Endo-Band: Endoscopic Band Ligation for Weight Loss
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to use endoscopic band ligation for weight loss. All ligatures will be performed in the gastric body starting at the distal body; 5 parallel rows, with the last one in the proximal body.The entire procedure can be completed in …
Preoperative Weight Loss for Open Abdominal Wall Reconstruction
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare preoperative intensive weight management to upfront surgery in obese patients undergoing complex abdominal wall reconstruction. The main question is will abdominal wall specific quality of life (using the HerQLes survey) for the group undergoing upfront surgery be non-inferior compared to …
Tirzepatide Weight Loss for MRD+ Early Breast Cancer
This trial aims to asses if tirzepatide-induced weight loss will lead to metabolic and hormonal changes in hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor-negative (HER2-), node-positive (N+) high risk early breast cancer patients with obesity or overweight, inhibiting the growth and survival of micrometastatic disease and leading to clearance …
Time Restricted Eating for WeIght LoSs MainTenance-2
The TWIST 2.0 Study is a 12-month, 2-arm RCT in adults with recent weight loss. We will examine the efficacy of TRE on weight (Aim 1a) and fat mass (Aim 1b) regain, and describe changes in subjective appetite following a mixed-meal tolerance test (Exploratory).
Weight Loss Study: Genetics and Response to Naltrexone/Bupropion
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand if genetic variations are associated with the amount of weight loss with diet and while taking an FDA-approved medication for weight loss. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: In Aim One, the investigators propose to rigorously test the hypothesis …
Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss With and Without Exercise
Study Purpose: The combination of caloric restriction and exercise is the most common first-line treatment for obesity-related disorders, yet we know very little about how these two very different treatments work together. A deeper understanding about mechanisms underlying the health benefits of adding exercise to a weight loss program will …
Strategies for Improving Remote-based Weight Loss (PATH Trial)
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the addition of online yoga classes, compared to health and wellness classes, can improve the amount of weight loss produced from an Internet-based weight loss program. All individuals will receive a 12-month, automated Internet-based weight loss program. Following 3 months of …
Adipocyte-Derived Extracellular Vesicles, Weight Loss, and Endothelial Function
Changes in adipose tissue biology are now recognized as a key factor underlying the increased risk of metabolic and cardiovascular disease with obesity. Clinical interest in adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles (Ad-EVs) has intensified due to their potential as circulating biomarkers of adipose tissue health and systemic messengers, regulators and mediators of …
Intervention Study on Weight Loss in Patients With Obesity
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility of using Socratic questioning as an alternative method for weight loss in adult patients with obesity (aged 18 to 65) in a primary care setting. The main question it aims to answer is: -Is Socratic questioning an effective alternative …
Modified Intermittent Eating on Weight Loss (INTEREST-3 Trial)
Calorie restriction (CR) is the most important treatment for weighting loss. In recent years, two novel types of intermittent fasting recently have gained more attention: the 5:2 diet and time-restricted eating (TRE). TRE requires individuals to eat in a specified number of hours per day (typically 4 to 10 hours) …
