Participants will get the medicine insulin icodec once a week in the first part of the study (run-in period-26 weeks).

It had 1 arm (groups): Insulin Icodec + Semaglutide (experimental).

The registry classes the interventions as drug.

Who Took Part

148 actual participants took part.

It was open to people of any sex aged from 18 years with no upper age limit.

Healthy volunteers were not accepted; participants needed the condition being studied.

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

Everyone received the same intervention, so there was no separate comparison group inside the trial.

It ran at 39 sites in Poland (16), Czechia (10), Malaysia (5), Serbia (4) and Thailand (4).

Its stated primary purpose is treatment.

What Was Measured

The main thing measured (primary outcome): Change in Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) (time frame: Baseline (Week 26), Week 52).

It also tracked 8 secondary outcomes, for example Change in Mean 7-point Self-measured Plasma Glucose (SMPG) Profiles, Change in Mean Post-prandial Glucose Increment (Over All Meals), Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG), Number of Severe Hypoglycaemic Episodes (Level 3) and Change in Body Weight.
