Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Known allergy to the investigational drug or its excipients, or to neuropeptide Y receptor agonists or biologics; or current allergic disease or hypersensitivity constitution; 2. Use of weight-affecting drugs within 3 months prior to screening, including but not limited to: (1) Drugs with a mechanism of action similar to neuropeptide Y receptor agonists for weight loss or glucose-lowering; (2) Approved or investigational weight-loss drugs (e.g., GLP-1 analogs, orlistat, etc.); (3) Tricyclic antidepressants, psychiatric drugs, or sedatives (e.g., mirtazapine, paroxetine, olanzapine, valproate and its derivatives); (4) Systemic corticosteroids (intravenous/oral/intra-articular injection); 3. Use of any over-the-counter drugs, prescription drugs, traditional Chinese medicine, and/or nutritional supplements within 14 days prior to dosing, or planned use during the study of the following: (1) Drugs reducing gastrointestinal motility, including but not limited to anticholinergics, antispasmodics, 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, dopamine antagonists, and opioids; (2) Drugs known to prolong QT/QTc interval; (3) Vaccination within 1 month prior to screening or planned vaccination during the trial; (4) Other drugs that may affect trial evaluation; 4. History or evidence of any of the following conditions: (1) Diagnosed with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, or other types of diabetes; (2) Symptomatic hypoglycemia requiring medical intervention within 12 months prior to enrollment, or recurrent symptomatic hypoglycemia (>=2 episodes) within the past 6 months; (3) Concomitant gastroparesis or other gastrointestinal motility disorders (e.g., pyloric obstruction, intestinal obstruction); uncontrolled gastroesophageal reflux disease; or other gastrointestinal diseases assessed by the investigator as increasing risk after drug administration (e.g., severe active ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, acute or chronic symptomatic gastroenteritis, functional gastrointestinal disorders, intestinal tuberculosis); (4) History of chronic cardiac, renal, or hepatic disease (excluding mild fatty liver in healthy subjects and mild-to-moderate fatty liver in overweight/obese subjects); or history of malignancy within the past 5 years (excluding adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ, basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, locally cured prostate cancer after radical surgery, or ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast after radical surgery); (5) History of depression or severe psychiatric disorders, including but not limited to suicidal ideation or attempts, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder; (6) PHQ-9 score >=5 at screening; (7) History of clinically significant or currently apparent diseases/abnormalities (including but not limited to disorders of the nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, hematologic/lymphatic, immune, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, metabolic, or skeletal systems, or neurologic/psychiatric conditions); 5. Any abnormal laboratory findings at screening meeting the following criteria: (1) HbA1c >=6.5%, or fasting glucose >=6.1 mmol/L in healthy subjects, >=7.0 mmol/L in overweight/obese subjects; (2) Hepatic or renal impairment: serum ALT or AST >2× upper limit of normal (ULN), serum total bilirubin >1.5× ULN (if ALT/AST are near but not exceeding 2× ULN and total bilirubin near but not exceeding 1.5× ULN, inclusion must be assessed by the investigator); estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL·min^-1·1.73m^
