What is this trial about?

A phase 2 study to assess the efficacy of bimagrumab alone or in addition to semaglutide to assess efficacy and safety in overweight or obese men and women

What are the Participation Requirements?

Key Inclusion Criteria:

- A written informed consent must be obtained before any study-related assessments are
performed.

- Men and women between 18 and 80 years, inclusive; women of child-bearing potential
(defined as those who are not post-menopausal or post-surgical sterilization) must
meet both of the following criteria:

- Two negative pregnancy tests (at screening and at randomization, prior to
dosing)

- Use of intrauterine device, from at least 3 months before the baseline visit
through at least 4 months after the last dose of bimagrumab/placebo i.v., and
an additional contraceptive (barrier) method from screening through at least 4
months after the last dose of bimagrumab/placebo i.v.

- Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 or BMI ≥ 27 with one or more obesity-associated
comorbidities (e.g., hypertension, insulin resistance, sleep apnea, or dyslipidemia)

- Stable body weight (± 5 kg) within 90 days of screening, and body weight <150 kg

- Have a history of at least one self-reported unsuccessful behavioral effort to lose
body weight

- Able to communicate well with the Investigator, comply with the study requirements
and adhere to the diet and activity programs for the study duration

Key Exclusion Criteria:

- History of, or known hypersensitivity to, monoclonal antibody drugs or a
contraindication to semaglutide (Ozempic® or Wegovy®)

- Use of other investigational drugs at the time of enrollment or within 30 days or 5
half-lives of enrollment, whichever is longer, or longer if required by local
regulations

- Treatment with any medication for the indication of obesity within the past 30 days
before screening

- Diagnosis of diabetes requiring current use of any antidiabetic drug or HbA1c ≥ 6.5%
Note: Metabolic syndrome is not an exclusion, even if managed with an anti-diabetic
drug such as metformin or an SGLT2 inhibitor. A diagnosis of prediabetes or impaired
glucose tolerance managed exclusively with non-pharmacologic approaches (e.g., diet
and exercise) is not an exclusion.

- Any chronic infections likely to interfere with study conduct or interpretation such
as hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
History of hepatitis A or hepatitis C successfully treated is not exclusionary.
Active COVID-19 infection.

- Donation or loss of 400 mL or more of blood within 8 weeks prior to initial dosing,
or longer if required by local regulation, or plasma donation (> 250 mL) within 14
days prior to the first dose

- Any disorder, unwillingness, or inability not covered by any of the other exclusion
criteria, which in the Investigator's opinion, might jeopardize the participant's
safety or compliance with the protocol
