NCT06528067
The aim of this study is to test how acceptable and feasible a new eating intervention is in people with overweight and binge eating. This intervention combines mindful eating with motivational interviewing to target binge eating. The main questions this clinical trial aims to answer are: How well do participants accept the new intervention (acceptability)? Is the intervention practical and easy to implement (feasibility)? In this trial researchers will compare the new eating intervention (motivational interviewing for mindful eating + digital meditation) to an active control (digital meditation) to see if the intervention can help reduce binge eating. Participants will: 1. Take online questionnaires at four different time points 2. Provide body composition and samples to measure glucose levels 3. Meditate for at least 10 minutes a day 4. If assigned to the Mindful Motivation group, 8 weeks of brief counseling
NCT07435974
The goal of this clinical study is to learn whether a brief online psychological program called COR can be delivered in a feasible and acceptable way for adults who experience recurrent binge eating. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Is the COR program acceptable to participants, in terms of satisfaction, adherence, and dropout rates? * Is the COR program feasible to deliver online, including recruitment, retention, and completion of sessions and questionnaires? * Do participants show preliminary changes over time in binge eating-related distress and emotional well-being? Participants in this study are adults who experience recurrent episodes of binge eating. They will take part in an individual online intervention that includes eight weekly sessions, a brief pre-session, and a follow-up session one month after the end of treatment. During the study, participants will: * Attend weekly online sessions focused on understanding binge eating, emotions, and the relationship with food and the body * Practice simple exercises to help manage emotional distress and food-related urges * Complete short questionnaires before, during, and after the intervention to describe their experiences The information from this study will help researchers understand whether this type of intervention can be used in future, larger studies and in real-world clinical settings.
NCT06349460
The purpose of this study is to conduct a micro-randomized trial to learn which evidence-based targets within a mobile intervention for binge eating and weight-related behaviors are most impactful for which people and in what sequence.
NCT05509257
Using a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study, this study will evaluate functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) as a pharmacodynamic biomarker of opioid antagonism in adolescents with eating disorders. The hypothesis is that fMRI will be able to detect acute reward pathway modulation by naltrexone (an opioid antagonist) in pre-defined regions of interest (anterior cingulate cortex, nucleus accumbens, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex).
NCT07212673
The investigators will evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of a 16-session digital mindfulness-based and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention for binge eating disorder (BED) + coached self-monitoring vs. a coached self-monitoring intervention. This study is a pilot randomized controlled trial.
NCT07217847
The goal of this controlled trial is to learn whether a brief single-session intervention (SSI) can reduce binge eating symptoms by targeting overvaluation of weight/shape in women with recurrent binge eating. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does assessment alone reduce binge eating severity and overvaluation of weight/shape compared to a control group undergoing minimal assessment? * Does adding a values-based reflection and goal-setting component (the full SHAPE intervention) add benefits beyond the assessment alone? Researchers will compare three groups: 1. assessment-only, 2. full SHAPE intervention, and 3. minimal assessment control to see if both active conditions outperform the control, and whether the full intervention adds any benefits beyond the assessment itself Participants will: * Complete a semi-structured eating disorder assessment (Eating Disorder Examination) * Depending on assignment, also complete a values-based reflection and goal-setting exercise with psychoeducation * Complete follow-up assessments evaluating binge eating severity, overvaluation of weight/shape, clinical impairment, binge frequency, and related outcomes.
NCT02940613
This study has two aims: 1) to test the validity of an eating disorder symptom checklist against an established clinical interview; and 2) to examine whether providing eating disorder patients with visual graphs of their symptom frequency in the early sessions of active treatment will lead to higher numbers of patients achieving a "rapid response" (65% reduction in symptoms in the first 4 weeks of treatment). Groups where patients receive visual graphs of symptom frequency will be compared with groups where patients do not receive visual graphs of symptom frequency on rates of rapid response to cognitive behavior treatment for eating disorders.
NCT06847399
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide in adults with obesity and binge-eating disorder, comparing tirzepatide against placebo and lisdexamfetamine dimesylate. All participants will receive guided self-help cognitive behavioral therapy.
NCT07042672
This study is a clinical, longitudinal, non-randomized, prospective observational study that seeks to compare the treatment effects and safety of using GLP-1 analogues versus not using appetite suppressants during a lifestyle treatment program that includes individual consultations every fourth month and 10 weeks of CBT-E group therapy in patients with both obesity and BED. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact on BED symptomatology, while the secondary objectives include examining the potential adoption of alternative harmful coping mechanisms. Additionally, the study will assess psychological well-being and weight changes and their consequent influence on obesity-associated comorbid conditions. Adult patients with coexisting obesity and BED presenting at the Obesity clinic at Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway, will be included Patients will be divided into two groups: Group-GLP1 (n = 40), who will use GLP-1 analogues, and Group-NoMED (n = 40), who will not use appetite suppressants. Both groups will otherwise follow the routine standardized patient care pathway with follow-up controls every four months and participation in CBT group therapy sessions. Changes in symptoms of BED, alternative harmful coping strategies and mental health will be recorded at baseline and 12 months using patient-reported questionnaires, as well as anthropometric and biochemical data.
NCT05693896
More than 30% of Black women with obesity binge eat. Binge eating may increase the risk for the development of metabolic syndrome and binge-eating-disorder (BED), which is associated with severe obesity. Though several effective treatments for binge eating exist, Black women have not fared well. Not only has their inclusion in treatment trials been limited, but when participating, they are more likely to drop out, and/or lose less weight, compared to their White counterparts. Furthermore, treatment for binge eating is often not available in primary care and community-based settings places where Black women are more likely to receive treatment for their eating and weight-related concerns. Currently, there is scant intervention research to treat binge eating in Black women. With the highest rates of obesity (57%) nationally, Black women are in need of culturally-relevant treatments for binge eating and weight gain prevention. Given the established relationship between frequent binge eating and subsequent weight gain, addressing binge eating among Black women with obesity is imperative.
