This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Summary

This study tests a weight-loss program delivered via telehealth, specifically designed for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). The program is adapted from the Diabetes Prevention Program and addresses unique needs of TBI patients. Researchers aim to see if the program helps participants lose weight and improve health markers like blood sugar and cholesterol. The trial includes 85 adults with moderate to severe TBI who are overweight or obese.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Telehealth-delivered Group Lifestyle Balance for people with TBI (tGLB-TBI) - a behavioral weight-loss program
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a scalable, accessible weight-loss program tailored for people with traumatic brain injury, helping them lose weight and improve overall health.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (85 participants) testing a behavioral intervention, so results may not apply to everyone. Weight loss can be challenging, and the program may not work for all individuals.

Started

May 2023

Expected to finish

Aug 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
