A Study to Test How Well Different Doses of BI 3034701 Are Tolerated by Japanese Healthy People and Japanese People With Obesity or Overweight
A Phase I, Single-blinded, Randomised, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Multiple Rising Doses of BI 3034701 in Japanese Male and Female Participants With Obesity/Overweight and Otherwise Healthy (Part 1) and Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Rising Doses of BI 3034701 in Japanese Male and Female Healthy Volunteers (Part 2)

Brief Summary
Part 1: To investigate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of BI 3034701 in Japanese male and female participants with body mass index (BMI) ≥27.0 kg/m² or more following subcutaneous administration of multiple rising doses over 16 weeks. Part 2: To investigate safety, tolerability, and PK of BI 3034701 in Japanese male and female healthy participants with BMI ≥23.0 to \<27.0 kg/m² following subcutaneous administration of multiple rising doses over 7 weeks.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Occurrence of any treatment-emergent adverse event assessed as drug-related by the investigator
Expressed as the percentage of trial participants treated with investigational drug who experience such an event
Part 1: up to Week 19, Part 2: up to Week 10
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to 168 hours (AUC0-168) following a single dose and multiple doses of BI 3034701
Part 1: up to Week 17, Part 2: up to Week 8
Maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma (Cmax) following a single dose and multiple doses of BI 3034701
Part 1: up to Week 19, Part 2: up to Week 10
Change from baseline in body weight at the end of 16 weeks treatment (only evaluated for Part 1)
Part 1: at Baseline and at Week 16

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Japanese ethnicity, according to the following criteria: born in Japan, have lived outside of Japan \< 10 years, and have parents and grandparents who are Japanese
- Part 1: Male or female trial participants according to the assessment of the investigator, as based on a complete medical history including a physical examination, vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate), 12-lead electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory tests
- Part 2: Healthy male or female trial participants according to the assessment of the investigator, as based on a complete medical history including a physical examination, vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate), 12-lead electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory tests
- Parts 1 and 2: Age of 18 to 64 years (inclusive)
You may not qualify if:
- Any finding in the medical examination (including blood pressure, pulse rate or electrocardiogram) deviating from normal and assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator
- Repeated measurement of systolic blood pressure outside the range of 90 to 140 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure outside the range of 50 to 90 mmHg, or pulse rate outside the range of 50 to 90 beats per minute
- Any laboratory value outside the reference range that the investigator considers to be of clinical relevance and, in particular: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) above upper limit of normal (ULN) + 20%, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) above ULN + 20%, gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) above ULN + 20%, Lipase or amylase above ULN + 20%, bilirubin above 1.2x ULN (except for cases of Gilbert's Syndrome), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 80 mL/min/1.73 m²
- Part 1: Body weight increase or decrease (self-reported) of greater than 5% in the 3 months prior to screening

Data Sharing
- IPD Sharing
- Will not share
Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents. Exceptions might apply, e.g. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (in case of low number of patients and therefore limitations with anonymization).
