      Smartwatches for Sedentary Lifestyle

      Columbus, Ohio
      The effects of exercise on prevention and improved control of chronic diseases, reduced mortality, and improved quality of life are well established. Exercise has been shown to prevent heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, depression, and certain types of cancers. In addition to prevention, physical activity is included in the standard or care for many chronic diseases and used in treatment. For example, the American Diabetes Association has identified positive health behaviors like physical activity as foundational in the treatment and management of disease and improving overall quality of life. The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Exercise is Medicine Program (EIM) is a physician referral program that aims to increase physical activity to prevent and reduce complications from chronic disease. The integration of technology among a 65+ population of EIM participants provides a novel approach to improving individual's health. Thus, our study aims to provide EIM participants aged 65+ with smartwatches in the hopes of increasing their overall physical activity levels.

      Why Other Patients Applied

      "I have tried to lose weight, but as I get older, it becomes harder and harder. I have lost weight in the past through diet and exercise, but it has been more difficult to accomplish as I age."

      JP
      Obesity PatientAge: 44

      "I am applying for my daughter. She turns 12 this year and is overweight. She's 5'4" and 176 pounds. Would be great to enroll her in a clinical trial to see if this form of care could work for her. Realize that there's no guarantee, but I support her and we'd like to give it a try."

      MW
      Parent of PatientAge: 46

      "I need to lose weight because it's affecting my knees. I've already had a knee replacement and the second one is happening on the left knee in a few months. I've participated in a study in the past for a skin-related issue, and had a good experience. That's why I'm interested in joining a study for wieght loss."

      KI
      Obesity PatientAge: 69

      "I changed my diet in 2020 and I’ve lost 95 pounds from my highest weight (283). I am 5’3”, female, and now 188. I still have a 33 BMI. I've been doing research on alternative approaches to continue my progress, which brought me here to consider clinical trials."

      WR
      Obesity PatientAge: 58

      "I have a heart condition, and my fat is all in my chest, surrounding my heart. It's hard for me to exercise because my legs are thin and the upper body weight is too much — putting strain on my leg joints. It’s a vicious cycle. I am also post-menopausal, which adds additional weight loss difficulty. I also have stress with being a full time caregiver for my mom. I'm interested in trying a clinical trial."

      Safflower Oil + Soy Pretzels for Metabolic Syndrome

      Columbus, Ohio
      This research study is being done to help researchers develop new dietary options for menopausal women to maintain a healthy weight by developing more nutritious snacks that have health benefits. From this study, the researchers hope to gain understanding on how menopausal women with metabolic syndrome digest and absorb foods with safflower oil on its own and when combined with soy. The research team hypothesize that the two different types of pretzels may be processed by your body differently and that components in the pretzel snacks may be helpful for preventing diseases like obesity and cancer. Safflower oil and soybeans contain many natural chemicals that may benefit human health. However, this relationship is not well understood. This study will look at the impact of the pretzel snacks on your blood fat and glucose levels as well as a group of chemicals found in soy called "isoflavones". Isoflavones are natural chemicals found commonly in soybeans or foods made from them. Participants will be screened to determine if they qualify in meeting the study requirements. Participants cannot have a known allergy to dairy, soy, safflower oil, or wheat protein. Also, participants will be asked to stop eating legumes (beans, peas, soy protein, sprouts and peanuts) and to document the oils they eat for the entire 14 weeks of this study. The study will require five visits to the Ohio State University Clinical Research Center (CRC) which part of the Ohio State University's Center for Clinical and Translational Sciences. Once the investigators have determined that you qualify for this study and you decide to participate, you will be consuming three different pretzels each for one month, starting with a control pretzel. After the control pretzel treatment period, you will be randomly assigned (like the "flip of a coin") to start with one of the two pretzel groups (wheat or soy pretzel with safflower oil) for your first treatment period and then switch to the other safflower oil pretzel at your second treatment period.

