Maridebart Cafraglutide in Heart Failure With Preserved or Mildly Reduced Ejection Fraction and Obesity

Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction · Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced Ejection Fraction · Obesity

This trial will examine if maridebart cafraglutide as an adjunct to standard of care will lead to a reduction in heart failure (HF) events such as HF hospitalizations and urgent HF visits, cardiovascular (CV) deaths and improvement in HF symptoms in participants with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) who are obese. This is a phase 3, global, multicenter, 2-part trial with a double-blind period and an open-label extension (OLE).

Sympathetic Mechanisms in Obesity-Crossover Design

Obesity · Hypertension

We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will be determined using computer-generated randomization. Patients will be blinded as to which treatment they are receiving on each day. An investigator blinded to the treatment assignment will perform the analysis of the data.

Evaluation of the Tolerability of Cagrilintide in Participants Not Tolerating GLP-1-RA Therapies Due to Gastrointestinal Adverse Events

Obesity · Overweight

The purpose of this clinical study is to look at the safety of the medicine Cagrilintide when compared to placebo in people who do not tolerate marketed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) therapies and who live with overweight or obesity. Participants will get either Cagrilintide (the treatment being tested) or Placebo (a treatment that has no active medicine in it). Which treatment participant will get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 8 months.

Mirikizumab Administered at the Same Time as Tirzepatide in Adult Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis and Obesity or Overweight: Phase 3b Study

Ulcerative Colitis · Obesity or Overweight

The main purpose of this study is to show whether in these individuals, treatment with both mirikizumab and tirzepatide, compared with treatment with mirikizumab and placebo, leads to decrease or disappearance of UC symptoms, and loss of at least one-tenth of the overall body weight. Participation in this study will last up to 61 weeks, including 52 weeks of treatment.

Tirzepatide in PWS, HO and GNSO

Prader-Willi Syndrome · Hypothalamic Obesity · Obesity/Therapy

This research study is comparing the effectiveness of a weight loss medication called Tirzepatide in young adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome and/or hypothalamic obesity, as compared to young adults with obesity that is unrelated to a genetic syndrome or underlying medical cause. These groups will be given medication for 1 year to see how weight and other health factors are effected by the medication.

The Effect of SGLT2 Inhibition on Adipose Inflammation and Endothelial Function

Obesity · Metabolic Syndrome

Obesity is associated with increased cardiometabolic disease risk due, in part, to heightened chronic inflammation arising from adipose tissue. There are no current targeted therapies to prevent or reverse the chronic inflammation of obesity, and a better understanding of these inflammatory pathways in humans is key to future therapeutic interventions. This trial will determine both the anti-inflammatory potential of the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin, and the contribution of adipose inflammation to surrogate measures of cardiovascular disease in a randomized controlled trial of obese patients.

Atomoxetine in Melanocortin Obesity Syndrome

Melanocortin Obesity Syndrome · MCOS

This is a phase 2 randomized placebo-controlled crossover trial to determine the safety and efficacy of atomoxetine for treating obesity caused by loss-of-function variants in the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R), the most common cause of genetic obesity disorders. Atomoxetine was selected for this pilot trial because it has been shown to increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) within the central nervous system and in peripheral circulation. Targeting BDNF is a specific strategy for treating MC4R abnormalities because BDNF functions as a downstream mediator of MC4R signaling.

The Dose Trial: Dose Intensity of Behavioral Interventions for Childhood Obesity

Childhood Obesity

The research team is recruiting 900 children between the ages 5-17 with obesity from Tennessee and Louisiana. The team is assigning children and their caregivers by chance to one of five groups. In the first group, 300 children and their caregivers receive 26 hours of IBT. In the second group, 300 children and their caregivers receive 13 hours of IBT. The remaining three groups of 100 children and their caregivers receive 16, 19, or 22 hours of IBT. Children's healthcare providers, nutritionists, and social workers are providing IBT to each of the groups over six months. At the start of the study and again after one year, the research team is measuring the children's body mass index, or BMI. BMI is a measure of a person's body fat based on their height and weight. The team is also looking at the children's: * Diet * Exercise * Sleep * Media use * Quality of life

Gut Microbiota in Metabolic Surgery

Bariatric Surgery Candidate · Cardiovascular Diseases · Type 2 Diabetes

Metabolic surgery is an emerging option to treat obesity-related metabolic diseases (e.g., type 2 diabetes) and prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). Metabolic surgery can profoundly alter the gut microbiota; meanwhile, gut microbiota may affect surgical outcomes. Longitudinal studies that examined pre- to post-surgery changes in gut microbiota and its relation to cardiometabolic health after surgery are limited. Furthermore, few studies have included African Americans, a population with high rates of cardiometabolic diseases. The investigators aim to fill these research gaps by establishing a longitudinal, observational study of metabolic surgery patients and applying multi-omics to identify stool, blood, and/or tissue microbial features related to post-surgery cardiometabolic outcomes. In the current study, the investigators plan to enroll up to 300 patients who undergo metabolic surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and follow them for up to 10 years after surgery. Fasting blood and stool samples will be collected at pre-surgery and 3-month, 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year post-surgery clinical visits. Tissue samples (e.g., biopsies of the liver and adipose and remnants of the stomach) will be collected during operation. Meanwhile, participants will complete a REDCap survey at baseline and 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year post-surgery. Participants' electronic medical records will be used to obtain additional information and facilitate long-term follow-up. The investigators will evaluate pre- to post-surgery changes in the fecal microbiome and fecal and blood levels of metabolites and proteins and the associations of microbiome, metabolites, and proteins with cardiometabolic improvements after surgery. This study will advance our understanding of the role of gut microbiota in metabolic surgery, which may translate into novel approaches to identify and treat obese patients for better cardiometabolic health.
