A Randomized, Double-Blind, Dose-Escalation, Placebo-Controlled Study of SHR-1179 Injection in Participants With Obesity

A Randomized, Double-blind, Dose-escalation, Placebo-controlled Phase I Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Subcutaneous SHR-1179 Injection in Obese Participants."

This study is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, dose-escalation, placebo-parallel-controlled Phase I clinical trial. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous injection of SHR-1179 in obese participants. For the single-ascending-dose (SAD) part in obese participants, a total of 5 dose cohorts are planned for the single-dose escalation.