      Black Impact Intervention for Cardiovascular Health

      Columbus, Ohio
      Lower attainment of cardiovascular health (CVH), indicated by the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7; physical activity, diet, cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, smoking, glycemia) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8; LS7+sleep) metrics, is a major contributor to Black men having the shortest life-expectancy of any non-indigenous race/sex group. Unfortunately, a paucity of literature exists on interventions aimed at improving CVH among Black men. The team of clinician scientists and community partners co-developed a community-based lifestyle intervention titled Black Impact: a 24-week intervention for Black men with less-than-ideal CVH (\<4 LS7 metrics in the ideal range) with 45 minutes of weekly physical activity, 45 minutes of weekly health education, and engagement with a health coach, group fitness trainer, and community health worker. Single-arm pilot testing of the intervention (n=74) revealed high feasibility, acceptability, and retention and a 0.93 (95% confidence interval: 0.40, 1.46, p\<0.001) point increase in LS7 score at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes included improvements in psychosocial stress (i.e., perceived stress, depressive symptoms), patient activation, and social needs. Thus, robustly powered clinical trials are needed to determine the efficacy of Black Impact and to evaluate the underlying interpersonal and molecular pathways by which Black Impact improves psychosocial stress and CVH. Thus, the investigators propose a randomized, wait-list controlled trial of Black Impact. This novel, community-based intervention to provide a scalable model to improve CVH and psychosocial stress at the population level and evaluate the biological underpinnings by which the intervention mitigates cardiovascular disease risk. The proposed study aligns with American Heart Association's commitment to addressing CVH equity through innovative, multi-modal solutions.

      Survodutide for Obesity and Fatty Liver Disease

      Dayton, Ohio
      This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have * presumed or confirmed NASH together with overweight or obesity and * a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or more, or * a BMI of 27 kg/m² and at least one weight-related health problem. People with a history of other chronic liver diseases cannot take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide helps people living with obesity or overweight and a confirmed or presumed liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to have less liver fat and to lose weight. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. 1 group gets different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants and doctors do not know who is in which group. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about 1 year. In addition to the study medicine, all participants receive counselling to make changes to their diet and to exercise regularly. Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 3 months. During this time, it is planned that participants visit the study site up to 14 times and receive 3 phone calls by the site staff. The doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The participants' body weight is regularly measured. At 3 of the visits, the participants' liver is measured using different imaging methods. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Obesity 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 Obesity 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 Obesity 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 Obesity 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 Obesity 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.

      What are the newest Obesity clinical trials?

      Most recently, we added Metabolic Surgery for Atrial Fibrillation, Cagrilintide + CagriSema for Childhood Obesity and Pistachios for Dietary Changes in Obesity to the Power online platform.

      What is the new treatment for obesity?

      The “new” treatments are weekly injections of GLP-1–based drugs such as semaglutide (Wegovy) and the dual GIP/GLP-1 drug tirzepatide (Zepbound), which curb appetite and slow stomach emptying; in large trials they helped adults lose roughly 15-22 % of their starting weight over 12–18 months when combined with diet and exercise. They are prescription-only, must be used long-term to keep the weight off, and while most side-effects are mild stomach upset, they can be expensive and require close medical follow-up—so you and your clinician should weigh these pros and cons against other options like older pills, bariatric surgery, and structured lifestyle programs.

      How much do I get paid for a clinical trial?

      There is no single rate, but in the U.S. healthy-volunteer Phase I studies usually pay about $75–$150 for a short outpatient visit or $300–$500 per overnight, adding up to roughly $1,500–$6,000 for a multi-day study; later-phase trials for people who already have the illness typically offer a smaller stipend—often $25–$100 per visit—plus travel reimbursement. Amounts are set case-by-case by the study sponsor and ethics board, based on the time you give up, the inconvenience or discomfort involved (blood draws, overnight stays, special diets), and any out-of-pocket costs, and they must be prorated so you can stop at any time and still receive payment for the visits you’ve completed.

      How much weight can you lose with ESG surgery?

      Large studies find that people lose roughly 15–20 % of their starting weight after endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty—about 30–50 lb if you begin at 200–250 lb—and most keep the bulk of that off for at least two years when they stay in a structured nutrition and activity program. Your exact result can be higher or lower depending on your initial BMI, how closely you follow the dietary and lifestyle plan, and whether you attend regular follow-up visits with the bariatric team.

