A Phase 3, Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Event-driven, Cardiovascular Safety Study With BI 456906 Administered Subcutaneously Compared With Placebo in Participants With Overweight or Obesity With Established Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) or Chronic Kidney Disease, and/or at Least Two Weight-related Complications or Risk Factors for CVD

Description

This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have a body mass index (BMI)bof 27 kg/m2 or more. People can take part if they have cardiovascular or chronic kidney disease. People who have at least 2 health problems related to their weight or risks of cardiovascular disease can participate. Participants must have previously tried to lose weight by changing their diet. The purpose of this study is to find out whether people with overweight or obesity who take a medicine called survodutide (BI 456906) are less or more likely to develop serious cardiovascular problems. It also aims to find out whether health parameters like blood pressure improve. Overweight and obesity are linked to cardiovascular disease. Survodutide is a medicine that is developed to help people with obesity or overweight to lose weight. Participants are divided into 3 groups of almost equal size. 2 groups get different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but
