Semaglutide Depot, is a long-acting formulation of semaglutide, designed for once every four weeks administration, intended to reduce treatment burden, and improve adherence supporting sustained glycemic control over time.
This Phase I/Ila dose escalation study design to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of Semaglutide Depot in adults with T2DM.
