About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of the Effect of Liraglutide in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome on Risk Markers of Vascular Thrombosis.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5-10% of women in fertile age. PCOS is associated with metabolic syndrom, diabetes and and increased risk og cardiovascular disease.

The study investigates the effect af intervention with GLP-1-analog on risk markers of cardiovascular disease in women with PCOS.

70 women will be included in af RCT.

Hypothesis: GLP-1-analog treatment in women with PCOS (without diabetes) will result in a beneficial reduction in risk markers of vascular thrombosis and early cardiovascular disease.

Being tested
Liraglutide for 26 weeks, placebo
Medical subject headings
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Cardiovascular Diseases

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Liraglutide for 26 weeks in people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Cardiovascular Disease, run by Jens Faber at 3 sites in Denmark.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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 28 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Denmark. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Feb 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change in Endogenous Thrombin Potential (ETP) (time frame: at time 0 and 26 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02073929, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Feb 2019.
