It works like a natural hormone your body already makes that helps control appetite and metabolism.
In this study, we’re comparing weekly injections of the investigational medication to a placebo. All participants will also follow a reduced-calorie diet and increase physical activity. The entire study lasts about 84 weeks, and the main results are measured at Week 60.
If you qualify and choose to join, we’ll follow you closely to monitor your progress, safety, and overall experience.
