Summary

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase 2b clinical trial to characterize, examine and compare the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonist (semaglutide) in HIV-infected adult individuals with lipohypertrophy versus healthy controls with obesity but without HIV.

The two populations will be studied in separate but similarly-designed studies running in parallel.

Subjects in both populations will be assigned by chance (1:1) to semaglutide or placebo.
