What This Study Did, in Plain Language

What Was Tested

The trial (phase 1) is built around Semaglutide.

This trial is conducted in Europe.

It had two arms (groups): Semaglutide (experimental) and Semaglutide + Omeprazole (experimental).

The registry classes the interventions as drug.

Who Took Part

The registry lists 54 actual participants took part.

It was open to people of any sex aged from 18 years up to 75 years.

Healthy volunteers could join, not only people with the condition.

Examples of who could join: Male or female age 18-75 years (both inclusive) at time of signing informed consent. Body mass index of 18.5-29.9 kg/m\^2 (both inclusive). A good general health based on medical history, physical examination, and results of vital signs, electrocardiogram and laboratory safety tests performed during the screening visit, as judged by the investigator.

The full record lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria; among the exclusions: history of crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or other inflammatory bowel disease.

How the Study Was Run

It was run as a randomized, parallel-group and open-label study.

Because people in this Semaglutide study were split into groups at random, differences between the groups are less likely to reflect who happened to join each one.

The Semaglutide group and the comparison group ran side by side rather than switching.

Nothing was hidden in this open-label Semaglutide study: the participants and staff both knew the treatment.

It started in 2014-09-24 with completion listed for 2015-04-01.

It ran at 1 site in Germany.

Its stated primary purpose is treatment.

What Was Measured

The main thing measured (primary outcome): Area under the semaglutide plasma concentration time curve.

It also tracked 2 secondary outcomes, for example Area under the SNAC plasma concentration time curve and Number of hypoglycaemic episodes.

What This Means in Plain Language

Put simply, this is a phase 1, randomized trial of Semaglutide in 54 people.

The trial is marked completed; no results are posted to the registry yet, so nothing here describes outcomes.

Our Notes on the Compound

Semaglutide: The active ingredient in several prescription GLP-1 receptor agonist medicines (Ozempic, Wegovy, oral tablets).
