The results of this study could have important and immediate clinical implications in improving outcomes for this patient group. The current long-term treatment of acute PE is limited to anticoagulation, and there are no other studies investigating different treatment approaches. Vascular inflammation is known to be an important factor driving thrombus evolution and vascular remodelling, and therefore exploring the utility of targeting vascular inflammation is an important step forward in developing new treatment strategies for this common condition.\n\nWe aim to conduct a proof-of-concept open label study with biomarker response to evaluate Semaglutide, a GLP-1 agonist, administered as add-on therapy to the standard of care in adult patients with acute PE treated in hospital. Outcomes will be compared to a control group who will not receive the study drug. The study will recruit adult patients with proximal or large clot burden PE with evidence of right ventricular dysfunction on admission. This group has the highest risk of impaired clot resolution and of development of long-term complications including chronic thromboembolic disease.\n\nThere is a low risk of study drug complications given the extensive availability of human clinical trial data with GLP-1 agonists. There is also extensive real-world experience on the use of Semaglutide in the clinical investigation of glucose control in diabetes. As the first dose of the study drug is administered in hospital, clinical monitoring is optimised and common biochemical perturbations (hypoglycaemia) are easily interrogated and acted on by the clinical team. Patients who have contraindications to the use of GLP-1 agonists and patients currently taking GLP-1 agonists for diabetes mellitus are excluded to reduce the risks associated with the study drug even further.\n\nTrial Objectives and Design\n\nTrial Objectives\n\nThis proof-of-concept interventional study will comprise three separate but inter-linking aims:\n\nI. Determine the effect of Semaglutide on highly glycosylated CD147- driven vascular inflammation in acute PE and GLP-1 receptor expression levels.\n\nII. Evaluate immunological effects of Semaglutide in patients with acute PE (T cell receptor expression/cytokine, chemokine levels).\n\nIII. Determine the impact of Semaglutide on clot resolution and right ventricular recovery following acute PE.\n\n4.2. Primary endpoints Evaluate the change in highly glycosylated CD147 between day 0 and following 6 weeks of Semaglutide.\n\n4.3. Secondary endpoints I. Determine the rate of persistent CTPA or VQ scan perfusion defects with Semaglutide.\n\nII. Change in right ventricular function, FAC andTASPE on echocardiography between day 0 and following 6 weeks of Semaglutide.\n\nIII. Change in plasma Cyclophylin A, sCD147, D-dimer, E selectin, VCAM, MMP levels, NTproBNP, GLP1-R, Troponin, myeloperoxidase activity.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '80 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Acute admission with acute pulmonary embolism', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nAcute pulmonary embolism\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\nConcurrent use of GLP-1 agonist'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06118203', 'briefTitle': 'Semaglutide Use in Acute Pulmonary Embolism', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Imperial College London'}, 'officialTitle': 'Evaluation of Circulating Endothelial Inflammatory Biomarkers in Response to GLP-1 Agonist Semaglutide in Acute Pulmonary Embolism', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '300440'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Open label Semaglutide', 'description': 'Patients presenting with acute intermediate - high risk PE consenting to participation in drug arm of study', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Semaglutide']}, {'label': 'Control', 'description': 'Patients presenting with acute intermediate - high risk PE consenting to participation in control arm of study'}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Semaglutide', 'type': 'DRUG', 'otherNames': ['None applicable'], 'description': 'Semaglutide in addition to standard of care', 'armGroupLabels': ['Open label Semaglutide']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'SW3 6NP', 'city': 'London', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'facility': 'Colm McCabe', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 51.50853, 'lon': -0.12574}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Colm McCabe, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Imperial College London'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Imperial College London', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
