Genetics of the Acute Response to Oral Semaglutide
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Semaglutide Pill: Oral semaglutide treatment
Study summary
The study aims to investigate the genetic basis of the response to short-term (3 months) orally administered semaglutide treatment, in terms of improving metabolic parameters, including the hormonal response to a standardized meal, and changes in body composition and liver steatosis. In the study, parameters such as fasting and 2-hour glucose during OGTT, HbA1c, body fat mass, body weight, total cholesterol, HDL and LDL, triglycerides, HOMA-IR, Matsuda Index and liver steatosis will be assessed. All the patients will undergo genome-wide genotyping. Moreover, in a subset of participants, muscle and fat biopsies will be performed, before and after the treatment, and liver, muscle and pancreas fat content will be assessed using MRI.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Glycemic measures - change in HbA1c (%) — 1 and 3 months
Investigators will measure the change in HbA1c concentration between Visit 2, Visit 3 and Visit 4 as an index of Semaglutide response, and compare them by genotype at selected loci. - Body composition - change in body weight (kg) — 1 and 3 months
Investigators will measure the change in body weight measures between Visit 2, Visit 3 and Visit 4 as an index of Semaglutide response, and compare them by genotype at selected loci.
