Official title: An NNC6022-0004 Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study Investigating Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Food Effect and Target Engagement in Healthy Adults Including a Single Cohort in Adults Living With Obesity
This study is being done to look at the efficacy single and multiple ascending dose study investigating safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, food effect and target engagement in healthy adults including a single cohort in adults living with obesity. Participants will either get NNC6022-0004, (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (a treatment that has no active medicine in it) and which treatment participants get is decided by chance.
Read the detailed description
The study consists of 5 Parts (Parts A to E and the participants will be assessed based on the study intervention received (NNC6022-0004 or Placebo).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing NNC6022-0004 in people with Obesity and Elevated High-sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hsCRP), run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in Netherlands.
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 8 inclusion and 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Novo Nordisk ((+1) 866-867-7178, clinicaltrials@novonordisk.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Part A: Area under the NNC6022-0001 plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to last measurable plasma concentration (AUC0-tz) after a single dose (time frame: From pre-dose (Day 1) until visit 3 (Day 9)). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Sep 2026.
