A Study of LY4167586 in Participants With Obesity or Overweight Who Are Otherwise Healthy

March 6, 2026 updated by: Eli Lilly and Company

A Phase 1, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Single Ascending Dose-Escalation Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of LY4167586 in Participants With Obesity or Overweight Who Are Otherwise Healthy

The purpose of this study is to look at how safe and well-tolerated LY4167586 is in participants with obesity or overweight who are otherwise healthy. Blood tests will be performed to check how much LY4167586 gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it following a single administration. Participation in the study will last approximately 7 months.
