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.
The recent introduction of the new generation of anti-obesity medications (AOMs) will change the future of obesity treatment. These highly effective medications, such as high-dose semaglutide and tirzepatide, are hormone analogues that augment the incretin function and exert multiple physiological effects by activating glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and/or glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) distributed in various organs. These medications provide an average of 15-22% weight reduction in one-year trials, which had not been seen in the past with medical therapy. While the literature suggests that bariatric surgery is superior to these new highly effective medications, there is no head-to-head comparison between the most common bariatric operations (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass \[RYGB\] and sleeve gastrectomy \[SG\]) with semaglutide (once weekly) and tirzepatide (once weekly). The goal of this Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) is to compare these effective therapies in patients with severe obesity to provide the best evidence to inform clinical decisions in treating patients with obesity.
Efficacy and Safety of Bariatric Surgery, Semaglutide Once Weekly, and Tirzepatide Once Weekly in Patients with Obesity
