A Research Study on How NNC0487-0111, a New Medicine, Works in Chinese Participants After 10 Days of Oral Dosing

August 19, 2025 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

Investigation of Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Properties of Multiple Oral Doses of NNC0487-0111 in Chinese Participants With Overweight or Obesity

The study is testing a new study medicine called NNC0487-0111 for weight control in Chinese people with Body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to (>=) 24 kilogram per square meter (kg/m^2). The aim of this study is to find out how safe the study medicine is and how it behaves in your body. Participants will either get NNC0487-0111 or placebo. Which treatment participants will get is decided by chance. Oral NNC0487-0111 is a new medicine which cannot be prescribed by doctors but has previously been tested in humans. The study will last for about 60 days.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Informed consent obtained before any study-related activities. Study-related activities are any procedures that are carried out as part of the study, including activities to determine suitability for the study.
  • Male Chinese participants, age 18-55 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • Body mass index (BMI) between 24.0 and 34.9 kilogram per square meter (kg/m^2)(both inclusive), with a body weight greater than or equal to (>=) 65.0 kilogram (kg), at screening.
  • Considered eligible based on the medical history, physical examination, and the results of vital signs, electrocardiogram and clinical laboratory tests performed during the screening visit, as judged by the investigator.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any disorder, unwillingness or inability which in the investigator's opinion might jeopardise participant's safety or compliance with the protocol
  • Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) greater than or equal to (>=) 6.5 percent (%) (48 millimoles per mole [mmol/mol]) at screening
  • Any laboratory safety parameters at screening outside the below laboratory ranges, see designated reference range documents for specific values:
  • Vitamin D (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) less than (<) 12 Nanograms per millilitre (ng/mL) (30 nanometer[nM]) at screening
  • Parathyroid hormone (PTH) outside normal range at screening
  • Total calcium outside normal range at screening
  • Amylase greater than or equal to (>=) 2 times upper limit of normal at screening
  • Lipase greater than or equal to (>=) 2 times upper limit of normal at screening
  • Calcitonin greater than or equal to (>=) 50 picograms per milliliter (pg/mL) at screening
