Diabetes drug trial offers new hope for stubborn asthma

NCT ID NCT05254314

Summary

This study is testing if semaglutide, a medication already approved for diabetes and weight loss, can help control asthma in adults who are overweight and still have symptoms despite using standard inhalers. One hundred participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the drug or a placebo for 24 weeks to see if it improves their asthma symptoms and reduces airway inflammation. The goal is to see if this drug offers a new way to manage difficult-to-control asthma linked to obesity.
