Genetic and Lifestyle Factors in Weight Management
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study explores how genetics, gut bacteria, and behaviors influence weight gain and obesity. Researchers will examine these factors in adults who are overweight or obese to better understand what drives weight changes.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two ways to manage weight: taking a GLP-1 medication (like tirzepatide or semaglutide) versus making lifestyle changes without medication. It will help researchers learn which approach works best for people with overweight or obesity.
This study tests if tirzepatide helps people with obesity lose weight, whether or not they have type 2 diabetes. It aims to see how safe and effective the drug is.
This Phase 2 study tests whether tirzepatide can improve how your body handles fat (especially in people with overweight or obesity) and reduce fat-related “lipotoxicity.” It may help with body fat function and related health markers, but you must meet specific health and medication rules.
This study looks for traits (like health measurements or medical factors) that can help predict who will successfully lose weight and keep it off. It may help researchers personalize weight-loss plans in the future.
This study tests a medication called tirzepatide (a once-weekly injection) to help teenagers with obesity and related health conditions lose weight. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for this age group.
This clinical trial tests new treatments for adults who are overweight or have obesity. The goal is to help people lose weight and improve their health.
