About this study

Official title: A Multi-centre, Prospective, Noninterventional Study Investigating the Effectiveness of Once-weekly Subcutaneous Semaglutide in a Real World Adult Population With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of the study is to collect information on how semaglutide works in real world patients. Participants will get semaglutide prescribed by their study doctor. The study will last for about 6 to 8 months. The participants will be asked to complete some questionnaires about their health and their diabetes treatment. Participants will complete these during their normally scheduled visits with their study doctor.

Being tested
semaglutide
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • semaglutideDrug

    Patients will be treated with commercially available semaglutide in a prefilled pen injector (FlexTouch® variant) according to routine local clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician. Other anti-hyperglycaemic treatments will be prescribed at the physician's discretion.

Study groups in NCT04261933
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Semaglutide s.c. once-weeklyParticipants will receive semaglutide at the treating physician's discretion as part of the usual clinical practice. The prescription and use of semaglutide is completely independent of this study. Total study duration for the individual patient will be approximately 30 weeks.
Receives: Drug: semaglutide

  2. Change in body weight (%)

    Percent

    Measured: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation (week 0) to end of study (week 28 to 38)

  3. Change in waist circumference

    cm

    Measured: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation (week 0) to end of study (week 28 to 38)

  4. HbA1c level below 8.0% (64 mmol/mol) (yes/no)

    Number of participants

    Measured: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

  5. HbA1c level below 7.5% (59 mmol/mol) (yes/no)

    Number of participants

    Measured: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

  6. HbA1c level below 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) (yes/no)

    Number of participants

    Measured: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

  7. Reduction in HbA1c of 1.0% point or more (yes/no)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved reduction in HbA1c of 1.0% point or more

    Measured: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  8. Weight reduction of 3.0% or more (yes/no)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved weight reduction of 3.0% or more

    Measured: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  9. Weight reduction of 5.0% or more (yes/no)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved weight reduction of 5.0% or more

    Measured: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  10. HbA1c reduction of 1.0% point or more and weight reduction of 3.0% or more (yes/no)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved HbA1c reduction of 1.0% point or more and weight reduction of 3.0% or more

    Measured: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  11. Patient reported severe or documented hypoglycaemia (yes/no)

    Count

    Measured: Between baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28-38)

  12. Change in score for Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire - Status (DTSQs) (absolute treatment satisfaction): Total treatment satisfaction

    The status version (DTSQs) provides a measure of how satisfied patients are with their current diabetes treatment. It consists of 8 questions, which are to be answered on a Likert scale from 0 to 6 (0 = very dissatisfied to 6 = very satisfied). Six questions are summed to produce a total Treatment Satisfaction score. The remaining two questions are concerning perceived frequency of hyperglycaemia and perceived frequency of hypoglycaemia, respectively

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  13. Change in score for Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire - Change (DTSQc) (relative treatment satisfaction): Total treatment satisfaction

    The change version (DTSQc) has the same 8 items as the status version, but is reworded to direct the patients to compare the experience of the current treatment with the experience of previous treatment. Each question is scored on a scale of -3 to +3 (-3 = much less satisfied now to +3 = much more satisfied now), with 0 (midpoint), representing no change

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  14. Change in score for Short Form (SF)-36 v2: Physical summary component

    The SF-36®v2 questionnaire has 36 questions grouped into eight domains termed: physical functioning, bodily pain, role-physical, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health, which again can be combined to give two summary component scores (overall mental- and physical health).

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  15. Change in score for SF-36 v2: Mental summary component

    The SF-36®v2 questionnaire has 36 questions grouped into eight domains termed: physical functioning, bodily pain, role-physical, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health, which again can be combined to give two summary component scores (overall mental- and physical health).

    Measured: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

  16. Patient completed the study under treatment with semaglutide (yes/no)

    Count

    Measured: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 95 sites in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 95 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Glycated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation (week 0) to end of study (week 28 to 38)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04261933, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Mar 2023.
