Trial summary

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to investigate the bioequivalence (assessment of the expected biological equivalence of two pharmaceutical drug products with identical active ingredient) between subcutaneous injections of semaglutide produced by two manufacturing processes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Area under the plasma semaglutide concentration curve

    Measured: 0-4 weeks after a single dose s.c. semaglutide administration

  2. Cmax, the maximum plasma semaglutide concentration

    Measured: 20-40 hours after a single dose s.c. semaglutide administration

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The area under the plasma semaglutide concentration curve

    Measured: From time 0 to infinity after a single dose s.c. semaglutide administration

  2. tmax, time to Cmax of semaglutide

    Measured: 20-40 hours

  3. t½, terminal elimination half-life of semaglutide

    Measured: 140-200 hours

  4. Incidence of adverse events (AEs)

    Measured: From first dosing to follow-up (5-7 weeks after the second dosing)

  5. Hypoglycaemic episodes

    Measured: From first dosing to follow-up (5-7 weeks after the second dosing)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing semaglutide in people with Diabetes and Healthy, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Area under the plasma semaglutide concentration curve (time frame: 0-4 weeks after a single dose s.c. semaglutide administration). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Jun 2014.
