Impact of Semaglutide on Tobacco Use and Related Health Behaviors (NCT06986993)

Impact of Semaglutide Administration on Tobacco Use Behavior and Related Mechanisms Among Smokers With Obesity

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase4 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: University of Oklahoma

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This pilot randomized trial will assess the impact of 12 weeks of semaglutide administration (vs placebo) on changes in: (i) tobacco use and related factors (nicotine craving, withdrawal, motivation to quit, etc.) and (ii) biological biomarkers of health (e.g., epigenetics, glucose variability via continuous glucose monitoring \[CGM\], etc.) in adult smokers with obesity (n = 40). We will integrate molecular biology procedures (e.g., epigenetics) to maximize internal validity with real-world smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) surveys to maximize external validity
