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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To compare the effect of semaglutide subcutaneous (s.c.) 2.4 mg once-weekly versus semaglutide placebo I/II as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity in subjects with overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) on body weight.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To compare the effect of semaglutide s.c. 2.4 mg once-weekly:
    1. versus semaglutide placebo I/II as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity in subjects with overweight or obesity and T2D on:
    - Cardiovascular risk factors
    - Clinical Outcome Assessments
    - Glycaemic control
    2. versus semaglutide s.c. 1.0 mg once-weekly as an adjunct to reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity in subjects with overweight or obesity and T2D on factors related to body weight.
    3. To compare the effect of semaglutide s.c. 1.0 mg once-weekly versus semaglutide placebo I/II as an adjunct to reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity in subjects with overweight or obesity and T2D on glycaemic control.
    4. To compare the safety and tolerability of semaglutide s.c. 2.4 mg once-weekly versus semaglutide placebo I/II as an adjunct to reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity in subjects with overweight or obesity and T2D.
