Preventing Diabetes (PD)

May 24, 2022 updated by: Geisinger Clinic

Preventing Diabetes Among Patients With Pre-Diabetes by Improving Patient-Activation and Enhancing Clinical Decision Support for Weight Management to Lower Costs

The purpose of this project is to improve the quality of weight management care for patients with pre-diabetes and overweight or obesity. Personalized risk profiles, clinical decision support, and patient-centered decision tools for understanding pre-diabetes risk and the likelihood of preventing diabetes with a modest 5-7% weight loss will be developed. This project will offer patients their choice of effective weight management treatment options, each containing the cornerstone of weight management- intensive lifestyle intervention. Patients and PCPs will be better informed and equipped with information that helps them make weight management treatment decisions that work the best for their lifestyle, and each is expected to produce at least 5-7% weight loss over 6 months.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The primary aim of this study was to demonstrate that an increased recruitment rate for weight loss intervention can be achieved within patients that have pre-diabetes by communicating personalized risk of progression to type 2 diabetes, by estimating risk reduction with weight loss, and by offering program choice. Secondary aims included program participation rate, weight loss, and short term decreased diabetes risk.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 89 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Active Comparator: Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist
Behavioral: Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist
Participants received a FitBit Flex and Intensive Lifestyle Intervention coaching via telephone with Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist.
Active Comparator: DPP Group Classes
Behavioral: Diabetes Prevention Program
Modified DPP group classes lead by a Registered Dietitian and Exercise Physiologist.
Active Comparator: Weight Watchers, Reimagined
Behavioral: Weight Watchers, Reimagined
Participants in this group were provided with an online access code to enroll in WW and could choose the format of their choice- group, online, and/or smartphone app.
Active Comparator: Pharmacological Treatment
Behavioral: DPP or RDN Counseling + Medication
Participants met with a weight management specialist to receive weight loss medications, as well as, receiving either the DPP or Registered Dietitian coaching. Medications utilized in this study were Phentermine and Metformin. Metformin was prescribed if the participant could not tolerate Phentermine.
Active Comparator: Bariatric Surgery Evaluation
Other: Bariatric Surgery Evaluation
Participants (BMI > 40) were offered a consultation with the bariatric surgical program that requires lifestyle weight management during the first 6 months. Participants were also able to choose to receive one of the other 4 intervention options in the first six months prior to consideration for bariatric surgery.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure

Time Frame
Demographics
Time Frame: Baseline
Race, ethnicity, education level, marital status, household income, and weight management history.
