Brief Summary

This study will comprise a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, multiple ascending dose, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study of ZT002 in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Detailed Description

This study is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-ascending-dose Phase Id/IIa clinical study in Chinese T2DM subjects after diet and exercise intervention and/or treatment with oral hypoglycemic agent to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical efficacy of ZT002 injection in adult subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants in each cohort will be randomized to receive a multiple SC doses of either ZT002 or matching placebo every 2 weeks.

2. Use of only one oral hypoglycemic agent (including metformin, α-glucosidase inhibitors, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 [DPP-4] inhibitors, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 [SGLT2] inhibitors) in the 12 weeks prior to screening, but no further use in the 14 days prior to screening;

4. At screening and before randomization: 7.0% ≤ glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤ 10.5% (hospital laboratory);

5. At screening and before randomization: fasting venous blood glucose ≤ 13.9 mmol/L (hospital laboratory);

Exclusion Criteria

1. History of specific allergies (asthma, eczema, etc.) or allergic constitution, or history of allergy to two or more drugs and foods, especially to the investigational drug and its excipients or GLP-1-containing drugs;

2. Confirmed or suspected diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus or specific types of diabetes mellitus (monogenic diabetes syndrome, cystic fibrosis, pancreatitis, drug or chemically induced diabetes mellitus, etc.) for other causes prior to screening;

3. History of acute and chronic pancreatitis, history of symptomatic gallbladder disease (except for cholecystectomy), history of pancreatic injury, and other high risk factors for pancreatitis prior to screening;

4. Previous personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or type 2 multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome (MEN2); or hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism on stable dose medication for less than 3 months;

5. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome (HHS), diabetic lactic acidosis, or hyperosmolar nonketotic diabetic coma within 12 months prior to screening;

6. Proliferative retinopathy, maculopathy, symptomatic diabetic neuropathy, intermittent claudication, and diabetic foot that are unstable or require treatment within 12 months prior to screening;
