Summary

This study tests a virtual weight management program for 60 adults with obesity and advanced kidney disease who want to lose weight to become eligible for a kidney transplant. Participants either join the program (which includes coaching and a weight-loss medication called semaglutide) or continue their usual care. The main goal is to see if this approach is practical for a larger trial.
