Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to ievaluate the effect of semaglutide (GLP-1 receptor agonist) in reducing intensity of gastrointestinal (GI) mucositis in patients undergoing high-dosage chemotherapy followed by autologous (auto) haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The secondary objective is to evaluate the effect and safety of semaglutide in reducing gut barrier injury and systemic inflammation in patients undergoing auto-HSCT. Study design: The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2, two-centre investigator-initiated clinical study. Patients referred for treatment with high-dose chemotherapy and auto-HSCT will be randomized in a 1:1 manner to receive either semaglutide or placebo. The study includes a run-in period 3 to 4-week low-dose period with semaglutide subcutaneously (s.c.) 0.25 mg once-weekly (QW) prior to high-dose chemotherapy treatment followed by a period of 4 to 5 weeks with semaglutide 0.5 mg QW. Total duration of treatment with investigational drug will be 8 weeks. Total study duration for the individual patients will be 20-22 weeks, including a 2-4-week screening period and 10 weeks of follow-up. Study population: A planned total number of 40 patients will be randomized.
