Precision Obesity Medicine: Genetic Prediction of Response to GLP-1/GIP Agonists.

Registered observational trial (recruiting). Obesity is a chronic multifactorial disease with a strong genetic component. Although glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists such as semaglutide and dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)/GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as tirzepatide, are highly effective treatments for obesity, substantial inter-individual variability in weight loss response remains. Genetic factors may contribute to these differences in treatment outcomes. The aim of this prospective cohort study is to investigate whether a Genetic Risk Score (GRS) and s

Tirzepatide-Based Prehabilitation Before Elective Ventral and Incisional Hernia Repair in Patients With Obesity

Registered observational trial (completed). This study evaluated whether a 16-week weight-loss program using tirzepatide before elective ventral and incisional hernia surgery could improve surgical readiness and outcomes in patients with obesity. In this retrospective multicenter study, 109 patients entered the program, and 91 completed treatment and underwent surgery. Participants achieved an average weight loss of 13.8%, and all patients who completed the program reached the target weight required for surgery. Compared with a control group of obese patients who underwent hernia repair withou

Estimating the Impact of Obesity Medications on Clinical and Economic Outcomes

Registered observational trial (enrolling by invitation). The goal of this observational study is to identify the impact of incretin-based obesity medications (e.g., GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP) on health and economic outcomes among adults who get their health insurance through their employers. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is obesity medication usage is associated with reduced body mass index (BMI) and weight? 2. Is obesity medication usage is associated with reduced utilization of emergency department and inpatient care or obesity-related conditions over time? 3. Is obesity medication

GLP-1 Therapy After Bariatric Surgery in Chinese Patients With Obesity

Registered N/A interventional trial (recruiting). Obese patients exhibit considerable heterogeneity and complex comorbidities, making long-term effective management challenging with monotherapy. While bariatric surgery remains the most effective weight-loss intervention, postoperative weight regain and metabolic deterioration remain significant concerns. glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) offer distinct advantages for weight loss and metabolic control, and their combination with surgery may produce synergistic effects. This study investigates the efficacy and safety of bariatr

Tirzepatide on Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Catheter Ablation in Patients With Obesity and HFpEF

Registered Phase 4 interventional trial (not yet recruiting). This multicenter, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial evaluates whether weekly subcutaneous tirzepatide for 12 months reduces atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after catheter ablation in adults with obesity and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HFpEF is diagnosed by direct intraprocedural measurement of mean left atrial pressure (mLAP ≥ 15 mmHg at rest) during the ablation procedure, providing a hemodynamically anchored, homogeneous study population free from the diagnostic ambiguities of N-termina

Objective: To learn how the brains of people with AUD respond to a GLP-1 drug. Eligibility: People aged 21 to 65 years with AUD who are non-treatment seeking. They must be enrolled in protocol 14-AA-0181. Healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: This s

Tirzepatide to Reduce rEcurrence And Burden After Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Registered N/A interventional trial (not yet recruiting). The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether tirzepatide can reduce atrial fibrillation (AF) burden after catheter ablation in overweight or obese patients with persistent AF. It will also evaluate the effects of tirzepatide on body weight, metabolic risk factors, and clinical outcomes, as well as its safety and tolerability in this population. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does peri-procedural treatment with tirzepatide reduce AF burden at 3 months after de novo catheter ablation, as measured by 7-day continuo

A Study of Weight Loss Intervention With Tirzepatide and Progestin Intrauterine Device to Treat Endometrial Hyperplasia and Grade 1 Endometrial Cancer

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (not yet recruiting). This phase II trial studies whether adding tirzepatide injections to a levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) improves pathologic response (absence of cancer cells in tissue samples after treatment) in women with endometrial atypical hyperplasia/endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (AH/EIN) or grade 1 endometrial cancer who are overweight or obese. Endometrial cancer occurrence has continued to rise in the United States. Over half of endometrial cancer cases are thought to be attributable to being overweight and obese, and th

A Study to Estimate Early Clinical Efficacy Signals of GLP-1 Agonist Administration in Conjunction With Levonorgestrel Intrauterine Device in Obese Patients With Endometrioid Intraepithelial Neoplasia

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (recruiting). This study will explore the use of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) used concurrently with levonorgestrel intrauterine device in patients with poor surgical candidacy for a hysterectomy or patients who are pursuing fertility sparing. GLP-1RA are a class of medications that mimic the natural hormone glucagon-like peptide-1. These medications trigger the pancreas to release insulin which can help lower blood sugar levels and delay gastric emptying. The recent FDA approval of GLP-1RAs has changed the landscape for pharmacothe
