    A Study Comparing the Injection Site Pain Experience After the Injection of Semaglutide B and Semaglutide D With 2 Different Injection Pens, a Compound for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity

    NCT04143945

    28 Oct 2019 to 4 Jan 2020

Registry summary

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

This study in healthy men and women looks at the injection site experience of the DV3396 pen to that of the PDS290 pens when both pens are used to deliver 0.25 mg semaglutide subcutaneously (s.c., under the skin). Participants will receive 2 single doses of semaglutide 0.25 mg on 1 day. The 2 injections will be given at least 30 minutes apart, one in each side of the stomach. Participants will be in the clinic research center for 1 day. A follow-up phone call will take place between 4 and 5 weeks after the injections were given.

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Intensity of Injection Site Pain

    Time frame · After 1 minute of each injection (Day 1)

    Registry description

    The intensity of injection site pain was measured on a visual analogue scale (VAS). The VAS consists of a horizontal 100 millimetres (mm) line where 0 mm corresponded to no pain and 100 mm corresponded to unbearable pain. After each injection, the participants rated their pain perception at the VAS by marking a vertical line across the 100 mm line. The distance (mm) between the endpoint "no pain" and the vertical line on the VAS was recorded and analysed.
