A Research Study Looking at How Semaglutide Works in People With Type 2 Diabetes in United Kingdom, as Part of Local Clinical Practice (SURE UK)

The purpose of the study is to collect information on how semaglutide works in real world patients. Participants will get semaglutide prescribed by their study doctor. The study will last for about 6 to 8 months. The participants will be asked to complete some questionnaires about their health and their diabetes treatment. Participants will complete these during their normally scheduled visits with their study doctor.

Treatment and study plan

semaglutide

Drug

Patients will be treated with commercially available semaglutide in a prefilled pen injector (FlexTouch® variant) according to routine local clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician. Other anti-hyperglycaemic treatments will be prescribed at the physician's discretion.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Glycated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Measured in % points

  2. Change in HbA1c

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Measured in mmol/mol

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in body weight

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Measured in kg

  2. Change in body weight

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Measured in %

  3. Change in waist circumference

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Measured in cm

  4. HbA1c level at end of study: <8.0% (64 mmol/mol) (yes/no)

    Time frame: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved HbA1c level at end of study: <8.0%

  5. HbA1c level at end of study: <7.5% (59 mmol/mol) (yes/no)

    Time frame: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved HbA1c level at end of study: <7.5%

  6. HbA1c level at end of study: <7.0% (53 mmol/mol) (yes/no)

    Time frame: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved HbA1c level at end of study: <7.0%

  7. Reduction in HbA1c of 1.0% point or more (yes/no)

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved reduction in HbA1c of 1.0% point or more

  8. Weight reduction of 3.0% or more (yes/no)

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved weight reduction of 3.0% or more

  9. Weight reduction of 5.0% or more (yes/no)

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved weight reduction of 5.0% or more

  10. HbA1c reduction of 1.0% point or more and weight reduction of 3.0% or more (yes/no)

    Time frame: Baseline (up to 12 weeks prior to treatment initiation at week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of participants who achieved/not achieved HbA1c reduction of 1.0% point or more and weight reduction of 3.0% or more

  11. Patient reported severe or documented hypoglycaemia (yes/no)

    Time frame: Between baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28-38)

    Number of patients who reported/not reported severe or documented hypoglycaemia

  12. Change in score for Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire - Status (DTSQs) (absolute treatment satisfaction): Total treatment satisfaction

    Time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    The status version (DTSQs) provides a measure of how satisfied patients are with their current diabetes treatment. It consists of 8 questions, which are to be answered on a Likert scale from 0 to 6 (0 = very dissatisfied to 6 = very satisfied). Six questions are summed to produce a total Treatment Satisfaction score. The remaining two questions are concerning perceived frequency of hyperglycaemia and perceived frequency of hypoglycaemia, respectively.

  13. Change in score for Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire - Change (DTSQc) (relative treatment satisfaction): Total treatment satisfaction

    Time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    The change version (DTSQc) has the same 8 items as the status version, but is reworded to direct the patients to compare the experience of the current treatment with the experience of previous treatment. Each question is scored on a scale of -3 to +3 (-3 = much less satisfied now to +3 = much more satisfied now), with 0 (midpoint), representing no change

  14. Change in score for Short Form (SF)-36 v2: Physical summary component

    Time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    The SF-36®v2 questionnaire has 36 questions grouped into eight domains termed: physical functioning, bodily pain, role-physical, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health, which again can be combined to give two summary component scores (overall mental- and physical health).

  15. Change in score for SF-36 v2: Mental summary component

    Time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)

    The SF-36®v2 questionnaire has 36 questions grouped into eight domains termed: physical functioning, bodily pain, role-physical, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health, which again can be combined to give two summary component scores (overall mental- and physical health).

  16. Patient completed the study under treatment with semaglutide (yes/no)

    Time frame: At end of study (week 28 to 38)

    Number of patients who completed/not completed the study under treatment with semaglutide
