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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 semaglutide subcutaneous (s.c.; under the skin) 2.4 milligram (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.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki (2013) and International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (2016) and 21 United States (US) Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 312.120.

In-trial observation period: the uninterrupted time interval from the start of randomisation (week 0) to last trial-related subject-site contact (week 75). On-treatment observation period: the interval from the date of first trial product administration (week 0) to the date of last trial product administration (week 68) plus a 2-week follow-up period and excluding any off-treatment time intervals. Off-treatment time interval: time period with at least two consecutive missed doses.

    Notes
    [7] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: This endpoint compared 'Semaglutide 2.4 mg arm' with 'Placebo arm', thus values only for these two arms are provided.

    End point description
    SF-36 is a 36-item patient-reported survey of patient health that measures the subject's overall health-related quality of life (HRQoL). SF-36v2™ questionnaire measured 8 domains of functional health and well-being as well as 2 component summary scores (physical component summary and mental component summary). This endpoint shows results for ‘physical functioning domain’. The 0-100 scale scores from the SF-36 were converted to norm-based scores to enable a direct interpretation in relation to the distribution of the scores in the 2009 U.S. general population. In the metric of norm-based scores, 50 and 10 corresponds to the mean and standard deviation respectively. Change from week 0 in the domain scores were evaluated at week 68. A positive change score indicates an improvement since baseline. Results are based on the data from in-trial observation period. This endpoint was evaluated based on the FAS.

    Change in IWQOL-Lite for CT (physical function domain (5-items) score)
    End point description
    The Impact of Weight on Quality of Life Clinical Trials Version (IWQOL-Lite-CT) is designed to assess the impact of changes in weight on patients' quality of life within the context of clinical trials. IWQOL-Lite-CT is a 20-item questionnaire-based instrument used to assess the impact of body weight changes on subject’s overall health-related quality of life (HRQoL). All IWQOL-Lite-CT composite scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores reflecting better levels of functioning. This endpoint shows results for ‘physical function domain’. Results are based on the data from in-trial observation period which was defined as the uninterrupted time interval from the start of randomisation (week 0) to last trial-related subject-site contact. This endpoint was evaluated based on the FAS which comprised all randomised subjects. Number of subjects analysed = number of subjects with available data.

    Subjects who achieve (yes/no): Responder definition value for SF-36 physical functioning score
    End point description
    Number of subjects experiencing a meaningful within subject improvement in SF-36 Physical function after 68 weeks was determined by two thresholds. The default generic responder threshold of 4.3 is for general population. The threshold of 3.7 is for overweight/obese population in the study and calculated using patient global rating anchor questionnaires to reflect subjects’ own perspective based on Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommendations. In the reported data, number of subjects who have achieved an improvement in score >/= to threshold are inferred as “Yes” and who have not achieved an improvement in score >/= to threshold are inferred as “No”. The endpoint was evaluated based on in-trial observation period which is the uninterrupted time interval from randomization (week 0) to last trial related subject-site contact. The endpoint was evaluated based on the FAS which comprised all randomised subjects. Number of subjects analysed = number of subjects with available data.

In the reported data, number of subjects who have achieved an improvement in score >/= to threshold are inferred as “Yes” and who have not achieved an improvement in score >/= to threshold are inferred as “No”.

    Hypoglycaemic episodes with onset during the on-treatment observation period were considered treatment-emergent. On-treatment observation period was defined as the interval from the date of first trial product administration (week 0) to the date of last trial product administration (week 68) plus a 7 week follow-up period and excluding any off-treatment time intervals. Off-treatment time interval: time period with at least 7 consecutive missed doses. Severe hypoglycaemia: An episode requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon or take other corrective actions. plasma glucose (PG) concentrations may not be available during an event, but neurological recovery following the return of PG to normal is considered sufficient evidence that the event was induced by a low PG concentration. Blood glucose (BG) confirmed symptomatic hypoglycaemia: An episode that is BG confirmed by PG value <3.1 mmol/L (56 mg/dL) with symptoms consistent with hypoglycaemia.
