A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effects of Enicepatide (RO7795068) in Participants With Obesity or Overweight Without Type 2 Diabetes (NCT07351045) is a Phase 3 interventional studying Obesity or Overweight, sponsored by Hoffmann-La Roche.

About This Trial

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of enicepatide, a dual glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1)/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonist (RA), at multiple doses compared with placebo for weight management in participants without Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who have obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbidity.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 3 trials confirm efficacy and safety in large patient groups (often 300–3,000+) and form the evidence base for an FDA approval submission. For Obesity or Overweight, Phase 3 studies typically randomize participants between the investigational treatment and either a placebo or current standard of care. A successful Phase 3 result is the threshold most treatments need to clear before regulatory approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 2,000 participants makes this one of the larger Obesity or Overweight trials currently registered. Trials at this scale are typically global, run across many sites, and designed to generate the definitive evidence package for an FDA approval submission or a label expansion.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Participants must have at screening: 1. Body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to (≥)30.0 kg/m\^2; or 2.

Liposuction or abdominoplasty if performed more than 1 year prior to screening is allowed. * Known clinically significant gastric emptying abnormality (e.g., severe gastroparesis or gastric outlet obstruction) * History of acute or chronic pancreatitis or clinically significant gallbladder disease.

Participants with MDD or generalized anxiety disorder whose disease state is considered stable within 1 year prior to screening and expected to remain stable throughout the course of the study, in the opinion of the investigator, are allowed provided that they are not receiving prohibited medication. * Treatment with any approved or investigational GLP-1-RA-based therapy (e.g., GLP-1 receptor mono agonist, GLP-1/GIP receptor dual agonist, GLP-1/GIP/Gluc receptor triple agonist) within 6 months prior to randomization

The full protocol is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and includes the primary outcome measures, eligibility criteria, and study endpoints.

Who can participate in NCT07351045?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath. Whether you fit any specific trial is a medical decision your doctor needs to confirm — bring the trial information to your treating physician for a full review against your medical history.

How do I contact the trial site for NCT07351045?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.
