This watch-and-measure (no experimental treatment required) study will compare weight loss over two years in adults receiving GLP-1 receptor agonist medications with weight loss in adults who previously underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, an operation that reduces the size of the stomach. Adults starting GLP-1 medications as part of their usual care will be followed for 24 months.

Phase 3: testing Berobenatide for Obesity

The purpose of this clinical study is to learn about the safety and effects of berobenatide (PF-08653944) for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in adults with overweight or obesity with and without type 2 diabetes. The study will last 52 weeks and compare the effects of berobenatide compared to dummy treatment (placebo) on knee pain, physical function, and body weight.

Not a traditional drug phase: Telerehabilitation for Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by typical symptoms of heart failure, structural and functional cardiac abnormalities, and elevated serum levels of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), despite preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Typical symptoms of HFpEF include reduced exercise tolerance, exertional dyspnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, and orthopnea.

Not a traditional drug phase: Continuous glucose monitoring for Type 2 Diabetes

The aim of the study is to assess the influence of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems on metabolic control and quality of life in people with type 2 diabetes and overweight/obesity who are not treated with insulin. Additionally, the study aims to assess the association between metabolic control of diabetes and markers of early cardiovascular disease, taking into account the impact of CGM use.

Not a traditional drug phase: testing Semaglutide for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

This prospective watch-and-measure (no experimental treatment required) study aims to evaluate ocular structural and microvascular changes in adults with obesity who are receiving semaglutide or tirzepatide as part of routine clinical care. Participants with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus will be included.

Not a traditional drug phase: Air filtration systems without filters (sham) for Cardiovascular (CV) Risk

Obesity and exposure to fine particulate matter (particles of aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 µm, PM2.5) air pollution are established risk factors for cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. This proposed pilot project seeks to assess interactions between PM2.5 exposure, obesity, CV health, and dietary antioxidant in subjects with obesity.

The Impact of Incretins on Fat-free Mass, Muscle Strength and Functional Capacity

The goal of this watch-and-measure (no experimental treatment required) study is to learn how treatment with incretins, such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, affects muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical function in people with overweight or obesity. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * What is the composition of weight loss during incretin treatment?

FAQ: Obesity trials

How do I find recruiting Obesity clinical trials?

This hub lists 103 recruiting Obesity studies from a ClinicalTrials.gov snapshot, rewritten in plain English. Each card links to its NCT record. You can also search the official registry for “obesity” at https://clinicaltrials.gov/search?cond=obesity.

What does a Obesity trial page on PlainTrials include?

A phase explainer, a plain-English summary grounded in the brief summary, inclusion/exclusion extracted from the public eligibility block, sponsor name, and any central contact the sponsor published. It is not a match to a trial.

Where are Obesity studies located in this snapshot?

Sites that appear on these records include Buenos Aires, Argentina; Houston, Texas; Seoul, South Korea; San Antonio, Texas; Shanghai, China. A city on a record is not a guarantee that the site is taking new patients this week — call the NCT contact.

Can PlainTrials tell me if I qualify for a Obesity study?

No. Eligibility is decided by the study team using the protocol, labs, and consent. Our “who it is for” list is a readable extract of public inclusion text only.
