CC Trial Summary

This trial will test whether a food response training intervention can help people lose body fat and keep it off. The project will also use brain imaging to examine how the intervention works, and whether it can be generalized to other types of food.

Eligible Conditions
  • Obesity
  • Binge Eating
  • Eating Disorders

CC Trial Design

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Experimental ConditionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will complete computer-based response training tasks that will incorporate pictures of healthy food, unhealthy food, and glasses of water. As part of the computer-based training, participants will be instructed to respond or inhibit responses to certain of these stimuli in order to bring about a change in the participant response to certain stimuli. These tasks will be structured identically to those presented in the control condition, only the appearance and context of the stimuli will be different (i.e., food versus non-food items). The computer tasks described above comprise the Computer Based Response Training Weight Loss Intervention. To optimize the intervention, we narrowed the low-calorie food stimulus set to make a better distinction between high-calorie and low-calorie foods and we changed the filler images (water and furry mammals) in the go/no-go task from 100% "go" to 50% "go" and 50% "no-go" to measure learning of stimulus-specific respond associations.
Group II: Control ConditionActive Control1 Intervention
Participants will complete computer based response training tasks that will incorporate pictures of birds, flowers, and mammals. As part of the computer based training, participants will be instructed to respond or inhibit response to certain of these stimuli in order to bring about a change in the participant response to certain stimuli. These tasks will be structured identically to those presented in the experimental condition, only the appearance and context of the stimuli will be different (i.e., non-food versus food items). The computer tasks described above comprise the Generic Response Training Control Intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Does this study accept participants older than seventy years old?

"The minimum and maximum age for participants of this trial is 18 to 38. There are 247 clinical studies enrolling people under the legal age, and 644 trials catering to seniors above the age of 65."

Answered by AI

Are there any participants being recruited for this research project at the moment?

"Information hosted on clinicaltrials.gov suggests that this protocol is no longer seeking out new participants, with the last update to its page logged in May 26th 2022. However, 1049 other studies are currently recruiting patients at this time."

Answered by AI

Is there an opportunity for me to take part in this research study?

"This medical trial is currently recruiting 180 individuals suffering from eating disorders. The target age range for participants stands between 18 and 38 years old, with a BMI that lies within 25 to 35 points."
