- Registration Number
- NCT06207877
- Lead Sponsor
- Novo Nordisk A/S
- Brief Summary
This research study tests if CagriSema influences food intake, appetite and emptying of the stomach in people with excess body weight. Participant will either get CagriSema (active medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine), which has no effect on the body. The treatment participants get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 32 weeks.

Change in Control of Eating questionnaire (COEQ): Craving Control score Baseline to Day 154 The Control of Eating Questionnaire (COEQ) is a self-reported measure assessing various aspects of eating behaviour and related psychological factors. The COEQ has 19 different questions designed to assess the intensity and type of food cravings, as well as subjective sensations of appetite and mood. The total score for each subscale is calculated as the sum of the item scores divided by the number of items in the subscale. Scores ranges are thus: Craving Control (0-50/5 = 0-10); Positive Mood (0-40/4 = 0-10); Craving Sweet (0-40/4 = 0-10); Craving Savoury food (0-40/4 = 0-10); Higher score represents a greater level of Craving Control.

The total score for each subscale is calculated as the sum of the item scores divided by the number of items in the subscale.

VAS appetite questions record the participants' sensations within Hunger, Satiety, Fullness, Prospective food consumption by the participants on a paper printed scale line from 0 to 100 mm. The appetite score will be calculated as \[hunger + (100 - satiety) + (100 - fullness) + prospective food consumption\]/4. Scores of 0 mm are worst and scores of 100 mm are best.

Change in Power of Food questionnaire for Food available score Baseline to Day 155 The Power of Food questionnaire measures three factors that correspond to different levels of food proximity and reflect responsiveness to food-abundant environments: food available (food that is available, but not physically present), food present (food that is present, but not tasted), and food tasted (food that is tasted, but not consumed). Moreover, an aggregate score is calculated as the mean of the three subdomains. The questionnaire consists of 15 questions, and the participants will be asked to rate their agreement or disagreement with each statement on a 5-point scale (ranging from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree").

Change in mean score from the Monetary Choice Questionnaire Baseline to Day 157 The 27-item version of the Monetary Choice Questionnaire63 is used to assess participants' individual preference for immediate versus delayed monetary rewards. The questions comprise hypothetical choices between smaller immediate rewards or larger delayed rewards. The specific amounts and delays of the rewards vary across questions. For each question, the participant is asked to choose which option they would prefer. The responses are used to calculate a measure of participants' willingness to delay gratification and their discount rate (k) for delayed rewards.
