RECRUITING

Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist (GLP-1 RA) and Diet in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Patients

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 use diet and an injectable medication called tirzepatide (Zepbound) glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GIP-GLP-1 RA) medication as adjunctive therapy (another treatment used together with the primary treatment) for Crohn's disease patients with mild disease who are on stable doses of biologic medication (infliximab or adalimumab) and who have a body mass index (BMI) of at least 27.

Official Title

A Randomized Clinical Trial to Determine the Effect of Dual Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP)/GLP-1 Receptor Agonist-mediated Weight Loss and Diet on Crohn's Disease Clinical Response: a Pilot Study
