NCT ID NCT07055607

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This two-year study will follow 1,250 people with obesity who are starting Wegovy (semaglutide) as part of their regular medical care. Researchers will track changes in weight, waist size, and quality of life to see how the drug performs outside of clinical trials. The goal is to understand the real-world impact of Wegovy when prescribed by doctors in everyday practice.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could show how well Wegovy works for weight loss in everyday medical practice, not just in controlled trials.
