About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Parallel-controlled Phase III Clinical Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Semaglutide Injection and WEGOVY® in Chinese Obese Patients
This is a 48-week randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled biosimilar comparison study comparing the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of the investigational drug and WEGOVY® in patients with obesity. Eligible participants will be screened and randomized to the experimental group and the active comparator group at a ratio of 1:1 , semaglutide injection or WEGOVY® injection will be given once weekly for 44 weeks, following by a safety follow up of 4 weeks. All participants received a lifestyle intervention that involved counselling on diet and physical activity.

- Obesity Control
- Being tested
- HDM1702, Wegovy ®

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing HDM1702 and Wegovy ® in people with Obesity Control, run by Hangzhou Zhongmei Huadong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.
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 8 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 25 Jun 2025. 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 China. 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. 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?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
The percentage change in body weight from baseline to week 44 (time frame: 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 25 Jun 2025.
