Study Summary

This trial compares 3 doses of a potential weight loss drug to placebo in people with and without diabetes to see which dose works best.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with obesity or overweight, who've tried and failed to lose weight through diet. Cohort A includes those without diabetes; Cohort B includes those with Type 2 diabetes, managed by diet/exercise or certain medications. Excluded are individuals with weight changes >5kg in the last 3 months, specific psychiatric disorders, history of pancreatitis, or genetic conditions like MEN-2.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing three doses of AMG 133 against a placebo to see which dose is best at helping adults lose weight and maintain that loss over a year. It's divided into two groups: one for people just overweight/obese (Cohort A) and another for those also dealing with Type 2 diabetes (Cohort B).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, similar drugs often cause digestive issues like nausea or diarrhea, potential low blood sugar in diabetics, injection site reactions if it's an injectable drug, and sometimes headaches or fatigue.

Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Cohort B: AMG 133Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Part 1: Cohort B will consist of participants with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants will be randomized to receive AMG 133 or placebo in 1 of 4 dose cohorts. Participants will then have the option to begin part 2 if they meet the entry criteria. Part 2: Participants that continue into part 2 will be re-randomized to receive AMG 133 or Placebo in 1 of 4 dose cohorts.
Group II: Cohort A: AMG 133Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Part 1: Cohort A will consist of participants without a diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants will be randomized to receive AMG 133 or placebo in 1 of 7 dose cohorts. Participants will then have the option to begin part 2 if they meet the entry criteria. Part 2: Participants that continue into part 2 will be re-randomized to receive AMG 133 or Placebo in 1 of 4 dose cohorts.
Group III: Cohort A: PlaceboPlacebo Group2 Interventions
Part 1: Cohort A will consist of participants without a diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants will be randomized to receive AMG 133 or placebo in 1 of 7 dose cohorts . Participants will then have the option to begin part 2 if they meet the entry criteria. Part 2: Participants that continue into part 2 will be re-randomized to receive AMG 133 or Placebo in 1 of 4 dose cohorts.
