The Phase Ia clinical trial of HDM1002 conducted in China employed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single, escalating oral doses of HDM1002 in healthy adults. A total of 79 healthy participants were included in the study. The findings revealed that HDM1002 displayed linear pharmacokinetics across a dose range of 10mg to 600mg, with the drug showing good safety and tolerability profiles. All observed adverse events were rated as grade 1 or 2. Notably, a single dose of HDM1002 significantly lowered postprandial blood glucose levels in healthy subjects compared to the placebo, with a clear dose-dependent trend. Furthermore, high-fat meals did not affect the pharmacokinetic properties of HDM1002.
The Phase Ib clinical trial of HDM1002 in China followed a similar randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of multiple, escalating oral doses of HDM1002 in overweight and obese adults. Sixty participants took part in this trial. After 28 days of continuous treatment with doses ranging from 50mg to 400mg, HDM1002 showed good safety and tolerability. The most frequently reported adverse events were gastrointestinal in nature, predominantly mild nausea and vomiting. Subjects receiving 100mg or higher doses demonstrated significantly greater weight loss compared to the placebo group on day 28, also showing a dose-dependent effect. Participants within the target dose range experienced an average weight reduction of 4.9% to 6.8% from baseline by day 28.
