Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To compare the effect of once-weekly dosing of two dose levels of semaglutide versus insulin glargine once-daily on glycaemic control after 30 weeks of treatment in insulin-naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and ICH Good Clinical Practice.
    Background therapy
    The following compounds were considered as background medication and were administered at the described doses: Metformin: doses ≥1500 mg or maximum tolerated dose. Treatment with extended/slow release was allowed Sulphonylurea (SU): doses ≥half of maximum dose allowed according to national label.

    Arm title
    Semaglutide 0.5 mg/week
    Arm description
    Subjects on semaglutide followed a fixed dose-escalation. The maintenance dose of 0.5 mg was to be reached after 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg semaglutide. Doses could not be changed during the trial after the maintenance dose had been reached. There were 49 premature dis continuations in this arm.

    One test pen was to be supplied per subject at the screening visit in order to ensure the subject`s willingness and ability to self-inject. The test pen contained semaglutide placebo, solution for injection, 1.5 mL pre-filled PDS290 pen-injector and was to be administered once. The PDS290 pen-injector for semaglutide is a prefilled pen integrated with a 1.5 mL cartridge containing semaglutide 1.34 mg/mL and is designed to be used with NovoFine®, NovoFine® Plus and NovoTwist® disposable needles Once weekly (same day of the week) administered by s.c. injection in thigh, abdomen or upper arm, at any time of the day

    Arm title
    Semaglutide 1.0 mg/week
    Arm description
    Subjects randomised to semaglutide followed a fixed dose-escalation regimen, The maintenance dose of 1.0 mg was to be reached after 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg, followed by 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.5 mg semaglutide. Doses could not be changed during the trial after the maintenance dose had been reached. There were 55 premature dis continuations in this arm.

    Arm description
    Subjects on insulin glargine were to start on 10 IU subcutaneous(s.c.) injected once daily (OD). The insulin dose adjustment had to aim to reach a pre-breakfast FPG of 4.0 to <5.5 mmol/L (71- <100 mg/dL). There were 26 premature dis continuations in this arm.

    End point description
    The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQs) questionnaire was to be used to assess a subject’s treatment satisfaction. This questionnaire contains 8 items and measures the treatment for diabetes (including insulin, tablets and/or diet) in terms of convenience, flexibility and general feelings regarding treatment. These analyses were done using the FAS. The full analysis set (FAS) included all randomised subjects who had received at least one dose of randomised semaglutide 0.5 mg, semaglutide 1.0 mg or insulin glargine. The result presented is the 'Treatment Satisfaction' summary score, which is the sum of 6 of the 8 items of the DTSQs questionnaire.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Adverse events were reported from the first trial-related activity after the subject had signed the informed consent until the end of the post-treatment follow-up period. (Week 0-week 30 and 5 week follow-up period)
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an AE that had onset date (or increased in severity) during the ‘on-treatment’ observation period. The number of deaths causally related to treatment is the data considered to present under ‘total number of deaths resulting from adverse events’

    Reporting group title
    Semaglutide 0.5 mg/week
    Reporting group description
    Subjects on semaglutide followed a fixed dose-escalation. The maintenance dose of 0.5 mg was to be reached after 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg semaglutide. Doses could not be changed during the trial after the maintenance dose had been reached.

    Reporting group title
    Insulin glargine
    Reporting group description
    Subjects on insulin glargine were to start on 10 IU subcutaneous (S.C.) injected once daily ( OD) The insulin dose adjustment had to aim to reach a pre-breakfast FPG of 4.0 to <5.5 mmol/L (71- <100 mg/dL).

    Reporting group title
    Semaglutide 1.0 mg/week
    Reporting group description
    Subjects randomised to semaglutide followed a fixed dose-escalation regimen, The maintenance dose of 1.0 mg was to be reached after 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.25 mg, followed by 4 doses (4 weeks) of 0.5 mg semaglutide. Doses could not be changed during the trial after the maintenance dose had been reached.
