Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind study in participants with overweight or obesity in which the effect of acarbose and the impact of dose on efficacy, safety and tolerability is investigated by comparing the EMP16 combination product with modified release (MR) orlistat, orlistat in its conventional dosage form and placebo.
To evaluate the efficacy and dose-response relationship of HRS9531 injection compared with placebo in reducing body weight in obese subjects without diabetes after 24 weeks of treatment.
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of once daily oral orforglipron in adult participants with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities.
Native Americans (NAs) have limited access to healthy food and a high prevalence of diet-related diseases. This study will implement an agricultural and health education program in which NA residents of Osage Nation will receive a weekly share of healthy fresh produce coupled with healthy recipes and cooking materials. The program's effect on diet and health outcomes and it's cost-effectiveness will be evaluated, and study processes and findings will be broadly disseminated to support tribes in improving diet and health.
A phase 2 study to assess the efficacy of bimagrumab alone or in addition to semaglutide to assess efficacy and safety in overweight or obese men and women
A pilot study titled "A Virtual Cardiometabolic Health Program for African Immigrants (The Afro-DPP Program) will be conducted to address the cardiometabolic of community-dwelling African immigrants who have multiple cardiometabolic risk factors including hypertension, Type 2 Diabetes, high cholesterol, and overweight/obesity. The proposed study will recruit a total of 60 participants and will use a non-equivalent control group design to test the effectiveness of the intervention at two African churches in the Baltimore, Washington, D.C. area. The two churches will be randomly assigned to the intervention or delayed intervention group. At the end of a 6-month follow-up period, the control church will receive the intervention (delayed control group). All participants will receive a Bluetooth-enabled digital scale (Omron Model: BCM-500) that measures body composition including Body Weight, Body Fat percentage, Visceral Fat, Skeletal Muscle percentage, Resting Metabolism and Body Mass Index. A Bluetooth-enabled blood pressure monitor (Omron Model: BP7250) will also be distributed to all participants. All participants will download the Omron Connect app which will allow the participants to sync participants' blood pressure readings and body composition readings into the app. The research team will access these readings to monitor study outcomes and participants progress during the follow-up period.
Approximately 15 million women of reproductive age women in the United States have overweight or obesity and use the combined estrogen and progestin oral contraceptive pill (COC). Although many women report weight gain as a side effect of COCs, a conclusive link between COC use and weight gain has not been established. This investigation will address a major gap in the literature by prospectively evaluating the influence of initiating a COC versus non-hormonal contraceptives (NHCs) on weight, body composition, eating behaviors, and appetite in pre-menopausal women with overweight or obesity. Aim 1 will assess the feasibility of recruiting and retaining a racially/ethnically diverse group of women with overweight and obesity while Aim 2 will explore changes in body weight, body composition, and cardiometabolic risks in these women; Aim 3 will explore changes in dietary and macronutrient energy intake, eating behaviors, and appetite in this subset of women. This research will help the investigators understand the extent to which COCs are associated with weight gain and help guide medical providers in counseling women with overweight and obesity on appropriate contraceptive methods.
This study evaluates the associations between baseline decision-making processes, engagement in problematic dietary practices, and post-intervention weight loss outcomes among adolescents. Results from the study will provide specific direction for what components should comprise future decision-making interventions for adolescents with overweight/obesity.
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.
This is a single arm phase II study designed to determine the effects of pharmacotherapy and a remote behavioral weight loss intervention on weight loss in breast cancer survivors who are overweight or obese, and the impact of successful weight loss on serum biomarkers and gut microbiome.
