797-P: Safety Profile of Once-Weekly Subcutaneous Semaglutide in a Real-World Adult Population with T2D

Abstract

Real-world (RW) drug safety studies complement safety information from randomized clinical trials. This post hoc analysis of pooled data from nine global non-interventional studies (SURE program: 10 countries, ~30 weeks duration) investigated the safety and prescription patterns of once-weekly (OW) semaglutide in 3,505 adults with T2D in routine practice, overall and by patient subgroup and medical specialty stratification. All safety data reported by site physicians were collected and presented using descriptive statistics. Results: Tables 1 and 2. A two-fold increase in level-2 hypoglycemia was associated with insulin use and microvasculopathy. No new safety concerns were observed with OW semaglutide in this large, diverse, RW population with T2D; the safety profile was in line with that of phase 3 trials of semaglutide.
