What this phase means
Phase 3: this treatment already looked useful in smaller studies. Now it is tested in a large group, often against standard care or a dummy treatment, to see if it should be approved.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Elecoglipron, or Placebo. The registry lists allocation as randomized. This study wants to measure the how well it works and safety of elecoglipron compared with dummy treatment (placebo) adjunct to diet and exercise for weight management, in adult participants living with obesity or overweight with or without T2DM.
They plan to enroll about 351 people at 44 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.
