The wire
- 01NCT06050577, a phase 2 placebo-controlled trial sponsored by Odense University Hospital, is active and no longer recruiting; it began June 2024 and runs 52 weeks of treatment.
- 02Bone loss is an open question for GLP-1 users, and the protocol measures bone markers, scans, bone tissue and marrow samples, plus direct bone strength by microindentation.
- 03The stated hypothesis is a positive effect on bone balance and strength; no results are posted, and the trial is in patients with type 2 diabetes at increased fracture risk.
