Results Overview

Change in percentage (%) of body weight from baseline (week 0) to end of treatment (week 44) is presented in this outcome measure and it was evaluated based on the data from in-trial observation period. For end of treatment visit, data collected up to week 49 during the in-trial observation period is included in this Outcome Measure. In-trial observation period: The time period where the participants were assessed in the study. The in-trial observation period begins on the date of randomization (week 0) and ends at the end of study visit (week 49).

Participant Flow

The trial was conducted at 13 sites in Republic of Korea and Thailand.

The trial included an initial 16 weeks of dose escalation period and a 28 weeks of maintenance period. 150 eligible participants were randomized in a 2:1 manner to receive either Semaglutide or placebo once weekly as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Measure
Semaglutide
Participants received 2.4 milligram (mg) semaglutide subcutaneous injection once weekly using PDS290 pen injector for 44 weeks. Participants initially received (0.25 mg) semaglutide once weekly and the dose was then escalated once in 4 weeks until the maintenance dose (2.4 mg) was reached: 0.25 mg (week 1 - week 4), 0.5 mg (week 5 - week 8), 1.0 mg (week 9 - week 12), 1.7 mg (week 13 - week 16), 2.4 mg (week 17 - week 44). The treatment was an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
Placebo
Participants received placebo matched to semaglutide once weekly by subcutaneous injection for 44 weeks. Participants initially received 0.25 mg placebo matched to semaglutide once weekly and the dose was then escalated once in 4 weeks until maintenance dose was reached: 0.25 mg (week 1- week 4), 0.5 mg (week 5 - week 8), 1.0 mg (week 9 - week 12), 1.7 mg (week 13 - week 16), 2.4 mg (week 17 - week 44).

Semaglutide
n=101 participants at risk
Participants received 2.4 mg semaglutide subcutaneous injection once weekly using PDS290 pen injector for 44 weeks. Participants initially received (0.25 mg) semaglutide once weekly and the dose was then escalated once in 4 weeks until the maintenance dose (2.4 mg) was reached: 0.25 mg (week 1 - week 4), 0.5 mg (week 5 - week 8), 1.0 mg (week 9 - week 12), 1.7 mg (week 13 - week 16), 2.4 mg (week 17 - week 44). The treatment was an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
Placebo
