Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to conduct a three-arm 52-week, randomized controlled trial with double blind treatment to evaluate the effects of a drug called tirzepatide in combination with an innovative, culturally-appropriate, intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) delivered by community health workers (CHWs) in Latino adults with obesity. Participants will be randomized to 1) standard care (SC, n=25); 2) culturally-tailored dietary and behavioral intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI, n=25) provided by CHWs plus placebo; or 3) ILI plus tirzepatide (ILI-TRZ) for 52 weeks to evaluate the intervention's effect on: i) weight loss; ii) clinical efficacy (change in body fat mass, liver fat, intra-abdominal fat mass and intrahepatic triglyceride content, oral glucose tolerance, glycemic control, insulin sensitivity and b-cell function, plasma lipids, blood pressure, sleep duration, quality and behaviors, physical performance scores); iii) adherence and fidelity to the intervention (adherence to the intervention and barriers to long term adherence, quality-of-life, fidelity of the implementation by CHWs, CHW's and study participants' acceptability and satisfaction with the intervention and eating behaviors. Placebo or tirzepatide will be injected subcutaneously in the abdomen or thigh once a week for 12 months.
