Efficacy and safety of semaglutide for obesity and hyperphagia in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome

2026-06-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Context</h4> Prader-Willi syndrome is a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by hyperphagia and early-onset obesity from hypothalamic dysfunction with endocrinopathies and learning disability. Management is challenging with strict control of the food environment needed. While newer glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, such as semaglutide, have efficacy in non-PWS obesity,...