NCT06848244
Black Americans are disproportionately affected by diabetes, with nearly double the rates of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), compared to non-Hispanic White adults. Though numerous factors affect these disparities, one modifiable risk factor may be that of binge eating (BE), which increases risk for binge-eating disorder (BED), which is associated with severe obesity, and often precedes a T2DM diagnosis, beginning in childhood or adolescence. Nearly 30% of Black women with obesity report binge eating episodes. Furthermore, given that binge and overeating may disparately increase the odds of obesity in Black adults (15-fold increase vs. 6-fold increase in White adults), reducing this behavior will be critical to prevent continued disparities in T2DM diagnosis. Given that Black women have the highest rates of obesity in the nation (57%), report disparate rates of weight gain between young adulthood and mid adulthood, and report disparate rates of emotional eating in adolescence, which is a risk factor for BE, one pathway to reducing disparities in T2DM risk in Black women may be to reduce binge eating and prevent weight gain in emerging adulthood (ages 18-25).
NCT07024550
The goal of this clinical trial is to thoroughly explore and ascertain the mechanism of action of the therapy with the EXOMIND (BTL-699-2) device in the treatment of food cravings (serving as an important precipitant to binge eating episodes), among binge eaters and to confirm its efficacy and safety, in adult binge-eating patients with food cravings. The main question it aims to answer is: To ascertain the mechanism of action of the treatment with the EXOMIND (BTL-699-2) device equipped with a BTL-699-AP-M-2 applicator in reducing food cravings, for the active group only. Participants will complete six treatments and one follow-up visit.
NCT06012045
The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Enhanced Cue Exposure Therapy (E-CET) in reducing negative emotional eating (NEE), compared to an active control intervention, behavioral lifestyle intervention (BLI), in a parallel-group, participant-blinded, randomized controlled trial. The secondary aim is to evaluate whether changes in conditioned stimulus-unconditioned stimulus (CS-US) expectancies mediate the changes in NEE.
NCT05560529
Binge eating disorder (BED) is one of the recently acknowledged eating disorders, with many theories underlying its pathology whether biological or psychological. From the biological perspective, changes in plasma ghrelin were hypothesized to have a major role in developing and maintaining the disorder, while from the psychopathological perspectives, abnormalities in emotion regulation were found in many patients. Since Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is known to target emotion dysregulation, the main aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of DBT versus treatment as usual (TAU) in BED patients, and whether plasma ghrelin level will be affected after treatment in both arms.
NCT05143866
The purpose of the present pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and likely effectiveness of an evidence-based guided self-help intervention for binge eating and related disordered over-eating in those unable to access clinician provided treatments. If feasible, acceptable and likely to be effective, such interventions could be made available more widely as an early intervention to those in need. Such interventions have the potential to improve quality of life by removing or ameliorating symptoms that impair psychological and social functioning. Eligible participants will receive the guided self-help intervention - an evidence-based self help program in the form of a self-help book plus telephone support and encouragement to follow the program provided by specially trained help-line volunteers. Support completing the self-help program will be provided over a period of 4 months and participants will be followed up for a year after completion of the intervention. Participants will be asked to complete brief online assessments before starting the program, at the end of 4 months when they complete the program and at 6 month and 12 month follow up.
NCT05035927
To better understand the potential benefits of psychedelics in overeating disorders, Tryp Therapeutics will conduct a safety and feasibility clinical trial using TRP 8802 among individuals with Binge Eating Disorder. This is a single-center phase 2a open-label study to assess the safety and feasibility of a single dose of TRP 8802 in subjects with BED. Subjects will undergo screening, preparation therapy sessions, dosing, integration therapy sessions, and follow-up for 12 weeks following the dose of TRP 8802. The total participation in the study will be up to approximately 5 months.
NCT06683456
Binge eating, whether formally diagnosed or occurring at subthreshold levels, is associated with adverse health consequences and decreased quality of life. Access to accessible, cost-effective interventions that effectively address binge eating episodes is critical for individuals with this condition, and smartphone applications have demonstrated promise in treating binge eating and related disorders. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of eMOTE, a novel smartphone application for binge eating based on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills. For this purpose, a randomized controlled trial will be conducted in which women who self-report binge eating episodes will be randomly assigned to the app intervention group or a waiting list group.
NCT06454123
The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility of a digital therapeutic to address comorbid binge eating and obesity in adults.
NCT03712462
This study aims to develop and evaluate the efficacy of a behavioral weight loss treatment approach for individuals with binge eating disorder to both reduce their binge eating behaviors and lose weight.
NCT04661410
In the current study, the investigators will revise our existing 10-session group RRT treatment manual to specifically address the challenges in building social support and enhancing both momentary and sustained reward during the COVID-19 pandemic (Preliminary Aim 1). In months 2-18, the investigators will conduct a small pilot RCT that will randomize individuals to receive either 10-sessions of RRT (n=30) or supportive therapy (n=30), both delivered as group-treatments via videoconferencing software. The specific aims of the current study are to confirm the feasibility and acceptability of RRT for EDs (Primary Aim 1), evaluate the ability of RRT to engage critical targets including reward to day-to-day life activities, reward to palatable foods, social isolation, and loneliness (Primary Aim 2), and provide preliminary estimates of efficacy in reducing ED symptoms at both post-treatment and a 3-month follow-up (Primary Aim 3). the investigators will also evaluate the impact of RRT on secondary outcome variables including depression, substance use, and quality of life (Secondary Aim 1).
