Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Jan 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the weight loss and metabolic benefit in patients remaining obesity at 6 months after metabolic surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: \[primary hypothesis 1\] Whether liraglutide benefits weight loss when it is initiated early after metabolic surgery. \[primary hypothesis 2\] Whether weight loss and metabolic benefits are greater when linaglutide is initiated in patients who are obese at 6 months after metabolic surgery
