Digital Health Tech + Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The purpose of this study is to identify the independent and combined effects of two types of self-monitoring and two types of micro-interventions when combined with standard cognitive behavioral treatment for bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED). The primary aims of this study are (1) to evaluate the optimal complexity of Self-Monitoring and Micro-Interventions on eating pathology (at post-treatment and at 6 and 12-month follow-ups and (2) to test the hypotheses that the optimal complexity level of each component is moderated by baseline deficits in self-regulation. The secondary aim will be to test target engagement for each level of complexity for each component, i.e., to test whether higher complexity of each technological components is associated with better rates of therapeutic skill use and acquisition and that improvements in skill use and acquisition are associated with improvements in outcomes. A final exploratory aim will be to quantify the component interaction effects, which may be partially additive (because components overlap and/or there is diminishing return), fully additive, or synergistic (in that component complexities may partially depend on each other).

Medically Tailored Meals for High Blood Pressure
New York, New York
This randomized clinical trial (RCT) will investigate novel approaches to enhance effectiveness, engagement, reach, and cost-effectiveness of medically tailored meals (MTM) programs for promoting cardiovascular health equity, focusing on economically disadvantaged New York City neighborhoods with a disparate burden of multiple cardiometabolic diseases. The main questions the RCT aims to answer are:
1. Does enhancing MTM programs, with culturally relevant cardiovascular health curriculum (including educational sessions on heart health, healthy diet, cooking demonstrations, recipes, gift bags with healthy ingredients, and addressing social needs) enhance program engagement and effectiveness in improving short-term healthy eating behaviors and clinical outcomes (HbA1c and blood pressure) among individuals with type 2 diabetes and elevated blood pressure who currently qualify for MTM programs?
2. Is the MTM program coupled with the Cardiovascular Health (CVH) curriculum effective for improving healthy eating behaviors and clinical outcomes (HbA1c and blood pressure) among individuals with type 2 diabetes and elevated blood pressure who do not currently quality for MTM programs and is a gradual reduction of MTM dosing an effective and sustainable approach for expanding reach of these programs?
To answer question 1, 100 participants with type 2 diabetes and elevated blood pressure who currently qualify for MTM programs will be randomized into a group that receives the standard MTM program (10 MTMs/week for 8 months) or a group that receives the standard program plus the cardiovascular health curriculum.
To answer question 2, 100 participants with type 2 diabetes and elevated blood pressure who do not currently qualify for MTM programs will be randomized into a group that receives the standard MTM program (10 MTMs/week for 8 months) plus the cardiovascular health curriculum or a group that receives standard MTM program for the first 3 months followed by a gradual reduction in dosing of the MTMs by 50% over the remaining 5 months plus the CVH curriculum.
All participants will have their HbA1c and blood pressure measured and complete questionnaires about their diet quality, health and lifestyle behaviors, and program engagement and implementation at baseline, 3 months, and 8 months.

Sleep Health for Heart and Metabolic Health
New York, New York
Improving multiple domains of cardiometabolic health (CMH) through contextual behavioral interventions has the potential to substantially reduce persistent chronic disease disparities. Sleep is critical for preserving CMH and is amenable to intervention in real-world settings. Although sleep health, in conjunction with other lifestyle behaviors, can improve CMH through complementary or synergistic pathways, most existing lifestyle change programs focus solely on diet and physical activity. Sleep2BWell is a community-based cluster randomized trial aimed at evaluating the impact of incorporating a multidimensional sleep health intervention into the BWell4Life program, an ongoing 4-week program for promoting CMH through healthy diet and physical activity, delivered by peer health educators at faith-based organizations and community centers in underserved NYC neighborhoods. The enhanced 6-week intervention, Sleep2BWell, will include the following additional components: 1) two sleep health education and group coaching sessions, 2) self-monitoring and motivational enhancement using a Fitbit, and 3) addressing prevalent environmental barriers to healthy sleep in urban settings such as noise and light with a novel and timely extension to address indoor air pollution. A total of 14 community sites will be randomized into the intervention (Sleep2BWell) or control (BWell4Life) group, enrolling an average of 15 participants per site for an expected sample of 210. The investigators will collect objective measures of sleep and physical activity throughout the study, and assess diet and CMH outcomes at baseline, 10 weeks (primary endpoint), and 24 weeks (long-term follow-up to assess sustainability of the intervention's effect). The investigators hypothesize that Sleep2BWell will enhance the effectiveness of BWell4Life leading to greater improvements in CMH, including reduced blood pressure (primary outcome) improved health behaviors (sleep, diet, physical activity) and adiposity markers (secondary outcomes), as well as better glycemic control and inflammatory and allostatic load indicators (exploratory outcomes). To ensure the successful completion and future expansion of this work, this study will use mixed methods to understand implementation determinants and outcomes, guided by implementation science frameworks. This first-of-its-kind effectiveness-implementation study, addressing individual level behaviors and factors and upstream influences and leveraging key behavior change and community engagement strategies, will investigate the integration of sleep health into a multi-behavior lifestyle change intervention aimed at addressing CMH disparities in community settings. This innovative multilevel intervention will inform scalable sustainable community health approaches and public health policy to improve sleep health and CMH disparities through advancement in novel multilevel bundled behavioral interventions.

