Résumé

Obesity is a widespread and chronic condition that requires long-term management; research into additional targets to improve treatment outcomes remains a priority. This study aimed to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of glucagon receptor-GLP-1 receptor dual agonist survodutide (BI 456906) in obesity management. In this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding phase 2 trial conducted in 43 centres in 12 countries, we enrolled participants (aged 18-75 years, BMI ≥27 kg/m Between March 30, 2021, and Nov 11, 2021, we enrolled 387 participants; 386 (100%) participants were treated (0·6 mg, n=77; 2·4 mg, n=78; 3·6 mg, n=77; 4·8 mg, n=77; placebo n=77) and 233 (60·4%) of 386 completed the 46-week treatment period (187 [61%] of 309 receiving survodutide; 46 [60%] of 77 receiving placebo). When analysed according to planned treatment, mean (95% CI) changes in bodyweight from baseline to week 46 were -6·2% (-8·3 to -4·1; 0·6 mg); -12·5% (-14·5 to -10·5; 2·4 mg); -13·2% (-15·3 to -11·2; 3·6 mg); -14·9% (-16·9 to -13·0; 4·8 mg); -2·8% (-4·9 to -0·7; placebo). Adverse events occurred in 281 (91%) of 309 survodutide recipients and 58 (75%) of 77 placebo recipients; these were primarily gastrointestinal in 232 (75%) of 309 survodutide recipients and 32 (42%) of 77 placebo recipients. All tested survodutide doses were tolerated, and dose-dependently reduced bodyweight. Boehringer Ingelheim.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Obesity is a widespread and chronic condition that requires long-term management; research into additional targets to improve treatment outcomes remains a priority. This study aimed to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of glucagon receptor-GLP-1 receptor dual agonist survodutide (BI 456906) in obesity management.
METHODS METHODS
In this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding phase 2 trial conducted in 43 centres in 12 countries, we enrolled participants (aged 18-75 years, BMI ≥27 kg/m
FINDINGS RESULTS
Between March 30, 2021, and Nov 11, 2021, we enrolled 387 participants; 386 (100%) participants were treated (0·6 mg, n=77; 2·4 mg, n=78; 3·6 mg, n=77; 4·8 mg, n=77; placebo n=77) and 233 (60·4%) of 386 completed the 46-week treatment period (187 [61%] of 309 receiving survodutide; 46 [60%] of 77 receiving placebo). When analysed according to planned treatment, mean (95% CI) changes in bodyweight from baseline to week 46 were -6·2% (-8·3 to -4·1; 0·6 mg); -12·5% (-14·5 to -10·5; 2·4 mg); -13·2% (-15·3 to -11·2; 3·6 mg); -14·9% (-16·9 to -13·0; 4·8 mg); -2·8% (-4·9 to -0·7; placebo). Adverse events occurred in 281 (91%) of 309 survodutide recipients and 58 (75%) of 77 placebo recipients; these were primarily gastrointestinal in 232 (75%) of 309 survodutide recipients and 32 (42%) of 77 placebo recipients.
INTERPRETATION CONCLUSIONS
All tested survodutide doses were tolerated, and dose-dependently reduced bodyweight.
