Active clinical trials for "Obesity"

This trial is conducted in the United States of America. The aim of the trial is to investigate Safety, Tolerability, PK and PD for Multiple Doses of NNC9204-0530 in Male and Female Subjects being overweight or with obesity

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of single anastomoses sleeve jejunal bypass as a treatment for morbid obesity

Abdominal obesity and its metabolic consequences, particularly type 2 diabetes, require personalized nutritional monitoring. Today, it is not always possible to provide patients with appropriate care to both, the diet plan, physical activity, stress and sleep management. Emerging data have shown the effectiveness of remote support (e- coaching), in order to increase the level of physical activity and reducing calorie intake which causes weight loss similar to that obtained during a face to face consultation. Compared to a food survey conducted by a dietician, the dietary survey MXS computer software showed similar results on the collection of nutritional data. Furthermore, users preferred this method of remote collection compared to direct interview. The investigators recently developed a tool for e-coaching combining this computerized dietary survey and education and support modules on diet and physical activity (MXS- health program) for the patients. The aim of the investigators' study is to compare efficacy of this new software vs usual care.

The prevalence of overweight and obesity is getting more and more important in developed as well as in emerging countries. It can be defined according to the degree of fat storage by measurement of fat mass. No clinical studies have been conducted so far for that intended use on KiOnutrime®-Cs, a fungal chitosan from the mycelium of non-genetically modified Aspergillus niger. KiOnutrime®-Cs has been recognized as substantially equivalent to animal chitosan. The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if KiOnutrime®-Cs-containing medical device, which is a CE-marked medical device manufactured by KitoZyme, has an effect on body weight reduction after 3 months of intake in overweight and obese men and women. Furthermore, effects on anthropometric measurements, body fat mass percentage, serum lipids and safety parameters will be investigated.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Topiramate on the decrease of Body Mass Index compared to placebo at 9 months.

The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a community and home-based preschool obesity intervention for families enrolled in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).

In this study to planned to research the efficacy of low-flow anesthesia on patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy due to morbid obesity on respiratory functions after surgery by examining FEV1 and FVC values and FEV1/FVC ratio.

Gut hormones, such as PYY and ghrelin, are associated with appetite control and obesity. Protein is thought to be the most satieting nutrient and could affect production of several gut hormones. This study's objective is to find the effect of breakfast with different protein composition on PYY, ghrelin, and ad libitum intake four hours after breakfast. The research methodology was used a clinical trial with 22 obese women participants. Subjects were given three types of breakfast: low protein consumption (12.4% protein), medium protein (23.5% protein), and high protein (40,6% protein). PYY and ghrelin level were measured at 0, 15, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after breakfast. Ad libitum meal was given four hours after breakfast and measured after.

Mexico occupies the first place worldwide in childhood obesity. Its urban and indigenous communities present different levels of westernization which have triggered different epidemiological diseases. This study aims to treat and prevent obesity and related diseases. A school-based multi-component intervention program is developed in three ethnic groups with varying levels of westernization: Mestizos, Seris and Yaquis. Measurements are obtained to evaluate obesity, cardiovascular, diabetes risk, hepatic and renal function, and physical fitness. The intervention consists on Physical Activity (PA), Health Education (HE) and Nutrition (NP) programs carried out in six urban (Mestizo ethnic group) and indigenous schools (Seri and Yaqui ethnic groups). A total of 800 participants were part of the PA and HE programs (Education Arm), and 117 of them were also part of the NP program (Nutrition Arm). Measurement differences, after and before treatments are used to assess the intervention effect by age, sex, ethnicity, nutritional status, and treatments. Expanded access is not applicable to this study. The Government's Secretary of Education does not allow developing a plan to share individual data of participants.

This study will assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of BMS-963272 in obese but otherwise healthy participants.
