NCT04487743

Brief Summary

We performed a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 28-week trial. 300 non-diabetic obese subjects or overweight subjects with co-morbidities were randomly assigned. Eligible participants were randomized 2:1 to once-daily subcutaneous injections of either liraglutide or placebo. The primary outcome is to investigate the safety, tolerability from baseline to end of treatment.

Study Arms (2)

Liraglutide

EXPERIMENTAL

Subject receiving liraglutide 3.0 mg subcutaneous (under the skin) injection once daily for 28 weeks.

Drug: Liraglutide

placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Subject receiving placebo 3.0 mg subcutaneous (under the skin) injection once daily for 28 weeks.

Drug: placebo

Interventions

Randomization was performed with the use of a computer-generated system provided by the sponsor. Eligible patients were randomly assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, to receive once-daily subcutaneous injections of liraglutide, starting at a dose of 0.6 mg with weekly 0.6-mg increments to 3.0 mg, or placebo; both groups received counseling on lifestyle modification
