  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

This study aims to compare the effects of KAI-9531, semaglutide, and a placebo on weight loss in people with obesity but without diabetes. KAI-9531 and semaglutide are drugs given as shots under the skin once a week. A placebo is a fake treatment that looks like the real drug but doesn't have any active ingredients. The goal is to see if KAI-9531 helps people lose more weight than the other two options.

Key points:

  • Participants need a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 35 or more, which is a way to measure body fat based on height and weight.
  • You shouldn't have diabetes or use certain medications that could cause weight changes.
  • If you join, you will need to attend weekly visits for the injections and monitoring.
