AZD9550 for Fatty Liver Disease

Surrey, British Columbia
AZD9550, previously being developed for the treatment NASH, is a dual GCG and GLP-1 receptor agonist. AZD9550 is now being developed in combination with AZD6234, a SARA, for the treatment of overweight and obesity and its associated co-morbidities. Co-administration of AZD9550 and AZD6234 is currently being evaluated in participants living with obesity and overweight without T2DM in an ongoing Phase 2b study. The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and effects of increasing doses of AZD9550 monotherapy in overweight and obese participants aged 18 through 65 years living with or without T2DM, and to investigate how AZD9550 is absorbed, distributed, and eliminated from the body (Parts A-D). In addition, the study will investigate the safety and tolerability of co-administration of AZD9550 and AZD6234 in participants living with T2DM with obesity or overweight aged 18 through 75 years (Part E).

Portable Device for Weight Management

Kelowna, British Columbia
Obesity is a leading risk factor for chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Generic weight management programs that target dietary intake and physical activity have been shown to be ineffective in maintaining weight loss beyond a 6-month period. Personalizing weight management programs produces more weight loss than generic programs, possibly through improved self-efficacy (confidence in one's ability to control weight through behavior). One way to personalize diet goals for individuals is by resting metabolic rate (RMR; 'metabolism'). This study will explore adherence and satisfaction of 6-weeks repeated at-home measures of metabolism using a portable device in healthy adults with and without obesity. Relationships among adherence and satisfaction outcomes to health behavior variables will be explored using dietary recalls, exercise monitors and questionnaires. Investigators will conduct a 6-week, one-arm feasibility study in order to address these questions. Twenty men and women ages 19-65 will be recruited (up to n=25 participants), among which 10 participants will have a body mass index (BMI) of ≥30kg/m2 (classified as having obesity), and the remaining 10 participants will have a body mass index (BMI) of \< 29.9kg/m2 (classified as not having obesity). The baseline study visit will evaluate participant's anthropometric measures, RMR using the ParvoMedics TrueOne 2400 and Breezing indirect calorimeters, psychological and behavioural related parameters. An activPAL device will be provided to measure participant physical activity. Completion of a 3-day diet record following the baseline study visit, in which participants keep a record of all food and beverages consumed over 2 weekdays and 1 weekend, is required. Participants will be asked to use the Breezing device from home to measure their RMR one time/week on the same day of the week (± one day) and at the same time each morning for six consecutive weeks following the baseline visit. A weekly Qualtrics survey will be sent to participants to monitor adherence. A follow-up visit after the six weeks will assess participant's body composition using a Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA), in addition to completion of a user satisfaction interview with a study team member for descriptive analysis. The measures taken at the baseline study visit will be repeated at the follow-up visit.

The research in this VA Merit will examine the effects of obesity and Post-COVID Conditions (PCC) on physical functioning, health-related quality of life, and adipose tissue inflammatory and cellular senescence profiles in older Veterans. Further, it will evaluate whether a weight loss intervention, including dietary modification and exercise, in obese Veterans with and without PCC will reduce systemic and adipose tissue inflammation and senescence and promote PCC recovery.

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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."
