This trial studies whether semaglutide (a diabetes-type weight-loss injection) helps adults with HIV lose weight. It also checks that it’s safe for people whose HIV is well controlled on regular treatment.
This trial tests if a once-weekly diabetes medication (semaglutide) can help people with HIV reduce heavy drinking and improve heart health. It's for people who drink alcohol and have a higher body weight.
This study tests whether a low dose of semaglutide (a once-weekly injection) can help obese adults without diabetes lose weight. Semaglutide works by reducing appetite and helping your body use food differently.
This trial tests whether semaglutide (a medicine that helps control blood sugar and weight) can improve outcomes for people with type 1 diabetes who have a higher body weight. It may help if you have had type 1 diabetes for at least 3 years and have a BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more with a related health problem.
This study tests a nasal spray containing semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) to see if it helps adults who are overweight or obese lose weight. It may be an option if you have a BMI between 27 and 35 and have not used other weight loss medications recently.
This study tracks how semaglutide (an injectable medication that reduces appetite) helps adults lose weight in everyday life. Researchers want to understand how well it works and how safe it is for people starting the treatment.
