This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-range finding study of the efficacy, safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of multiple doses of aleniglipron in participants living with overweight or obesity with at least one weight-related comorbidity. Participants will be randomized to aleniglipron or placebo in a ratio of 3:1 within each Cohort receiving multiple-ascending, QD doses of aleniglipron or placebo in titration steps of 4 weeks duration for a total of 36 weeks of treatment. At the end of the study (after completing 36 weeks of treatment), participants will be offered to continue with an open-label extension (OLE) where they will receive aleniglipron for an additional 36 weeks.
Phase 2 trials begin testing efficacy in a larger patient group (100–300). This is often where biotech binary events occur — positive Phase 2 data can significantly advance a company's pipeline narrative, while failures can be terminal for a program.
Enrollment is complete. The trial is in its follow-up or data collection phase — a readout may occur on or near the primary completion date.
Structure Therapeutics (GPCR) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company C (59/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
