Elecoglipron vs. Semaglutide for Type 2 Diabetes

This study is looking for adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) whose blood sugar isn't well-controlled with their current treatment or lifestyle changes. You might be able to join if you've had T2DM for at least 90 days and your HbA1c (a measure of average blood sugar over 2-3 months) is between 7% and 10.5%. The study will compare a new oral medication called Elecoglipron to an existing oral medication, Semaglutide, to see how well they lower blood sugar and if they are safe. Researchers will measure your HbA1c from the start of the study up to 52 weeks to see if the medications are working. The study aims to enroll about 1200 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.
