Participant Flow

Protocol was approved for a 3-dose intervention that could continue as a 5-dose intervention; no participants received the latter. All outcomes are reported as the 3-dose intervention.

Two participants were not randomized due to screening after consent and prior to randomization.

Measure
Investigational Group
Participants randomized to liraglutide will be started at a low dose (0.6 mg once per day) which will be gradually increased until 1.8 mg/day is reached for the 3-dose intervention and 3 mg/day is reached for the 5-dose intervention. Liraglutide will be administered by injection pen. Liraglutide Pen Injector: Liraglutide will be provided using an injection pen provided by the manufacturer
Control Group
Participants in the control group will have placebo administered by injection pen following the same low dose titration to 3.0 mg once per day. Placebo: Placebo injection pen
