About this study
Official title: Tolerability of Cagrilintide in People With Obesity That Discontinued GLP-1-RA Therapies Due to Gastrointestinal Adverse Events: a Double-blinded Randomised Feasibility Study
The purpose of this clinical study is to look at the safety of the medicine Cagrilintide when compared to placebo in people who do not tolerate marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) therapies and who live with overweight or obesity. Participants will get either Cagrilintide (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (a treatment that has no active medicine in it). Which treatment participant will get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 8 months.
- Conditions
- Obesity, Overweight
- Being tested
- Cagrilintide, Placebo (matched to Cagrilintide)
- Medical subject headings
- Obesity, Overweight

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Cagrilintide in people with Obesity and Overweight, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 13 sites in United States.
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 5 inclusion and 6 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 19 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 13 sites in United States. 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?
Percentage of participants on standard dose or higher dose (yes/no) of cagrilintide and placebo (time frame: At week 26). 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 19 Oct 2026.
