Study Summary

This is a randomized placebo-controlled trial of semaglutide, an FDA-approved therapy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity, in adults with symptomatic asthma despite the use of inhaled steroids and with excess body weight. This study will test the central hypothesis that semaglutide will improve asthma control and reduce airway inflammation due to direct effects on the respiratory tract in adult asthma associated with obesity.

Primary Outcome

The primary clinical outcome is the difference between the treatment and placebo groups in change from baseline in asthma control questionnaire (ACQ)-7 score to week 12. The ACQ-7 scale ranges from 0-6 with lower scores indicating better asthma control.
