About the MARITIME-2 study

The MARITIME-2 study is for people living with type 2 diabetes and obesity or who are overweight. In this study, we are exploring if an investigational medicine (a monthly injection) is safe to use, and whether it can help people with type 2 diabetes to lose weight and manage weight-related conditions.

Who can take part?

Amgen is currently enrolling for this trial.

You, or someone you care for, may be able to take part if you/they:

  • are 18 years of age or older,
  • have type 2 diabetes,
  • have obesity or are overweight.

What will this study involve?

The MARITIME-2 study will last up to 88 weeks (a little under 2 years). Participants will receive either the investigational medicine or a placebo, which contains no actual medicine. A placebo looks the same as the investigational medicine.
