619 Clinical Trials for Obesity
This study will look at how well CagriSema helps people living with obesity to lose weight and maintain the weight loss long-term. The study has 2 parts: The first part is called 'the main study' and the second part is called 'the extension study'. In the main study participants will either get CagriSema (a study medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine that looks like CagriSema but has no active ingredient). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants are two times more likely to get CagriSema than placebo. If participants get CagriSema in the main study, participants will continue on CagriSema in the extension study. Which dose of CagriSema participants will continue on is decided by chance. If participants get placebo in the main study, participants will get CagriSema in the extension study. Participants will take one injection of study medicine once a week. The study will last for about 3 years and 3 months.
The purpose of this Master Protocol is to support two studies to see how well and how safely orforglipron works compared to placebo in participants who have obesity or overweight with or without type 2 diabetes. Participants will be screened for about 4 weeks, after which they will enroll into either J2A-MC-GZP1, NCT06972459 (do not have type 2 diabetes) or J2A-MC-GZP2, NCT06972472 (have type 2 diabetes).

Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease worldwide and predominately affects individuals with overweight and obesity, as well as those with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Tirzepatide is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. It has also been shown to help with MASLD. The purpose of this study is to study how tirzepatide affects the liver in patients with MASLD. Participants will be asked to: * Take tirzepatide for 12 months. * Come in for clinic visits every 3 months. * Have blood drawn at baseline, 6, and 12 months. * Complete a liver ultrasound at baseline and at 12 months.
Obesity is a major risk factor for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). The underlying mechanisms are largely unclear, but maternal vascular endothelial dysfunction is likely involved. Endothelial dysfunction in HDP could be attributed to 1) alterations in the L-arginine/nitric oxide (NO) pathway, and 2) an increase in endothelin-1 (ET-1). Additionally, augmented sympathetic vasoconstriction may also contribute to HDP. Chronic (repeated) whole-body heat exposure has been shown to increase NO bioavailability, decrease ET-1, and cause functional and structural adaptations in the vasculature. All these can improve vascular function, attenuate sympathetic (re)activity, lower blood pressure (BP), and reduce cardiovascular risk in non-pregnant individuals. Whether this is also true after regional (leg) heating in high-risk pregnant women is unknown. The investigators' central hypothesis is that chronic leg heating will be effective in improving vascular endothelial function and attenuating sympathetic vasoconstriction, leading to a reduction of the risk for HDP in pregnant women with obesity. The overarching goal of this proposal is to determine the vascular and neural effects of chronic leg heating in obese pregnancy. The study team plans to enroll pregnant women with obesity between 12-14 weeks of gestation and randomly assign them to either an intervention group or a control group (1:1 ratio). Participants in the intervention group will perform 16 weeks of home-based leg heating using a portable sauna blanket up to the hip (temperature of the blanket will be set at 65°C, 4 times/week, 45 min/session), whereas women in the control group will set the temperature of the blanket at 35°C at the same frequency and duration. Participants will be evaluated at baseline and then at 28-30 weeks of gestation. Aim 1 will determine the effects of chronic leg heating on maternal vascular function and surrogate markers of HDP. Aim 2 will determine the effects of chronic leg heating on sympathetic vasoconstriction and BP. Findings from this project will provide insight on the extent and potential mechanisms of how chronic leg heating works for improving vascular endothelial function and sympathetic vasoconstriction in pregnant women with obesity. Results obtained will set a foundation for future large multicenter clinical trials to determine the efficacy and generalizability of home-based leg heat therapy as a safe, ease-of-use, cost-effective, and non-drug approach for reducing the risk of HDP.
