Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and tolerability of LY3305677 when given to participants with obesity or overweight. Blood tests will be performed to investigate how the body processes the study drug and how the study drug affects the body. Each enrolled participant will receive injections of LY3305677 or placebo given just under the skin. For each participant, the study will last about approximately 28 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether strength training can be used as a viable exercise modality for the purpose of inducing fat loss.
The study is a single site parallel randomized controlled study. The study will be assessing the effect of approximately 10% weight loss intervention vs a control group among healthy females/couples where the prospective mother is overweight or obese (BMI 27-45 kg/m^2) and between 18-38 years. The investigators will recruit a total of 240 healthy females/couples who will be randomized 1:1 to either intervention or control, stratified according to maternal pre-pregnancy BMI. The overall objective is to test whether a comprehensive pre-conceptional parental weight loss intervention effectively reduces the risk of offspring overweight and adiposity and its complications compared to a control group. The investigators hypothesize that parental weight loss intervention, initiated before conception, will facilitate lower parental insulin resistance, inflammation, body weight and adiposity, incretin responses compared to usual care. For the offspring the investigators hypothesize that the intervention will reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes with a reduction in offspring neonatal adiposity, reduced risk of being born large for gestational age (LGA) and with lower BMI z-score at 18 months.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of immature ponkan (Citrus reticulate) extract on body weight and body fat in overweight and obese adults.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of H42-HV integrated into home visiting compared with usual home visiting services in reducing postpartum weight retention (difference between pre-pregnancy weight and weight at 6 months postpartum) among pregnant and postpartum people. The intervention is tailored for Black and Latinx pregnant and postpartum people and, ultimately, aims to address inequities in cardiometabolic health.
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions globally, alongside its associated comorbidities including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer. Effective weight management strategies are thus paramount to improve the population´s health. One of the key causes of obesity lies in excessive energy consumption derived from eating too large portions of food. In this context, practical tools to control portion size represent a promising, cost-effective strategy. This study will investigate whether using an optimized portion-control toolkit to consume a meal under controlled laboratory conditions has a positive effect on the nutritional quality of the meal as well as any benefits in physiological, cognitive, affective and behavioural outcomes. The study will involve 40 volunteers with overweight or obesity who will attend two lunch sessions at the Center for Nutrition Research of the University of Navarra (Spain) on two different days. At each session, participants will be invited to self-serve and eat a lunch from a cold buffet. On day one, participants will self-serve and season their food using control tools (conventional kitchen serving spoons and oil dispenser). On day two, participants will self-serve the same foods as on day one but using experimental tools (calibrated portion-control serving spoons and calibrated oil dispenser). A set of cognitive tests will be completed before, during and after the meal. Conventional and experimental tools will be compared in terms of the following variables: meal portion size and energy density, cognitive effort while serving food, cephalic and intestinal satiety responses, appetite sensations, energy adjustment post-meal, awareness of the quantities of the previously consumed foods and recalibration of portion size norms. Additionally, the study will explore acceptance for and intention to use the optimized portion control toolkit, as well as intention to change eating habits. It is expected that the findings from this study will shed light into the cognitive and physiological processes associated with portion control. It may also help to explain individual variations in the responses to obesogenic environments, which will hopefully lead to improved personalized interventions.
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
The trial is a single-centre, randomised and double-blind within cohorts, placebo-controlled, sequential multiple ascending dose trial in normal weight and overweight but otherwise healthy subjects randomised to subcutaneous administration of ZP8396 or placebo
The purpose of this study is to find out if moderate exercise at different time during the day (early morning vs early evening) affects biomarker CTX of bone health in normal to overweight postmenopausal women.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of IBI362 in overweight or obese subjects. Subjects will be randomly assigned to IBI362 low-dose, high-dose and placebo groups. The entire trial cycle includes a 2-week screening period, a 48-week double-blind treatment period, and a 12-week drug withdrawal follow-up period after the end of treatment.
