ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a medication called Efsubaglutide Alfa, which is given as an injection to help manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes who are struggling to control their condition despite following a healthy diet and exercise plan. The study aims to see how well a dose of 3mg, administered every two weeks, works in lowering a specific blood sugar measurement called HbA1c over 12 weeks. Researchers will also look at how this treatment affects blood sugar fluctuations and other related measures.

To participate in this trial, individuals must be between 18 and 75 years old, have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes for at least eight weeks, and have not used any glucose-lowering medications in the past two months. Interested participants should also have specific blood sugar levels that meet the trial's criteria. If eligible, participants will receive the Efsubaglutide Alfa injections and will be monitored throughout the study to track their health and understand how the medication is working. It's important for anyone considering joining the trial to discuss any health issues or concerns with their doctor to ensure it's a good fit for them.
