405 Participants Needed

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a physician led, multi-disciplinary approach to treating obesity that incorporates nutrition (mainly, using genetics to identify appropriate food intake), exercise, and motivational counseling. The investigators plan to recruit overweight/obese (BMI\>25) males and females to participate. Participants will be randomized to receive a personalized diet plan, or a standard care diet plan; both groups will participate in the exercise intervention. For a 6-month duration, both groups will be asked to improve their diet according to their dietary plan and participate in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (gradual increase up to 300 min/week). The investigators intend to evaluate standard outcomes of weight loss, and assess for any predictors of positive outcomes. Following the six-month intervention, participants will complete a 3-month no contact phase. This no contact phase will provide insight into the effects of the study on weight loss maintenance. Our team also plans to address acceptability by providing evaluations to study participants and conducting interviews with a small subset of participants to improve the intervention for the future.

Step Counts for Obesity

Kennesaw, Georgia
The prevalence of overweight and obesity remains epidemic in the United States, with some of the highest rates seen in older adults. While this phenomenon is certainly multifactorial, a good deal of evidence suggests that insufficient physical activity (PA) contributes significantly. Pilot data recently collected in a laboratory indicates a strong, inverse relationship between daily step counts and body fatness and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) factors when step counts are expressed relative to fat mass in young adults. This expression of PA may be especially predictive of body composition because it is influenced by factors that influence appetite and energy intake, energy expenditure, and the energy "reservoir" that is represented by body fat stores, all three elements of the "settling point" model of body weight. The strength of this relationship suggests that prescription of step counts that consider current body weight and composition, and weight loss goal, may yield predictable changes in weight and CMR in adults eating ad libitum. The long-term objective of this study is to quantify the relationship between daily step counts and body composition in young, middle aged, and older adults who are overweight/obese and develop a regression model that can be used to prescribe physical activity (daily step counts) for achieving a specific target body weight and predictably improving CMR risk for young, middle-aged, and older adult men and women over eight months while eating ad libitum. To achieve this objective, investigators will undertake two specific aims: 1) quantify the relationship between average steps·kg fat mass-1·day-1 and body composition/CMR profiles in healthy, overweight, and obese adults 20-39 years, 40-59 years, 60-79 years, and 80-plus years old, using inexpensive, widely available triaxial pedometers while eating ad libitum, and 2) quantify the efficacy of employing targeted step counts expressed as steps·kg fat mass-1·day-1 using the model developed in Aim 1 for producing predictable improvements in body composition and CMR factors in overweight and obese adults 20-39, 40-59, 60-79, and 80-plus years old, over 8 months while eating ad libitum. This study will result in a regression model that may significantly improve the way that PA is prescribed for weight management, with vast clinical and public health implications.

Circadian rhythm disruption caused by shift work alters metabolic and hormonal pathways, which accelerates chronic disease onset, leading to decreased quality and quantity of life. Preclinical studies indicate that optimizing nutrient and sleep/rest timing can mitigate these effects. Female nightshift healthcare workers will be recruited to participate in a randomized crossover trial in which participants will be expected to follow the prescribed lifestyle intervention for eight weeks during the first or second eight-week periods of the study.

The goal of this hybrid Type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial is to test the extent to which a peer support and community resource navigation intervention improves psychological well-being, addresses social determinants of health and thus reduces cardiometabolic risk among rural, migrant, low-income farmworker women aged 18-45 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: * If and to what extent does the intervention reduce stress, social isolation, and psychological distress by improving social support and access to needed resources? * If and to what extent does the intervention improve cardiometabolic health, measured by the American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 (LE8) score? Researchers will compare the CHW-led Sisters of Heart (Hermanas de Corazón) intervention to a Basic intervention (LE8 assessment and resource information) to assess the effect of peer support and community resource navigation on heart health outcomes.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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 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."

DK
Obesity PatientAge: 56

"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 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 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."

CX11 for Obesity

Thomasville, Georgia
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical study: * To evaluate the efficacy of different dose levels of CX11 tablets in body weight reduction as compared to placebo. * To compare the changes of effects in weight and weight-related indicators at the visit time points. * To evaluate the tolerability and safety of different doses of CX11 tablets in overweight/obese participants. * To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of different doses of CX11 tablets in overweight/obese participants. Overweight/obese participants who are successfully screened will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio to different doses of CX11 tablets or placebo. All participants will enter a 2-week follow-up period after 36 weeks of treatment for safety observation.
