Dose-finding of Semaglutide Administered Subcutaneously Once Daily Versus Placebo and Liraglutide in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes

NCT02461589 on ClinicalTrials.gov · last registry update 2019-07-31

An unusually large phase 2: 706 participants, more than double the 110 typical for the stage. The sponsor logged completion for 13 October 2016. Primary outcome, as filed: Change in HbA1c (Glycosylated Haemoglobin). semaglutide is approved in the US, but not for diabetes — a registration here is not an approval, and most drugs tested in a new condition never get one for it.
