Real-world data for semaglutide
A retrospective, observational study of semaglutide 2.4 mg (Wegovy) has shown that adults who are overweight with an established cardiovascular disease, but no diabetes, were able to reduce their risk of a major cardiovascular event over a period of years. Called SCORE, the trial compared outcomes for semaglutide users with non-users and established benefit for the drug taken as an adjunct to diet and exercise. The study started in 2018, enrolled 17,604 adults, and was conducted in 41 countries at more than 800 sites.
