What is RO7795081?

RO7795081 is an investigational oral small molecule developed by Roche Holding AG for metabolic conditions. It is being studied in obesity or overweight, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and renal impairment. It has not been approved by any regulatory agency and remains in clinical development.

What is RO7795081 used for?

RO7795081 is being studied for obesity or overweight, including overweight with at least one weight-related comorbidity, for type 2 diabetes mellitus, and for renal impairment. These are investigational uses only. No regulatory approval has been granted, and the drug remains in clinical development.

Who makes RO7795081?

RO7795081 is developed by Roche Holding AG, which trades on the OTC market under the ticker RHHBY. Roche is running the clinical program, including Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies in obesity or overweight, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and renal impairment.

What phase is RO7795081 in?

RO7795081 is in Phase 2 clinical development. A completed Phase 2 trial evaluated daily oral RO7795081 in participants with obesity or overweight plus at least one weight-related comorbidity, and another Phase 2 trial compares doses with placebo or semaglutide in type 2 diabetes.

What clinical trials is RO7795081 in?

RO7795081 has four registered trials. NCT07081958, a completed Phase 2 obesity or overweight study, and NCT07112872, an active Phase 2 type 2 diabetes study comparing doses with placebo or semaglutide, are the largest. Phase 1 studies NCT07741604 in renal impairment and NCT07499050 in Chinese adults with obesity or overweight are also listed.

Is RO7795081 FDA approved?

No. RO7795081 is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA. It is still in clinical development, with Phase 2 trials in obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes mellitus and Phase 1 trials in renal impairment and in Chinese adults with obesity or overweight.
