Low Energy Availability and Pituitary Function (LEAP Study) (LEAP)
April 10, 2023 updated by: University of Colorado, Denver
A Randomized Cross-over Study of Low Energy Availability on Pituitary Function in Women
The purpose of this study is to learn more about reproductive hormones and if they change in response to 5-days eating an individualized, standardized diet at two levels: energy balance and low energy intake.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Energy balanced metabolic diet (5-days)
45 kcals/kg of fat free mass [FFM]/day; 28% fat, 15% protein, 57% carbohydrate
|
Over 5-days, all food will be provided from the metabolic kitchen and participants will be instructed to eat all of the food provided each day and only the food provided each day.
|
Experimental: Low energy availability metabolic diet (5-days)
20 kcal/kg of FFM/day; 28% fat, 15% protein, 57% carbohydrate
|
Over 5-days, all food will be provided from the metabolic kitchen and participants will be instructed to eat all of the food provided each day and only the food provided each day.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from baseline in stimulated pituitary function, as measured by Luteinizing hormone (LH) area under the curve (AUC) over two hours following pituitary stimulation with a physiologic bolus intravenous dose of gonadorelin acetate
Time Frame: Baseline, ~4-weeks, ~8-weeks (visits timed to to days 1-5 of the menstrual cycle)
|
Within-participant changes in response to both conditions will be measured, with lower LH AUC indicating a blunted pituitary response to stimulation.
|
Baseline, ~4-weeks, ~8-weeks (visits timed to to days 1-5 of the menstrual cycle)
