About this study
Official title: A PHASE 3, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED STUDY TO ASSESS THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF ONCE-MONTHLY BEROBENATIDE IN ADULTS WITH KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS AND OVERWEIGHT OR OBESITY (VESPER-OA 1)
The purpose of this clinical study is to learn about the safety and effects of berobenatide (PF-08653944) for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in adults with overweight or obesity. The study will last 52 weeks and compare the effects of berobenatide compared to placebo on knee pain, physical function, and body weight. Study activities will include blood tests, knee pain assessment, physical function questionnaires and body measurements.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Berobenatide in people with Obesity and Overweight, run by Pfizer at 40 sites in 2 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 7 inclusion and 10 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 5 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 40 sites in United States, Canada. 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?
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 Pfizer CT.gov Call Center (1-800-718-1021, ClinicalTrials.gov_Inquiries@pfizer.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change from baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Subscale score (time frame: Baseline and Week 52). 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 5 Nov 2026.
