From the registry

Main objective: To determine whether semaglutide, added to a structured lifestyle intervention, produces a greater percentage reduction in visceral adipose tissue at 12 months than the structured lifestyle intervention alone, among PWH with DEXA-derived VAT area ≥140 cm2, BMI ≥25 and <30 kg/m2, and no diabetes.

Primary outcomes

  • Percentage change in visceral adipose tissue (VAT area, cm2) from baseline to Month 12, measured by whole-body DEXA and assessed by readers blinded to treatment allocation.
