What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the effects of two different doses of distal jejunal-release dextrose beads combined with a gel composition on body weight reduction in obese adults with weight-related health issues. This phase IIa randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to show whether these treatments provide better weight loss compared to placebo beads combined with the same gel composition. Participants will be assigned to one of four groups receiving either 12 g or 2 g of the active dextrose beads APHD-012 or APHD-002 or matching placebo beads APHP-012 or APHP-002. These treatments are taken twice daily. The study compares the effects of these doses over a 24-week period. During the study, participants will undergo assessments including body weight, blood pressure, blood lipid levels, fasting glucose, and HbA1c measurements at 24 weeks. Researchers will monitor safety and adherence throughout. The total participation lasts at least 24 weeks, during which weight and metabolic health are closely evaluated.
