There is a growing need to develop pharmacologic interventions to improve metabolic function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Given that PCOS is a frequent condition and weight loss is essential but difficult to achieve, it is important to study if the effect on body weight reported in other studies can be confirmed in a selected population of hyperandrogenic patients, especially with medications currently approved for weight reduction. High dose liraglutide alone results in significant weight reduction in obese women without PCOS. There is limited data on weight loss with high dose liraglutide in non-diabetic females with PCOS treated with this agent . Studies on the effect of anti-obesity medication combined with lifestyle changes on body weight and composition and androgen excess in obese women diagnosed with PCOS are lacking. The investigators aim to elucidate the most efficacious weight reduction regime in obese PCOS women. The investigators further hope to determine which treatment(s) addressing the multifaceted disturbances of this disorder in patients with PCOS and obesity emerges as the preferable therapy.

---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Absolute Body Weight (BW) | Treatment impact on change in body weight after 32 weeks of treatment. | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Primary | Free Androgen Index (FAI) | Drug treatment effect on free androgen levels as calculated as FAI= total testosterone (T) concentrations divided by sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels. A higher score indicates a worse outcome (more androgenic). | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Secondary | Body Mass Index (BMI) | Treatment effect in reducing body mass | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Secondary | Change in Percent Body Weight | Treatment effect on reducing body weight expressed as percent body weight loss from baseline | Change from baseline (time 0) to study end (32 weeks) | |
Secondary | 5% Weight Loss From Baseline | Frequency of patients achieving 5% weight loss from baseline with treatment | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Secondary | 10% Body Weight Loss From Baseline | Frequency of patients with at least 10% reduction in body weight from baseline | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Secondary | Abdominal Adiposity (Waist Circumference [WC] | Treatment effect on loss of WC (abdominal adiposity) with drug treatment | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Secondary | Waist-to-Hip Ratio | Change in central adiposity with treatment as measured by WHR. A reduction in ratio indicates a decrease in truncal fat. | 32 weeks of treatment | |
Secondary | Waist-to Height Ratio [WHtR]) | Treatment effect on loss of central adiposity as determined by WHt ratio. The lower the ratio indicates less abdominal adiposity. | 32 weeks of treatment | |
