NCT07140289
This study aims to assess the effect of using Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1) receptor agonists on gastric emptying on surgical patients and whether specific guidelines need to be established for these patients. GLP-1 receptor agonists are mainly used for the treatment and mitigation of obesity and metabolic syndromes. One of their mechanisms of action is by delaying gastric emptying, hence increasing satiety. However, patients need to abstain from eating for a set amount of time before surgery to reduce the risk of aspiration. Hence patients who use GLP-1 receptor agonists may need more time to abstain eating (nil-per-os). In this study we aim to assess how much time is sufficient before surgery in these specific population of patients.
NCT06596135
This is an open-label extension study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of continued setmelanotide treatment in male and female patients ≥2 years of age who have completed or transitioned from a previous study with setmelanotide for rare genetic, syndromic, or acquired diseases of obesity upstream of the MC4R pathway.
