Brief summary

The goal of this study is to learn what happens in a person's body over time when they take enlicitide decanoate and semaglutide alone or at the same time. Enlicitide decanoate is a new medicine that lowers the amount of cholesterol in a person's blood. Semaglutide is a drug used to treat type 2 diabetes. Researchers want to learn what happens to the amount of semaglutide and enlicitide decanoate in a person's blood when each drug is taken alone and when they are taken together.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of SemaglutideAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Tmax of semaglutide.
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of SemaglutideAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Cmax of semaglutide.
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to approximately 2 weeks postdose)Blood samples will be collected to determine the Tmax of enlicitide decanoate.
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve from Time 0 to 24 hours (AUC0-24hrs) of Enlicitide DecanoateAt designated timepoints (up to 24 hours postdose)Blood samples will be collected to determine the AUC0-24hrs of enlicitide decanoate.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Due to a TEAEUp to approximately 12 weeksAn adverse event (AE) means any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. An AE will be considered treatment-emergent if the onset date and time is at the time of or after first study drug administration. The number of participants who discontinue study due to a TEAE will be reported.
Number of Participants Who Experience a Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)Up to approximately 12 weeksAn adverse event (AE) means any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. An AE will be considered treatment-emergent if the onset date and time is at the time of or after first study drug administration. The number of participants who experience a TEAE will be reported.
