Study arms

  • Experimental
    Intervention

    The subjects receive sequential once weekly and low frequency subcutaneous injection of HRS 9531

    Drug: HRS9531

  • Placebo comparator
    Control

    The subjects receive low frequency subcutaneous injection of the placebo

    Drug: HRS9531 placebo

Interventions

  • DrugHRS9531

    HRS9531 escalated to the protocol-specified dose once weekly injection for 24 weeks ,then low frequency injection for 12 weeks.

  • DrugHRS9531 placebo

    HRS9531 placebo low frequency injection for 12 weeks.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent Change in Body Weight from 24 weeks

    Percentage change in body weight from the low-frequency injection phase for HRS9531 compared with placebo

    Time frame: 36 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Energy intake change from 24 weeks

    Differences in energy intake changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  2. Energy expenditure change from 24 weeks

    Differences in energy expenditure changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  3. Metabolic adaptation from 24 weeks

    Differences in metabolic adaptation changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24(Metabolic adaptation=Actual measured resting energy expenditure-Predicted resting energy expenditure. The Actual measured resting energy expenditure will be measured using the Maastricht Instruments Room Calorimeter ADVANCE. The predicted energy expenditure will be fitted by multiple linear regression according to the age, sex, and body composition information of the subjects at baseline.)

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  4. Systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure change from 24 weeks

    Differences in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  5. Body fat rate change from 24 weeks

    Differences in body fat rate changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  6. Serum total cholesterol change from 24 weeks

    Differences in Serum total cholesterol changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  7. Triglyceride change from 24 weeks

    Differences in Triglyceride changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  8. Nonestesterified fatty acid change from 24 weeks

    Differences in nonestesterified fatty acid changes between the HRS9531 group and the placebo group from week36-week24

    Time frame: 24-36 weeks

  9. Energy intake at baseline

    Differences in energy intake at baseline in obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects.

    Time frame: 0 weeks

  10. Energy expenditure at baseline

    Differences in energy expenditure at baseline in obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects.

    Time frame: 0 weeks

  11. Appetite at baseline (assessed by Visual Analogue Scale subjective rating scale)

    Differences in appetite at baseline in obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects (Appetite was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale subjective rating scale. On a standard scale of 100mm in length, the left end (0mm) means "not at all" and the right end (100mm) means "extremely").

    Time frame: 0 weeks

  12. Percent Change in Body Weight at 24 weeks

    Obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects, difference in body weight change after once weekly injection of HRS9531

    Time frame: 24 weeks

  13. Appetite at 24 weeks (assessed by Visual Analogue Scale subjective rating scale)

    Obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects, difference in appetite after once weekly injection of HRS9531(Appetite was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale subjective rating scale. On a standard scale of 100mm in length, the left end (0mm) means "not at all" and the right end (100mm) means "extremely").

    Time frame: 24 weeks

  14. Energy expenditure at 24 weeks

    Obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects, difference in energy expenditure after once weekly injection of HRS9531

    Time frame: 24 weeks

  15. Energy intake at 24 weeks

    Obese diabetic subjects, relative to obese non-diabetic subjects, difference in Energy intake after once weekly injection of HRS9531

    Time frame: 24 weeks

Other outcomes
