A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase 2 Study of TG103 Injection in the Management of Non-diabetic Overweight or Obesity

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel phase 2 study to evaluate efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetic characteristics and immunogenicity of TG103 injection for weight management in non-diabetic patients with overweight in the presence of comorbidities or obesity, in addition to lifestyle intervention.

• Overweight or obesity due to disease or drug; or weight increase due to non-fat mass increase; or monogenic obesity.
• Medications or products which are judged by investigators to cause change in weight and influence trial evaluations have been used within 12 weeks before screening or will be used during study.