This project is an observational study in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who are candidates for treatment with weight loss medication to manage obesity or diabetes as part of their standard clinical care. This study will include multiple experimental visits before and after treatment (minimum 7 percent weight loss, between 9-12 months) to understand how increased adiposity and inflammation effects skeletal muscle and cardiovascular health and function and to examine the effect of medically directed weight loss on skeletal muscle health and exercise tolerance. The objective of this study is to 1. Define the mechanisms by which adiposity impairs exercise hemodynamics, microvascular function, and oxygen transport/utilization in patients with HFpEF. 2. Determine if intensive medically directed weight loss can reduce microvascular inflammation and normalize exercise hemodynamics. 3. Quantify the effect of medically directed weight loss on skeletal muscle function and catabolism. Hypotheses 1. Perfusion of subcutaneous adipose tissue disrupts blood flow distribution and impairs muscle microvascular perfusion and exercise hemodynamics. 2. Extramyocellular muscular lipid deposition and microvascular endothelial inflammation is associated with reduced capillarity and impaired microvascular perfusions, while intramyocellular triglyceride content is associated with poor skeletal muscle oxidative capacity, 3. Intensive weight loss will improve exercise hemodynamics, microvascular perfusion, and reduce muscular inflammation, and resistance training will augment these effects.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate efficacy and safety of three doses of petrelintide versus placebo in participants with overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well eloralintide and eloralintide with tirzepatide is tolerated and what side effects may occur in participants with overweight or obesity. The study drug will be administered subcutaneously (SC) (under the skin). Blood tests will be performed to check how much eloralintide and eloralintide with tirzepatide get into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it. There will be 6 cohorts. The study will last up to approximately 26 weeks, excluding screening for Cohorts A and B, 11 weeks for Cohorts C and D, and 12 weeks for Cohorts E and F.
The main purpose of this study is to find out how well and how safely tirzepatide works in adults who have type 1 diabetes and obesity or overweight. Participation in the study will last about 49 weeks.
This study is designed to test how well once-weekly MET097 (an ultra-long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist) works to treat adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared to placebo. MET097 or placebo will be administered to individuals via subcutaneous injection once weekly for 28 weeks. If an individual is randomly assigned to MET097 they will receive one of four different dose regimens.
Our goal is to explore the effectiveness of 9- month lifestyle medicine based coaching intervention (individual and group coaching) versus control (usual care/ written health instructions). The primary study outcomes will be mean changes in body composition metrics . Secondary outcomes will be the prevalence of metabolic abnormities, progression/regression of Metabolic Syndrome, push-up \& sit/stand capacity, self-reported physical activity, and quality of life/diet/sleep measures.
The investigators project, RESONATE, aims to investigate why some children develop obesity. To do this it uses data on eating and eating-related behaviors, genetic and environmental factors, and brain structure and function. This data is collected in a sub-sample of RESONANCE, a large study of families of children from infancy through childhood. The results will lay foundations for the development of early interventions to prevent or treat obesity.
This is a study of retatrutide in participants with obesity. The main purpose is to learn more about how retatrutide maintains body weight loss. The study will have two treatment phases: an 80 week lead-in phase in which all participants will take retatrutide dose 1 and a 36 week randomized, double-blinded phase in which participants will either take retatrutide dose 1, retatrutide dose 2, or switch to placebo. Participation in the study will last around 125 weeks.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that maridebart cafraglutide is superior to placebo for percent change in body weight.

This is a Phase 2a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial studying the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of orally administered TERN-601 in adults with overweight or obesity.
This is a prospective, pragmatic, 21 month, single-center, randomized, 2-phased, open-label, parallel-group trial comparing the use of enhanced lifestyle changes (ELC) in two different sequential anti obesity medication (AOM) therapies. The ELC consists of a medically-supervised and comprehensive weight loss program (Cleveland Clinic's Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism's Integrated Weight Management Program). In the first phase (9 months) of the study, all participants will receive tirzepatide 15 mg (option #1) or semaglutide 2.4 mg if tirzepatide is not tolerated. In the second phase, after completing 9 months of tirzpeatide or semaglutide, participants will continue ELC and will be randomly assigned to a different oral AOM therapy for another 12 months: group 1 (phentermine-topiramate or naltrexone-bupropion) or group 2 (orlistat). The primary endpoint will be the percentage weight loss at 21 months compared to weight loss at 9 months. The goal will be to show superiority of the arm receiving ELC plus AOM therapy (phentermine-topiramate or naltrexone-bupropion) when compared to the other AOM therapy group (orlistat). Secondary and exploratory endpoints will include percentage of fat mass loss, lean muscle mass, functional capacity, muscle strength and compliance to enhanced lifestyle changes. Informed consent will be obtained. IRB approval of the study will be obtained.
