What is being measured

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

  1. Percent (%) of patients achieving at least 1 %-point HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin) reduction

    Measured: Day 0, Day 180

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percent (%) of patients with HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin) reduction at least 1 %-point and weight reduction at least 3% (NICE clinical guidelines, liraglutide only)

    Measured: Day 0, Day 180

  2. HbA1c (NGSP standard, in %) change

    Measured: Day 0, Day 180

  3. Change in weight (in kilograms)

    Measured: Day 0, Day 180

  4. Change in blood pressure (systolic, in mmHg)

    Measured: From baseline to 180 days of therapy

  5. Change in lipids (HDL, LDL and triglycerides, in mmol/L)

    Measured: Day 0, Day 180

  6. Change in creatinine

    Measured: Day 0, Day 180

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 1 site in Sweden.

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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. 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.

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?

Percent (%) of patients achieving at least 1 %-point HbA1c (glycosylated haemoglobin) reduction (time frame: Day 0, Day 180). 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 NCT02077946, 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?
