Inclusion criteria
1. Healthy males according to the assessment of the investigator, based on a complete medical history, a physical examination, vital signs (BP, PR), 12-lead ECG, and clinical laboratory tests at screening visit
2. 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
3. Age of 20 to 45 years (inclusive) at screening visit.
4. BMI of 23.0 to 40.0 kg/m2 (inclusive) with a minimum absolute body weight of 65 kg at screening visit and a stable body weight (defined as no more than 5% change) 3 months prior to screening visit.
5. Signed and dated written informed consent in accordance with ICH-GCP and local legislation prior to admission to the trial
6. Subjects who agree to minimize the risk of making their partner pregnant by fulfilling any of the following criteria starting from the first administration of trial medication until 90 days after last administration of trial medication
7. HbA1c < 6.5% at screening visit
Exclusion criteria
1. Exposure to any glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist (including combination products) within twelve months prior to screening visit, or any previous exposure to BI 456906, or history of relevant allergy or hypersensitivity (including allergy, intolerability or lack of efficacy to trial medication or drugs that belong to the GLP-1R agonist class)
2. Major surgery (major according to the investigator's assessment) performed within 12 weeks prior to randomization or planned within 6 months after screening visit, e.g. hip replacement
3. Any evidence of a concomitant disease, baseline condition, or medical history assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator including:
4. Use of drugs within 30 days prior to administration of trial medication if that might reasonably influence the results of the trial (including drugs that cause QT/QTc interval prolongation)
5. Participation in another trial where an investigational drug has been administered within 60 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to planned administration of trial medication, or current participation in another trial involving administration of investigational drug
6. Current smokers (defined as more than 10 cigarettes or 3 cigars or 3 pipes per day)
7. Inability to refrain from smoking on specified trial days
8. Alcohol abuse (consumption of more than 24 g per day) Further exclusion criteria apply
