Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Will liraglutide improve diabetes in patients who have not responded as well to surgery for obesity and diabetes?; Secondary Objective: We also want to find out whether giving patient who do not do well after surgery a daily injection of GLP-1 may also affect their: • body weight • systolic and diastolic blood pressure • total number of medications • insulin dose for those patients taking insulin as treatment for T2DM. • obesity-related comorbidities staging score • quality of life • total caloric intake and macronutrient composition • behavioural traits, ad libitum total food intake, sweet taste detection threshold, consummatory taste reward ratings, and wanting and liking for food pictures • number of hypoglycaemic episodes • adverse events ;Primary end point(s): HbA1C reduction from baseline;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 26 WEEKS

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): change from baseline in: • body weight • systolic and diastolic blood pressure • total number of medications • insulin dose for those patients taking insulin as treatment for T2DM. • obesity-related comorbidities staging score • quality of life • total caloric intake and macronutrient composition • behavioural traits, ad libitum total food intake, sweet taste detection threshold, consummatory taste reward ratings, and wanting and liking for food pictures • number of hypoglycaemic episodes • adverse events ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 WEEKS
