简要总结
To investigate the efficacy of semaglutide in obese infertile women of childbearing age with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), we design this prospective, randomized, open and controlled study. 75 obese infertile PCOS patients will be recruited and randomized into three groups: metformin, semaglutide and metformin+semaglutide, on the basis of calorie-restricted diet and physical exercise. All subjects will be treated for 12 weeks, and then stop taking the drug for at least 8 weeks to initiate ovulation induction or ovulation induction combined with artificial insemination. All subjects will be followed up for 24 weeks for pregnancy outcome. The primary endpoint of the study is the percentage of weight loss at 12 weeks of treatment. The secondary endpoints include HOMA-IR and androgen levels at 12 weeks of treatment, ovulation rate at 24 weeks of follow-up, clinical pregnancy rate and cumulative pregnancy rate, and depression, anxiety, diet and quality of life scores at 12 weeks of treatment.

To investigate the efficacy of semaglutide in obese infertile women of childbearing age with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), we design this prospective, randomized, open and controlled study. 75 obese infertile PCOS patients will be recruited and randomized into three groups: metformin, semaglutide and metformin+semaglutide, on the basis of calorie-restricted diet and physical exercise. Metformin and semaglutide will be administered in a dose increasing mode, and then maintain until the end of 12 weeks, and metabolic related indexes will be evaluated. After 12 weeks of treatment, all subjects will stop taking the drug for at least 8 weeks to initiate ovulation induction or ovulation induction combined with artificial insemination. All subjects will be followed up for 24 weeks to evaluate the fertility related indicators. The primary endpoint of the study is the percentage of weight loss at 12 weeks of treatment. The secondary endpoints include HOMA-IR and androgen levels at 12 weeks of treatment, ovulation rate at 24 weeks of follow-up, clinical pregnancy rate and cumulative pregnancy rate, and depression, anxiety, diet and quality of life scores at 12 weeks of treatment.

研究组 & 干预措施
metformin
About 25 subjects will be allocated to this group to receive metformin only, as the active comparator of semaglutide groups. Metformin used in this trial is Glucophage ( 500mg per tablet）produced by Bristol-Myers Squibb.The initial dose of metformin will be 500mg twice daily, which will be increased to 1000mg twice daily after two weeks, and then maintained until the end of treatment in total 12 weeks.
干预措施: Metformin Hydrochloride 500 MG (Drug)

semaglutide
About 25 subjects will be allocated to this group to receive semaglutide only, as one of the experimental groups. Semaglutide used in this trial is WEGOVY (semaglutide) injection produced by Novo Nordisk. Administer WEGOVY once weekly, on the same day each week, at any time of day, with or without meals. Inject subcutaneously in the abdomen, thigh or upper arm. Initiate at 0.25 mg once weekly for 4 weeks. In 4 week intervals, increase the dose until a dose of 1.0 mg is reached, and then maintained 1.0 mg until the end of treatment in total 12 weeks..
干预措施: Semaglutide, 1.34 mg/mL (Drug)

semaglutide and metformin
About 25 subjects will be allocated to this group to receive both semaglutide and metformin, as another of the experimental groups. Metformin used in this trial is Glucophage ( 500mg per tablet）produced by Bristol-Myers Squibb.The initial dose of metformin will be 500mg twice daily, which will be increased to 1000mg twice daily after two weeks, and then maintained until the end of treatment in total 12 weeks.