Time Restricted Eating for Type 2 Diabetes
New York, New York
Time-restricted feeding limits caloric intake to active daytime hours with fasting for 14 to 16 hours. It has shown great promise as a novel intervention for stabilizing blood glucose, reducing weight, and improving cardiovascular disease outcomes. However, this approach has not been tested on people with diabetes, a group that would benefit from improved blood glucose and weight loss.
The impact of Time-Restricted Eating on Type 2 Diabetes Study (EaT2D Study) is a randomized six-day weight stable crossover feeding study in the Day Patient/Outpatient unit of The Rockefeller Hospital investigating how the time of day that meals are eaten affects weight, blood sugar and blood pressure. The investigators will compare an early time-restricted eating intervention (80% of calories consumed before 2 pm) to a usual feeding pattern (50% of calories consumed after 4 pm) among 10 persons with type 2 diabetes to determine effects on blood sugar and small molecules found in the blood.
Studies have shown benefits of eating during active periods (mornings and early afternoon) for metabolic health (blood sugar, body weight) compared to eating during inactive periods (evening and bedtime). Eating earlier in the day may lead to reduced sugar stores, burning fat for energy, and decreased inflammation when compared to eating later in the day. The investigators will compare the effects of eating earlier during the day for six days versus later in the day for six days, on blood sugar, blood pressure, blood ketones, and other measures of metabolic health in diabetic participants. Studies in animals supports these benefits.

Time-Restricted Eating vs Traditional Dieting for Obesity
New york, New York
Over half of American adults have overweight or obesity and are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Although caloric restriction has many health benefits, it is difficult to sustain overtime for most people. Time restricted eating (TRE), a novel type of intermittent fasting, facilitates adherence to the intervention and results in weight loss and improvement of metabolism. The investigators propose to examine the efficacy of self-monitoring and TRE (10-h/d) vs. self-monitoring and habitual prolonged eating duration (HABIT) (13 hours/d) on weight loss and body composition, metabolic function and circadian biology, in metabolically unhealthy adults aged 50 to 75 y old, with overweight or obesity. The investigators hypothesize that TRE, compared to habitual long duration of eating, will decrease cardiovascular risk burden.

Healthy Food Delivery for Type 2 Diabetes Management
Jonesboro, Arkansas
Our long-term goal is to transform rural residents' management of T2DM. This study's objective is to determine the effectiveness of an intervention that is scalable and sustainable and promotes patient adherence by mitigating rural food insecure participants' difficulties associated with completing existing interventions. Our specific aims are:
1. Compare the effectiveness of the Healthy Food Delivery Intervention (HFDI) plus standard care and standard care alone to improve diabetes-related outcomes among rural food insecure patients with T2DM. Hypothesis: Compared with standard care alone, patients receiving the HFDI plus standard care will demonstrate improved: H1 glycemic control as measured by HbA1c; H2 cardio-metabolic risk factors: blood pressure, fasting glucose, fasting lipids, and BMI; H3 self-management: self-efficacy, adherence to self-management behaviors, and medication adherence; H4 patient-centered outcomes: diabetes-related distress, diabetes-related quality of life, and diabetes-related complications.
2. Compare the effectiveness of the HFDI plus standard care and standard care alone to improve diet quality among rural food insecure patients with T2DM. Hypothesis: Compared with standard care alone, patients receiving the HFDI plus standard care will demonstrate improved: H1 Healthy Eating Index 2015 (HEI-2015) scores; H2 fruit and vegetable consumption.
3. Compare cost-effectiveness to understand HFDI plus standard care costs in relationship to outcomes in relation to standard care alone. Hypothesis: The HFDI will be cost-effective based on traditional cost per additional quality-adjusted life year gained.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Eating clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Eating clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Eating trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Eating is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Eating medical study?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
