    Low Dose Liraglutide and Metformin vs. High Dose Liraglutide Alone in Treatment of Obesity

    NCT02909933

    Jul 2015 to Oct 2015

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

Weight reduction is the most important treatment target when polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is linked to obesity. Liraglutide (LIRA) in dose of 3 mg was recently approved as an anti-obesity drug. Metformin could enhance weight lowering potential of liraglutide. We investigates short term interventions with low dose liraglutide in combination with metformin and high dose liraglutide alone influence on significant weight reduction in obese women with PCOS.
