NCT04708769
The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the first rigorously optimized, remotely delivered treatment for obesity against the current gold standard treatment in a head-to-head randomized controlled trial. The investigators will be comparing the previously developed and optimized behavioral weight loss intervention (APP) to the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), to evaluate program weight-loss success and cost-effectiveness.
NCT05114798
Approximately 42% of American adults are obese, and this condition is strongly related to the development of colorectal cancer. Innovative lifestyle strategies to treat obesity and reduce colorectal cancer risk are critically needed. This research will demonstrate that time-restricted eating, a type of intermittent fasting, is an effective therapy to help obese individuals reduce and control their body weight and prevent the development of colorectal cancer.
NCT05687604
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve cancer patient's health, survival, and quality of life by dispelling risk behaviors for Northwestern Memorial Health Care (NMHC) patients who are cancer survivors. The main question\[s\] STELLAR aims to answer are: * How best to combine three behavior interventions (physical activity promotion, smoking cessation, obesity treatment) into one treatment. * Evaluate the reach of the program. We will look at the number, proportion, and representativeness of participants in terms of disease characteristics, socioeconomic status, telehealth readiness, and race/ethnicity. * Evaluate the effects of the STELLAR program relative to enhanced usual care (information provision) on cancer risk behaviors, patient care access, care quality, and communication. Participants will be provided goals related to their physical activity, smoking, and/or weight loss and asked to track their health behaviors via an app, excel file, or on paper. At baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months into the study, participants will provide survey responses and physical measurements like height and weight. Additionally, those in the Facilitated group will complete 12 telehealth sessions with study staff to discuss progress towards their study goals. Researchers will compare the Facilitated group to the Self Guided group to see if the Facilitated intervention group is able to reach more participants that enhances care only.
NCT04726293
The primary objective of this project is to provide new knowledge through a comprehensive set of analyses that investigate the complex interplay between regular mango intake, gut microbial structure/ function, mechanisms of inflammation and insulin sensitivity in over weight (OW)/obese (OB) human subjects with chronic low-grade inflammation.
NCT04267705
Objective 1: Characterize indices of systemic inflammation and gut microbiota composition and function after chronic (12 weeks) intake of pulses compared to control diet in human OW/OB-IR participants. Objective 2: Characterize dietary- and microbial-derived metabolite pools after regular intake of pulses (12 weeks) in human participants with OW/OB-IR compared to control diet. Objective 3: Characterize cognitive functioning after chronic (12 weeks) intake of pulses compared to control diet in human OW/OB-IR participants.
NCT02121132
The main objective of this study is to establish a national pediatric obesity registry known as POWER (Pediatric Obesity Weight Evaluation Registry). This registry will contain clinical data from individual comprehensive pediatric weight management programs around the United States for overweight and obese youth.
NCT05629858
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility among young women. This syndrome is a reproductive and endocrinological disorder that affects up to 18% of reproductive-aged women. To date, the only strategy shown to reverse PCOS is sustained weight loss of 5-10%. At present, daily calorie restriction (CR) is the main diet prescribed to patients with PCOS for weight loss. However, some women find it difficult to adhere to CR because calorie intake must be vigilantly monitored every day. Considering these problems with CR, another approach that limits timing of food intake, instead of number of calories consumed, has been developed. This diet is called "time restricted eating" (TRE) and involves confining the period of food intake to 6-8 h per day. TRE allows individuals to self-select foods and eat ad libitum during a large part of the day, which can increase compliance to these protocols. Recent findings show that TRE significantly reduces body weight and insulin resistance in adults with obesity. However, no randomized controlled trials have studied the role of TRE in treating PCOS. OBJECTIVE: We conducted a 6-month, randomized, controlled trial comparing the effects of 6-h TRE (eating all food between 1:00 pm to 7:00 pm, without calorie counting), versus CR (25% energy restriction daily), and a control group (eating over a period of 10 or more hours per day), on body weight and PCOS symptoms in a racially-ethnically diverse group of females with PCOS. METHODS: A 6-month randomized, controlled, parallel-arm trial will be implemented. Females with overweight/obesity and PCOS will be randomized to 1 of 3 groups: (1) 6-h TRE (eating all food between 1:00 pm to 7:00 pm, without calorie counting); (2) CR (25% energy restriction daily); or (3) control group (eating over a period of 10 or more hours per day).
NCT06494449
The objective of this trial is to assess the effects of acute intake of mixed meals containing higher vs. lower energy from protein on diet induced thermogenesis (DIT) in adults with overweight or obesity.
NCT04847557
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Tirzepatide (LY3298176) in participants with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and obesity.
NCT06703021
Phase 2 clinical study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of various aleniglipron (GSBR-1290) dose regimens compared with placebo in participants living with obesity or overweight with ≥ 1 weight-related comorbidity, in addition to diet and exercise, over a 44-week period.
NCT06867718
This is a phase 2, 36-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel arm study that will evaluate the safety, tolerability, weight loss efficacy, pharmacodynamic effects, and pharmacokinetics of RGT001-075 in adults who are obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m²) or who are overweight (BMI ≥27 kg/m²) with at least one weight-related comorbidity. RGT001-075 or matching placebo will be administered once daily.
NCT04770909
This study involves an evaluation of whether providing small incentives weekly for dietary self-monitoring and/or weight loss improves short- and long-term weight loss. Participants can expect to be on study for 18 months.
