About this study
Official title: A Placebo-controlled Comparability Study to Compare Two Presentations of CagriSema in Participants With Overweight or Obesity
This study is being done to find out how well a medicine called CagriSema helps people with overweight or obesity lose weight. CagriSema is still being tested in studies and is not yet available for doctors to prescribe. In this study the sponsor will compare two version of CagriSema injected by two different types of injection devices. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance using a computer program, so neither participants nor study staff will know which treatment is given. The study will last for about one year.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Cagrisema in people with Overweight and Obesity, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 116 sites in 14 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 116 sites in United States, Bulgaria, Malaysia, Poland, Greece and 9 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Relative change in body weight (time frame: From baseline (week 0) to end of treatment (week 44)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jul 2026.
