Registry summary

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

Introduction: The increasing prevalence of obesity is particularly pronounced among adolescents. Currently available treatment options consist of structured lifestyle interventions. However, 25 % of adolescents do not respond to lifestyle treatment, why new effective treatment strategies are needed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of lifestyle interventions combined with the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide to young adults with otherwise treatment resistant obesity. Methods and analysis: This is an investigator-initiated, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. 180-270 young adults (age 18-28) will be recruited from The Childrens Obesity Clinic (TCOC), Department of Pediatrics, Holbæk Hospital. Based on their previous response to the TCOC protocol the participants will be divided in four groups: Group A: Non-responders: 55-85 young adults with obesity (BMI≥30 kg/m2) who have not reduced adiposity, defined as BMI SDS reduction \<0.1, during the structured lifestyle counselling as children. Group B: Insufficient responders: 55-85 young adults who have reduced adiposity, defined as BMI SDS reduction \>0.25, during the structured lifestyle counselling as children but still have obesity as young adults (BMI≥30 kg/m2) Group C: Excellent responders: 35-50 young adults, who have reduced adiposity, defined as BMI SDS reduction \>0.5, during the structured lifestyle counselling as children and no longer have obesity as young adults (BMI\<30 kg/m2) Group D: Population-based reference group (normal weight development): 35-50 young adults, who have participated in The Holbaek Study as children. Group A and B are randomized 2:1 to either semaglutide or placebo for 68 weeks. Group C and D will attend baseline examinations only and not undergo intervention. The primary endpoint is change in BMI from randomization to end-of-treatment. Ethics and dissemination: The trial has been approved by the Danish Medicines Agency (EudraCT 2019-002274-31) and by the ethical committee of the Capital Region of Denmark (H-20039422). The trial will be conducted in agreement with the Declaration of Helsinki and monitored to follow the guidelines for good clinical practice. Results will be submitted for publication in international peer-reviewed scientific journals.

    Registry description

    Weight will be measured to the nearest 0.1 kg. The same set of scales should ideally be used throughout the trial. Weight should be measured in a fasting state without shoes and wearing light indoor clothes. Height will be measured to the nearest 0.1 cm.

    Registry description

    Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans will be performed in fasting state to measure body fat mass (kg).

    Time frame · Change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans will be performed in fasting state to measure body fat percentage (%).

  3. Change in body composition (fat free mass)

    Time frame · Change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans will be performed in fasting state to measure fat-free mass (kg).

  4. Change in visceral fat and liver fat

    Time frame · Change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    MRI will be performed in fasting state to measure fat content

  5. Change in metabolic syndrome

    Time frame · Change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    z-score

  6. Change in waist-to-height ratio

    Time frame · Change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    waist-to-height ratio

  7. Compare BMI (weight in kg/height in m^2), body composition, body weight, and metabolic health between population-based reference group, excellent responders, non-responders and insufficient responders.

    Time frame · Baseline comparison and change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans will be performed in fasting state to measure fat mass and lean mass (kg)

  8. Change in body weight

    Time frame · Change from baseline to end-of-treatment (68 weeks)

    Registry description

    Body weight change and proportion with at least 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%
