What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ZT002 injectionDrug
Subjects will receive subcutaneous injections of Zovaglutide (ZT002 Injection) once every two weeks.
ZT002 injection matching placeboDrug
Subjects will receive subcutaneous injections of ZT002 injection matching placebo once every two weeks.
