About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Controlled Study on the Improvement of Body Weight Among Overweight and Obese Patients Through Different Smeglutide Administration Methods

Investigators determined to detect the effect of smeglutide on body weight and metabolic indexes among overweight and obese participants through two different dosing programs.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be randomized into either group. One group will start from 0.25mg per week for four weeks, then increase to 0.5mg per week for four weeks, and 1mg per week maintenance dose for 8 weeks. The other group dosage regime depends on the tolerance of the semaglutide from participants. The dosage will stabilize on the dose how much participant could tolerate. At the end of 16 weeks treatment, comparison will be carried out on weight change before and after treatment and (1) Comparison of different administration methods (standards and titrations) on participant compliance, appetite and quality of life improvement; (2) Comparison of metabolism (waist hip circumference, body fat and body composition, blood pressure, blood lipid, blood glucose, insulin resistance) in different administration modes; (3) Comparison of adverse reactions of metabolic drugs in different administration modes.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact xiaolong zhao (86-13501827230, xiaolongzhao@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

weight change in kilograms (time frame: 16 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 NCT05616052, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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?
