A Study to Investigate Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of LAE103 or LAE103 in Combination With LAE102 in Healthy Overweight/Obese Participants

Recruiting now · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Overweight and Obesity

In brief

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of LAE103 injection in healthy overweight/obese participants or healthy postmenopausal women. Study will also evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary pharmacodynamic effect of multiple dose injections in overweight/obese participants. In addition, the study will also investigate the safety, tolerability of a single-dose co-administration of LAE102 and LAE103 in healthy overweight/obese participants.
