Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety of Semaglutide Once-weekly Versus Placebo in Drug-naïve Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes (NCT NCT02054897)

NCT ID: NCT02054897

Last Updated: 2019-06-12

Results Overview

Change from baseline (week 0) in HbA1c was evaluated after 30 weeks of treatment. Missing data were imputed from a mixed model for repeated measurements with treatment and country as fixed factors and baseline value as covariate, all nested within visit.

Measure
Semaglutide 0.5 mg
Subjects were given 0.25 mg semaglutide once weekly subcutaneous (s.c.; under the skin) injections for 4 weeks followed by 0.5 mg semaglutide once weekly for the remaining 26 weeks of the treatment period.
Semaglutide 1.0 mg
Subjects were given 0.25 mg semaglutide once weekly s.c. injection for 4 weeks, 0.5 mg semaglutide once weekly s.c. injections for the next 4 weeks followed by 1.0 mg semaglutide once weekly s.c. injections for the remaining 22 weeks of the treatment period.
Placebo
Subjects were randomised to either of the 2 placebo arms (i.e., semaglutide placebo 0.5 mg and semaglutide placebo 1.0 mg) and then pooled for data analysis. 1. Placebo 0.5 mg arm: Subjects were given 0.25 mg placebo once weekly s.c. injections for 4 weeks followed by 0.5 mg placebo once weekly s.c. injections for the remaining 26 weeks of the treatment period. 2.