This Phase II study is a randomized, parallel group, double blinded, placebo-controlled, multicenter to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of AZD6234 in adults with overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes on stable GLP-1 RA therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of an evidence-based multi-level intervention for weight loss and the feasibility, fidelity, and sustainability of implementing the intervention in low-income and underserved people living with obesity in Louisiana. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will an evidence-based multi-level obesity intervention (called LA-CEAL CONNECT) in adults living with obesity in low-income and underserved communities achieve weight loss at 6 months compared to enhanced usual care? * Will LA-CEAL CONNECT sustain weight loss at 12 months? * Will LA-CEAL CONNECT improve waist circumference, diet quality, physical activity, quality of life, and blood pressure at 6 and 12 months? * Will LA-CEAL CONNECT be feasible to implement in adults living with obesity in low-income and underserved communities? Researchers will compare the LA-CEAL CONNECT multilevel weight loss intervention to enhanced usual care to evaluate if LA-CEAL CONNECT leads to greater weight loss and greater changes in waist circumference, diet, physical activity, quality of life, and blood pressure than enhanced usual care. Participants in both arms will: * Receive health literacy-tailored educational materials and resources for weight loss * Visit the clinic site for baseline, 6-month and 12-month study visits to collect clinical and survey measurements Participants in the CONNECT intervention arm will also: * receive health coaching * self-monitor weight and physical activity using digital technologies * attend group meetings to identify and increase utilization of community health and wellness resources
This study is being done to assess the efficacy of a saliva- based biomarker to predict response to semaglutide for the treatment of obesity.
This is a single center randomized double blind controlled study of patients (BMI\> 30 kg/m2) with obesity and Atrial Fibrillation (AFIB) randomized to Tirzepatide vs. placebo. It is expected that the significant weight loss with Tirzepatide will result in improved control, management, symptom severity, and burden of AFIB at 12 months.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the real-world effects of selected obesity medications in adults undergoing medical weight management. The main outcomes of interest are changes in body composition, routine clinical markers, muscular performance, and nutritional intake over the course of treatment. Additionally, the influence of lifestyle factors on changes in these outcome variables will be examined. Participants beginning treatment with selected obesity medications will undergo periodic body composition and muscular performance testing, as well as complete online surveys about their nutritional intake and physical activity and exercise participation. Additionally, routinely collected clinical information will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to assess obese patients with knee arthritis and determine the non-inferiority of a low dose steroid treatment vs. standard dose steroid treatment for two knee outcome measures: pain and function.
This study will look at how well CagriSema helps people with obesity lose weight compared to a "dummy medicine". CagriSema is a new medicine developed by Novo Nordisk. CagriSema cannot yet be prescribed by doctors. The study has two parts: First part is called the main phase and will last for 2 years, and second part is called the extension phase and will last for 1 year. In the main phase participants will either get CagriSema or "dummy medicine". Which treatment participants get is decided by chance and is not known by participants or the study doctor. In the extension phase participants will get either CagriSema or slowly reduce participants dose of CagriSema if participants had CagriSema in the main phase. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance and is not known by participants or the study doctor in both phases. If participants had "dummy medicine" in the main phase, participants will get CagriSema in the extension phase. Like all medicines, the study medicine may have side effects.
The goal of this study is to test which colonoscope works best in people who are above a certain body mass index. Currently, both pediatric and adult colonoscopes are accepted as standard treatments in colonoscopies. Doctors pick which one to use based on personal preference and what is available.
