Summary

This trial will test a new drug called CT-388 at different doses to see if it is effective and safe for overweight or obese people with Type 2 diabetes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-75 who are overweight or obese with Type 2 diabetes. They should have tried diet and exercise without success, have an HbA1c level between 7% and 10.5%, and a BMI of at least 25 kg/m^2. Participants may be managing their diabetes with diet, exercise, metformin, or SGLT-2 inhibitors.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of CT-388 in three different doses compared to a placebo in controlling blood sugar levels for those with obesity and Type 2 diabetes. It's randomized (participants are put into groups by chance), double-blind (neither participants nor researchers know who gets what treatment), and placebo-controlled.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of CT-388 aren't listed here, common ones for new diabetes medications can include nausea, low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), digestive issues like diarrhea or constipation, weight changes, urinary tract infections from increased urination if it affects kidneys.
