Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of semaglutide in patients with Idiopathic intracranial hypertension.


Clinical Trial Description

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a condition characterized by elevated pressure within the skull for reasons that are not yet understood. This condition does not involve abnormalities in the cerebrospinal fluid or any structural brain damage. Individuals with this condition commonly experience persistent headaches, and some may face the potential of irreversible vision loss, significantly impacting their psychological well-being and overall quality of life. At present, the efficacy of medications like acetazolamide and topiramate in managing IIH is constrained by practical clinical constraints. Recent studies have indicated that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists show promise as a potential treatment option for IIH. Semaglutide, as a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 formulation, has a half-life of up to 160 hours and only needs to be injected once a week. It is easy to administer and has good safety and tolerability. Hence, the objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of semaglutide in managing idiopathic intracranial hypertension, laying the groundwork for subsequent extensive, multicenter research endeavors. ;
