Mazdutide as Adjuvant Therapy Following Sleeve Gastrectomy in Severe Obesity:A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Superiority Trial

Обзор

The SMART study is a 96-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled superiority clinical trial. A total of 256 severe obesity patients are randomized 1:1 to either receive the bariatric surgery plus GCG/GLP-1 dual receptor agonist group (receiving sleeve gastrectomy followed by subcutaneous injections of mazdutide weekly, with stepwise dose escalation to a maintenance dose per protocol) or the bariatric surgery plus placebo group (receiving matched procedure plus placebo injections). The primary objective is to evaluate the potential enhancing weight reduction effects of the combination therapy with bariatric surgery and mazdutide measured by the percentage change of excess weight loss.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Sleeve gastrectomy plus early mazdutide initiation
  After sleeve gastrectomy is preformed, mazdutide injection (pre-filled auto-injector pen) is administered subcutaneously at the same time each week at 5th month post procedure. The treatment begins with a starting dose of 2.0 mg, followed by a titration schedule increasing by 2.0 mg every 4 weeks (2.0 mg → 4.0 mg). If well-tolerated, participants reached the target maintenance dose of 6.0 mg (4.0 mg → 6.0 mg)weekly for maintenance. The protocol permits adaptive dose downgrade to 4.0 mg weekly wh
