- Empagliflozin 10mg oral tablet / Semaglutide 1mg pen injector — DRUGMeasurement of the effect of the combined treatment with semaglutide 1mg/week and empagliflozin 10 mg/d compared to matching placebo after 48-week treatment.

- Placebo matching empagliflozin and placebo pen injector matching semaglutide — DRUGMeasurement of the effect of the combined treatment with semaglutide 1mg/week and empagliflozin 10 mg/d OR empagliflozin monotherapy 10mg/d compared to matching placebo after 48-week treatment.
Study Details
The aim of this multicentre, prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, 3-arm parallel group, interventional study is to assess for the first time the effects of either a combined therapy with the antihyperglycemic drugs semaglutide and empagliflozin or empagliflozin monotherapy compared to placebo as potential treatments for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in patients with type 2 diabetes.
