Are you Struggling With Obesity, or Being Overweight?
Would you like to take part?
As a volunteer in a research study, you’ll receive study-related medical care from the study doctor and regular follow-up of your health to monitor the effectiveness of the care you’ll receive. The results of this research will be used to find out if the investigational medication being studied will be of benefit to others struggling with obesity and weight loss, and whether it will be made widely available to all Canadians trying to manage obesity. Study volunteers are an important part of moving medical care forward.
You may qualify to participate in this study if you:
- Are an adult, aged 18 years or older
- Have a current diagnosis of obesity (BMI of 30.0 kg/m2 to 50.0 kg/m2), OR
- Are overweight (BMI of 27.0 kg/m2 to <30.0 kg/m2) and also have at least 1 prespecified, weight-related comorbidity (hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, or obstructive sleep apnea), at the screening visit.
You may not qualify to participate if you:
- Have a current diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes
- Have experienced a body weight change of >5% within the past 12 weeks prior to screening
