Clinical Trial Summary

This study involves collecting real-world data on body weight, body composition, cardiovascular parameters, and neurovegetative parameters using a connected scale in patients with severe obesity treated with Wegovy®.

Description:

Obesity is a chronic disease associated with numerous co-morbidities. New treatments for obesity, notably GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide 1) analogs, have led to promising advances. Semaglutide 2.4 mg weekly subcutaneous injection, marketed under the brand name Wegovy®, was recently approved in France for weight loss in patients with severe obesity and at least one comorbidity. Several real-world studies have confirmed the effectiveness of semaglutide in reducing body weight and HbA1c. However, few studies have evaluated the kinetics and interindividual variability of changes in body weight and composition as well as cardiovascular health. There appears to be a need for a comprehensive real-world assessment of patients living with severe obesity receiving Wegovy®.

The TELE-SEMA project involves collecting real-world data on body weight, body composition, cardiovascular and neurovegetative parameters via connected scales in patients with severe obesity treated with Wegovy®.

The main objectives will be to assess inter-individual weight variability and explore the determinants that may influence weight loss, body composition and possible eating disorders.
