Exclusion Criteria:

  • Serious/uncontrolled medical condition at the discretion of the Protocol Chair/designee likely to hinder accurate measurement of weight or any condition for which weight loss is contraindicated or would affect adipokine and inflammatory markers (e.g. active malignancy, end stage renal disease on dialysis, cirrhosis, autoimmune disease, adrenal disease, uncontrolled hypertension, seizure disorder, and history of bariatric surgery)
  • Pregnant or nursing within past 6 months, or plans to become pregnant in the next year

NOTE: An exception to this is that SSRI's and SNRI's are allowed if participant has been on stable doses for at least 3 months (if discontinued, a washout of 2 weeks from prior selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)/Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) use is required).

Concurrent NSAIDs are allowed if use is limited to <3 times per week; chronic NSAIDs are permitted on study only if use has been ≥3 times per week for at least 3 months prior to registration and is expected to continue.

Arm Description

All patients will receive the POWER-remote behavioral weight loss intervention (BWL) and have a behavioral coach for the duration of the 6 month study. During months 1-3, the behavioral coach will call weekly. From months 4-6, the behavioral coach will call monthly. At week 9, those who lose <5%, designated slow responders, will continue BWL and initiate Contrave (SLOW-BWL). The SLOW-BWL arm will receive at least 16 weeks of Contrave [as per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended administration] starting at week 9 and discontinue if ≥5% weight loss is not achieved at month 6.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single arm phase II study designed to determine the effects of pharmacotherapy and a remote behavioral weight loss intervention on weight loss in breast cancer survivors who are overweight or obese, and the impact of successful weight loss on serum biomarkers and gut microbiome.
Detailed Description
The investigators will evaluate the extent to which implementation of a chronic weight loss medication, Contrave® (Naltrexone/Bupropion), is associated with achieving ≥5% weight loss. All patients will receive the POWER-remote behavioral weight loss intervention (BWL) and have a behavioral coach for the duration of the 6 month study. During months 1-3, the behavioral coach will call weekly. From months 4-6, the behavioral coach will call monthly. At week 9, those who lose ≥5%, designated fast responders, will continue with BWL alone (FAST-BWL) while those who lose <5%, designated slow responders, will continue BWL and initiate Contrave (SLOW-BWL). The SLOW-BWL arm will receive at least 16 weeks of Contrave (as per Federal Drug Administration [FDA] recommended administration) starting at week 9 and discontinue if ≥5% weight loss is not achieved at month 6. During month 3, all participants continue to have weekly calls with the behavioral coach and will be asked about symptoms, which may be related to initiation of pharmacotherapy; any symptoms are reported to the PI for further evaluation. In addition to total weight loss, the investigators will evaluate biomarkers associated with obesity, microbiome and cardiometabolic factors.
