant will receive active (Part 1: NNC0165-1875; Part 2: NNC0165-1875 and semaglutide) while the other receive placebo (Part 1: placebo; Part 2: placebo and semaglutide) treatment. The participants will remain in-house for a 5 days safety observation period. The remaining 6 subjects will be dosed at least after 96 hours. |
Masking: | Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor) |
Masking Description: | Sponsor staff involved in the clinical trial is masked according to company standard procedures. |
Primary Purpose: | Treatment |
Official Title: | A First Human Dose Trial Investigating Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Single Doses of NNC0165-1875 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Semaglutide in Subjects With Overweight or Obesity |

Experimental: NNC0165-1875
Participants will receive NNC0165-1875 alone in cohorts 1-5 (part 1) and NNC0165-1875 along with semaglutide in cohorts 6-11 (part 2).
|
Drug: NNC0165-1875
Participants will receive a single dose of subcutaneous (s.c.) NNC0165-1875 injection. The planned doses of NNC0165-1875 are as following: cohort 1 and 7: 0.1 mg, cohort 2 and 8: 0.3 mg, cohort 3 and 9: 0.6 mg, cohort 4 and 10: 1.2 mg, cohort 5 and 11: 2.4 mg and cohort 6: 0.03 mg. Drug: Semaglutide Participants will receive a single dose of s.c. semaglutide 0.25 mg injection. |
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Participants will receive placebo alone in cohorts 1-5 (part 1) and placebo along with semaglutide in cohorts 6-11 (part 2).
|
Drug: Placebo (NNC0165-1875)
Participants will receive a single dose of s.c. placebo injection. Drug: Semaglutide Participants will receive a single dose of s.c. semaglutide 0.25 mg injection. |
