NCT07107334
Brief Summary:
This study will explore the use of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) used concurrently with levonorgestrel intrauterine device in patients with poor surgical candidacy for a hysterectomy or patients who are pursuing fertility sparing. GLP-1RA are a class of medications that mimic the natural hormone glucagon-like peptide-1. These medications trigger the pancreas to release insulin which can help lower blood sugar levels and delay gastric emptying. The recent FDA approval of GLP-1RAs has changed the landscape for pharmacotherapy for weight loss. These hormone-based obesity medications are novel and revolutionary in obesity medicine. Liraglutine, semaglutide, and tirzepatide have become exceedingly popular for their effects on weight loss and obesity-related comorbidities. More recently, GLP-1RAs have exhibited risk reduction of various obesity associated cancers, including endometrial cancer but their exact role in prevention and treatment has yet to be measured.
