About this trial
This is a 24 weeks, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo, parallel-controlled Phase IIb trail comparing the efficacy and safety of MDR-001 tablet versus placebo as an adjunct to a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity in subjects with overweight or obesity, and to explore the optimal dose selection to support the subsequent Pivotal trial.
