What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Epicardial Fat Thickness

    Epicardial fat thickness measured in mm via ultrasound

    Measured: Baseline, 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in serum immunoglobulins

    Immunoglobin levels assessed in g/L will be evaluated using serum blood samples

    Measured: Baseline, 12 months

  2. Change in plasma ceramide levels

    Plasma ceramide levels will be evaluated in umol/L

    Measured: Baseline, 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Liraglutide in people with Monoclonal Gammopathies and Overweight, run by University of Miami.

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 3 inclusion and 12 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 Epicardial Fat Thickness (time frame: Baseline, 12 months). 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 21 Sep 2020.
