Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the efficacy of Mazdutide in treating obese female adults diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The main question it aims to answer is: Does Mazdutide lower the free androgen index (FAI) in obese female adults with PCOS? Participants will take Mazdutide once every week for 24 weeks and visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests.
Interventions
In the initial 4 weeks, the subjects are given Mazdutide 2mg once weekly. If well tolerated, the dosage is increased to 4mg once weekly for another 4 weeks. If still well tolerated, the dosage is further increased to 6mg once weekly and maintained for the ensuing 16 weeks.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Free Androgen Index (FAI) | 24 weeks | FAI=total testosterone (nmol/L)/ sex hormone binding globulin (nmol/L) X 100 |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| HbA1c | 24 weeks | Measurement of HbA1c |

| Times of regular menses | 24 weeks | Record of vaginal bleeding within 24 weeks after using Mazdutide |
| HOMA insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) | 24 weeks | HOMA-IR=fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L)×fasting insulin (μU/mlINS)/22.5 |
| Bilateral ovary volume | 24 weeks | Total ovary volume is calculated based on length, width and height of bilateral ovaries measured by ultrasound |
