Evaluation of NNC0487-0111 Injections for Adults with Excess Weight and Obstructive Sleep Apnea Not Using Airway Pressure Treatment

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the effects of NNC0487-0111 in adults with excess body weight and obstructive sleep apnea who are not using positive airway pressure treatment. This Phase 3 trial aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of this medication in helping participants lose weight and improve their sleep apnea. The study compares NNC0487-0111 with a placebo, which is an inactive treatment given by chance to participants. Participants receive weekly injections of either NNC0487-0111 or a matching placebo under the skin using pre-filled pen injectors applied to the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm. Both groups follow a reduced-calorie diet and increase physical activity during the study. The treatment period lasts for 80 weeks, during which researchers monitor changes in body weight and sleep apnea severity. Throughout the study, participants undergo regular assessments including body weight measurements and evaluation of the apnea-hypopnea index AHI to track sleep apnea severity. Additional tests measure sleep-related impairment, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and blood sugar control. Safety is monitored by tracking any adverse events during the 84 weeks of the study. Participants progress is carefully followed to understand the impact of the treatment on weight and sleep apnea over time.
