Genetic score to predict diet response in obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a genetic score can predict how well people with obesity respond to a low-calorie, high-protein diet. It aims to personalize diet plans to improve weight loss and health outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 aims to improve diagnosis and treatment planning for people with severe obesity—especially when it may be related to a genetic cause or a brain condition affecting appetite. You may be invited if your case includes clues from your history or symptoms, and you can consent to genetic testing discussions as part of usual care.
This study looks at how your brain and body respond to food based on your weight. You'll eat a standard meal and have brain scans (MRI) to see how your brain reacts.
This study uses nutrition information and artificial intelligence to better understand diet patterns in adults with obesity and in adults with normal weight. Your results may help researchers design better nutrition guidance for people with obesity and related health risks.
This trial looks at how weight loss relates to a specific gene difference (CLOCK 3111T/C). You may be eligible if you’re in a certain age and body-mass range and don’t have conditions or medicines that could affect weight or metabolism.
This study looks at how genes may contribute to obesity in young people living in East China. If you meet the weight and background criteria and can consent, you may be able to help researchers learn more and improve care for obesity.
