Study Overview

Brief Summary

To investigate the glucose-lowering effect of once-weekly administered semaglutide (0.25-0.5 mg) in individuals with HNF1A- and HNF4A-MODY.

  • Mean difference in body mass index measured at the last visit of each intervention period
  • Mean difference in waist-to-height ratio measured at the last visit of each intervention period
  • Mean difference in body fat (kg) measured at the last visit of each intervention period
  • Rate ratio of hypoglycaemic events measured by CGM during the last two weeks of each intervention stratified by severity (level 1, 2, and 3)
  • Difference in proportion of participants with hypoglycaemic events measured by CGM stratified by severity in the last two weeks of each intervention
  • Mean difference in percentage of time <3.9 mmol/l between the last two weeks of each intervention period
  • Mean difference in percentage of time <3.0 mmol/l between the last two weeks of each intervention period
  • Rate ratio of participant-reported hypoglycaemic events stratified by severity during the maintenance phase (last 6 weeks of each intervention period)
  • Difference in proportion of participants with participant-reported hypoglycaemic events stratified by severity during the maintenance phase (last 6 weeks of each intervention period)
  • Rate ratio of participant-reported hypoglycaemic events stratified by severity during the uptitrationphase (first 10 weeks of each intervention period)
