Registry summary

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

In 20 - 30% of the patients, the low responders, sufficient weight loss is not achieved after bariatric surgery. Secondary and/or tertiary bariatric procedures can lead to successful weight loss and resolution of comorbid conditions though, morbidity and mortality rates of these procedures are high. Therefore, additional pharmacotherapy has been suggested. Semaglutide is one of the medications that might improve outcome in the post-bariatric population. Semaglutide is a Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogue developed to treat type 2 diabetes. It causes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, promotes satiety and inhibits glucagon secretion. In obese (non-bariatric) patients, semaglutide has shown to improve glycemic control, decrease blood pressure, lower cardiovascular risk, and decrease body weight.

Interventions

  • PlaceboOther
  • Semaglutide 2.4 MG/0.75 ML Subcutaneous Solution [WEGOVY]Drug

Arms2

  • Active comparator

    Semaglutide 2.4mg

    Patients in this group will receive the active comparator semaglutide 2.4mg. This is a medication which is distributed by an intramuscular injection once weekly.

  • Placebo comparator

    Placebo

    Patients in this group will receive the placebo. This is a placebo which is distributed by an intramuscular injection once weekly.
