SCALE KIDS: Research Study to Look at How Well a New Medicine is at Lowering Weight in Children With Obesity

NCT04775082 on ClinicalTrials.gov · last registry update 2026-07-09

A small phase 3 — 78 participants, against a typical 424. The sponsor logged completion for 1 August 2023. Primary outcome, as filed: Relative change in BMI (Body mass index). liraglutide is already approved in the US for obesity, so this is asking a further question rather than establishing the drug works at all.
