New combo shot CagriSema takes on childhood diabetes
NCT ID NCT07282613
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 10, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a once-weekly injection called CagriSema (a mix of cagrilintide and semaglutide) in 80 children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if it lowers blood sugar and body weight better than a placebo. The trial lasts about 15 months, with everyone getting CagriSema in the second part.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CagriSema (cagrilintide and semaglutide)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new treatment option to help children and teens with type 2 diabetes better control their blood sugar and weight.
- What could go wrong
- This is a Phase 3 trial, but it's small (80 participants) and results may not apply to all children. Side effects from the drugs are possible, and the placebo-controlled phase means some kids won't get the active treatment initially.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
