Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: WMP + Rx
Participants will receive Cleveland Clinic's Integrated Medical WMP with medication for chronic weight management (Rx) for approximately one year.
After discussing with the study doctor, participants will receive one of the following listed 5 drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for long-term weight loss: 1) orlistat, 2) lorcaserin or lorcaserin extended-release, 3) phentermine/topiramate extended-release, 4) naltrexone/bupropion extended-release and 5) liraglutide 3.0 mg.
|
As part of usual care, participants will: 1) Discuss and choose one of three diet options: protein-sparing modified fast, Mediterranean, or meal replacement.
2) Be referred to a nutritionist appointment.
3) Initiate a series of twelve monthly study visits in the context of shared medical appointments (SMAs) covering nutrition, physical activity, appetite control, sleep issues, and anxiety/depression/stress. 4) Be referred to an exercise physiologist for a personalized physical activity program.
5) If assessed relevant by the study clinician, be referred to a mental health specialist and/or sleep clinic.
Following listed 5 drugs will be administered as prescribed by the study doctor: 1) Orlistat (Xenical® pills, per os [p.o.; by mouth]). 2) Lorcaserin or lorcaserin extended-release (Belviq®/Belviq XR® pills, p.o.). 3) Phentermine/topiramate extended-release (Qsymia® pills, p.o.). 4) Naltrexone/bupropion extended-release (Contrave® pills, p.o.). 5) Liraglutide 3.0 mg (Saxenda® injections, subcutaneously [under the skin]). |

Change in 'At-Work Productivity Loss Index' as Measured by Work Limitations Questionnaire Self-administered Short-Form (WLQ-8)
Time Frame: Month 0, month 12
|
The WLQ-8 questionnaire assesses the degree to which participants have difficulty related to time management, physical tasks, mental/interpersonal tasks, and output tasks due to their physical and/or emotional health.
The WLQ-8 produces subscale scores as well as an index of overall at-work productivity loss.
WLQ-8 outcomes are expressed as proportion time with difficulty, with higher scores indicating greater limitations, i.e., worse outcomes.
The score ranges from 1 to 5 where '1' represents none of the time and, '5' represents all of the time.
Change in 'At-Work Productivity Loss Index' from month 0 to month 12 is presented.

Change in 'Absenteeism: Percent Work Time Missed Due to Excess Weight' as Measured by Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire Specific Health Problem V2.0 (WPAI:SHP)
Time Frame: Month 0, month 12
|
The WPAI:SHP questionnaire assesses both work productivity through absenteeism (i.e., work time missed), presenteeism (i.e., impairment at work or reduced on-the-job effectiveness), and work productivity loss, as well as daily activity impairment (e.g., work around the house, shopping, exercising, childcare, studying) attributable to excess weight.
Results of WPAI are expressed as a percentage of impairment from 0 to 100, with higher percentages indicating greater impairment and less productivity.
Negative numbers indicate improvement from baseline.
