Randomized Double Blinded Placebo-Controlled w/Semaglutide to Prevent Weight Gain After Liver Transplant
RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindPrevention
Summary
In this study, semaglutide will be compared to placebo (a look-alike inactive substance, a "sugar pill") to determine if its use will prevent weight gain after liver transplantation (LT). In addition, researchers will be testing to determine if semaglutide prevents the development of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) after transplant through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and laboratory results.