      What weight is considered obese?

      For adults, obesity starts at a body-mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m²—so take your height in metres, square it, and multiply by 30 to see the weight cut-off. Example: 5′4″ (1.63 m) → 1.63² × 30 ≈ 88 kg / 194 lb; 6′0″ (1.83 m) → 1.83² × 30 ≈ 102 kg / 225 lb. BMI is only a quick gauge—muscle mass, ethnicity, waist size, and other health factors matter too—so use it as a starting point and confirm risks with your healthcare professional.

      Who is eligible for tirzepatide?

      Tirzepatide is eligible for adults in two settings: (1) as Mounjaro to improve blood-sugar control in type-2 diabetes, and (2) as Zepbound for weight management if you have obesity (BMI ≥ 30) or are overweight (BMI ≥ 27) with at least one related condition such as high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol, sleep apnea, heart disease, or type-2 diabetes. You are NOT a candidate if you’re pregnant, under 18, or have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN-2; your doctor will also screen for issues like pancreatitis, severe stomach problems, or other risks before prescribing. In short, meeting the diabetes or weight criteria and having no major contraindications makes you a potential candidate, but final approval comes after a thorough medical review.

      What tests are done for unexplained weight gain?

      Doctors usually start with a history and physical exam, then order a small “baseline” panel—complete blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel (kidney + liver), fasting glucose/HbA1c, cholesterol, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and a pregnancy test in women of child-bearing age. If exam findings point to a specific cause, they add focused tests: e.g., cortisol or prolactin for suspected hormone tumors, sex-hormone and ultrasound for possible PCOS, heart or kidney studies for fluid retention, or imaging of the pituitary/adrenal glands. In short, everyone gets the core labs, and any further blood work or scans are chosen only when your symptoms or medications suggest a particular problem.

      Can a morbidly obese person lose weight without surgery?

      Yes. Rigorous studies show that people with class III (“morbid”) obesity can shed 6-8 % of their starting weight through weekly lifestyle-coaching programs, and often 15-20 % when the same program is paired with new once-a-week injections such as semaglutide (Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Zepbound); endoscopic sleeve procedures add another non-surgical option in the same range. Because even a 5-10 % loss markedly improves blood pressure, diabetes and sleep-apnea, doctors usually start with dietitian-guided eating plans, gradual activity and behaviour counselling, then add medication if weight hasn’t dropped by about 5 % after three months—saving surgery for those who still need more help.

      How to get rid of fat deposits on legs?

      You can’t melt fat from your legs alone, so aim for gradual overall weight loss (a modest calorie deficit built around whole foods) while doing both full-body cardio and leg-strength exercises such as squats or lunges 2-3 times a week—the combo burns calories and builds muscle that makes legs look firmer as fat comes off. If your legs stay disproportionately large, painful or bruise easily, ask a clinician about lipedema or other medical causes, because lifestyle changes help most people but specialised treatment is sometimes needed.

      How to get Ozempic for weight loss?

      Ozempic (semaglutide) can be prescribed for weight loss, but it is technically an off-label use; most clinicians instead start with the weight-loss version of the same drug, Wegovy. To pursue either one, confirm you meet typical criteria (BMI ≥30, or ≥27 with a weight-related condition), then see a primary-care doctor, endocrinologist, or an obesity-medicine/telehealth service that can review your labs, rule out contraindications, and submit any required prior-authorization to your insurer or the manufacturer’s savings program. Expect a gradual dose-escalation schedule, routine follow-ups for side-effects such as nausea, and the need to pair the medication with diet and activity changes to maintain the ~15 % average weight loss seen in clinical trials.

      Which drink is good for belly fat loss?

      No drink can “melt” belly fat on its own; losing abdominal fat still comes down to taking in fewer calories than you burn. The most studied helpers are plain water (pre-meal water can curb appetite), unsweetened green tea or black coffee (their caffeine and, for green tea, catechins give a small metabolic boost). Choose these without added sugar, pair them with balanced meals and regular exercise, and they can support—rather than drive—belly-fat loss.
