Trial Outcomes & Findings for STEP 1: Research Study Investigating How Well Semaglutide Works in People Suffering From Overweight or Obesity (NCT NCT03548935)

NCT ID: NCT03548935

Last Updated: 2021-11-19

Results Overview

Change in body weight from baseline (week 0) to week 68 is presented. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from both in-trial and on-treatment observation periods. In-trial observation period: the uninterrupted time interval from date of randomization (week 0) to date of last contact with trial site (week 75). On-treatment observation period: includes all time intervals in which participants are considered to be on treatment from the first (week 0) to last trial product administration (week 68), including 2 weeks of follow-up. It excludes any period of temporary treatment interruption. Temporary treatment interruption is defined as more than 2 consecutive missed doses (off-treatment period).

Participant Flow

The trial was conducted at 129 sites in 16 countries as follows (all sites screened and randomized): Argentina (5 sites), Belgium (5 sites), Bulgaria (5 sites), Canada (7 sites), Denmark (1 site), Finland (2 sites), France (7 sites), Germany (13 sites), India (13 sites), Japan (5 sites), Mexico (3 sites), Poland (4 sites), Russian Federation (8 sites), Taiwan(1 site), UK (10 sites), US (40 sites).

The trial included an initial 16-week dose-escalation period and a 52-week dose maintenance period. Participants were randomized in 2:1 ratio either to receive semaglutide 2.4 mg or placebo. The treatment is an adjunct to reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Measure
Semaglutide 2.4 mg
Participants were to receive once-weekly subcutaneous (s.c) injection of 0.25 mg Semaglutide administered using a PDS290 pre-filled pen-injector with a 3 mL cartridge containing Semaglutide 1.0 mg/mL or 3.0 mg/mL and followed a fixed-dose escalation regimen, with dose increases every 4 weeks (to doses of 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 and 2.4 mg/week), aiming at reaching the maintenance dose of 2.4 mg after 16 weeks. Treatment was continued on the maintenance dose of 2.4 mg Semaglutide once weekly for an additional 52 weeks until week 68. The treatment was an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
Placebo
Participants were to receive once-weekly subcutaneous (s.c) injection of 0.25 mg Semaglutide placebo administered using a PDS290 pre-filled pen-injector with a 3 mL cartridge containing Semaglutide placebo 1.0 mg/mL or 3.0 mg/mL and followed a fixed-dose escalation regimen, with dose increases every 4 weeks (to doses of 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 and 2.4 mg/week), aiming at reaching the maintenance dose of 2.4 mg Semaglutide placebo after 16 weeks. Treatment was continued on the maintenance dose of 2.4 mg once weekly for an additional 52 weeks until week 68. The treatment was an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

SF-36 is a 36-item patient-reported survey of patient health that measures the participant's overall health-related quality of life (HRQoL). SF-36v2™ questionnaire measured eight domains of functional health and well-being as well as two component summary scores (physical component summary and mental component summary). In the metric of norm-based scores, 50 and 10 corresponds to the mean and standard deviation, respectively, for the 2009 US general population. Change from week 0 in the domain scores and component summary scores were evaluated at week 68. A positive change score indicates an improvement since baseline. These endpoints were evaluated based on the data from in-trial observation period which is the uninterrupted time interval from start of randomization (week 0) to last trial-related subject-site contact (week 75).

IWQoL-Lite for CT is a modified version of an instrument designed to assess weight-related quality of life. It is used to assess the impact of body weight changes on patients' physical and psychosocial functioning in three composite scores (physical function, physical and psychosocial) and a total score. The scores range between 0-100 where higher scores indicate a better quality of life. A positive change score indicates an improvement since baseline. These endpoints were evaluated based on the data from in-trial observation period which is the uninterrupted time interval from start of randomization (week 0) to last trial-related subject-site contact (week 75).

Timeframe: After week 68

Population: FAS included all randomized participants. 'Overall Number of Participants Analyzed' = participants with available data.

The observed number of participants experiencing a meaningful within participant improvement in SF-36 Physical function after 68 weeks was determined based on two different thresholds. The threshold of 4.3 is the default generic responder threshold defined in SF-36 manual for a general population. The threshold of 3.7 is specific for the population with overweight or obesity included in the study and calculated using patient global rating anchor questionnaires to reflect participants' own perspective based on FDA recommendations. In the reported data, "Yes" infers the number of participants who have achieved an improvement in score greater than or equal to the threshold and "No" infers number of participants who have not achieved an improvement in score greater than or equal to the threshold. The endpoint was evaluated based on the in-trial observation period which is the uninterrupted time interval from randomization (week 0) to last trial related subject-site contact (week 75).

Timeframe: After week 68

Population: FAS included all randomized participants. 'Overall Number of Participants Analyzed' = participants with available data.

The observed number of participants experiencing a meaningful within participant improvement in IWQOL-Lite-CT physical function after 68 weeks was determined based on two different thresholds. The threshold of 20 was a preliminary responder threshold based on earlier studies. The threshold of 14.6 is specific for the population with overweight or obesity included in the study and calculated using patient global rating anchor questionnaires to reflect participants' own perspective based on FDA recommendations. In the reported data, "Yes" infers the number of participants who have achieved an improvement in score greater than or equal to the threshold and "No" infers the number of participants who have not achieved an improvement in score greater than or equal to the threshold. The endpoint was evaluated based on the in-trial observation period. In trial observation period: the uninterrupted time interval from randomization (week 0) to last trial related subject-site contact (week 75).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (week 0) to week 75

Population: SAS included all participants who received at least one dose of trial product.

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of a product, whether or not considered related to the product. All AEs mentioned here are treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) defined as an event for which the onset of the event occurs in the on-treatment period. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from on-treatment observation period. On-treatment observation period: includes all time intervals in which participants are considered to be on treatment from the first (week 0) to last trial product administration (week 68), including 7 weeks of follow-up. It excludes any period of temporary treatment interruption. Temporary treatment interruption is defined as more than 7 consecutive missed doses (off-treatment period).

A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, or is life-threatening, or requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or may have caused a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or requires intervention to prevent permanent impairment or damage. The SAEs occurred from week 0 to week 75 is presented. The endpoint was evaluated based on the data from on-treatment observation period.

Measure
Sema 2.4 mg
n=1306 participants at risk
Participants were to receive once-weekly subcutaneous (s.c) injection of 0.25 mg Semaglutide administered using a PDS290 pre-filled pen-injector with a 3 mL cartridge containing Semaglutide 1.0 mg/mL or 3.0 mg/mL and followed a fixed-dose escalation regimen, with dose increases every 4 weeks (to doses of 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 and 2.4 mg/week), aiming at reaching the maintenance dose of 2.4 mg after 16 weeks. Treatment was continued on the maintenance dose of 2.4 mg Semaglutide once weekly for an additional 52 weeks until week 68. The treatment was an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
