RECRUITING

Reversal of Lipid-Induced Insulin Resistance

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this study is to examine whether weight reduction decreases intramyocellular (IMCL) and hepatic lipid content, and improves insulin sensitivity of muscle and fat tissue in people who are insulin resistant and have a family history of type 2 diabetes. Hepatic mitochondrial oxidation will be assesses using a 3 hour triple tracer study (D7 glucose, 3-13C lactate and 13C4 beta-hydroxybutyrate).
