A Phase 1 interventional study of UBT37034 and Placebo in Overweight , Obesity, sponsored by The United Bio-Technology (Hengqin) Co., Ltd.. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 55 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-10-14.
Sponsored by The United Bio-Technology (Hengqin) Co., Ltd. (part of The United Laboratories International Holdings Limited) · Phase 1, Interventional, and Treatment
This is a study of UBT37034 for injection in participants who have obesity or are overweight. The main purpose is to learn more about the safety, tolerability, drug concentration, drug action and immune response of repeated UBT37034 administration. This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with multiple ascending doses. A total of 40 participants will be enrolled in 4 different dose groups. Participants will receive UBT37034 or placebo in an 8:2 random ratio with dose titration. The study will last up to 24 weeks and includes screening, treatment and safety follow-up periods.
3,767 studies on the registry are indexed under Overweight; 863 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 40 is below the median of 73 across 3,263 interventional studies indexed under Overweight.

Start is estimated for Oct 2026; primary completion for Aug 2027, 10 months later.
Of 237 industry-sponsored phase 1 interventional studies under Overweight, half reached primary completion within 9 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 14. This study's planned 10 months is above that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 259 studies reached it within 9 months; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 15.
