RECRUITING

Impact of Semaglutide on Tobacco Use and Related Health Behaviors

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This pilot randomized trial will assess the impact of 12 weeks of semaglutide administration (vs placebo) on changes in: (i) tobacco use and related factors (nicotine craving, withdrawal, motivation to quit, etc.) and (ii) biological biomarkers of health (e.g., epigenetics, glucose variability via continuous glucose monitoring \[CGM\], etc.) in adult smokers with obesity (n = 40). We will integrate molecular biology procedures (e.g., epigenetics) to maximize internal validity with real-world smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) surveys to maximize external validity

History of significant gastrointestinal disorder, including inflammatory bowel disease or gastrointestinal malignancy (celiac disease is accepted if in remission), diverticular disease, severe gastroparesis, diagnosis of mega-rectum or colon, congenital anorectal malformation, or clinically significant rectocele, intestinal or colonic obstruction, or suspected intestinal obstruction, intestinal resection (with an exception for appendectomy, cholecystectomy and inguinal hernia repair), pancreatitis, active biliary disease
  16. 8. Any other reason or clinical condition that the investigators judge would interfere with study participation and/or be unsafe for a possible subject.
  17. 9. Known or suspected allergy to semaglutide, any of the product components, or any other GLP-1 analogue.
