Detailní popis
OBESIAL is a prospective pragmatic study involving 300 adults with obesity recruited from healthcare facilities in Algeria and followed for 18 months. The primary comparison evaluates outcomes between participants receiving structured multidisciplinary care (G1, n=150) and those receiving non-structured usual care (G2, n=150). The structured pathway includes coordinated medical follow-up, personalised nutritional intervention, adapted physical activity, therapeutic education, and multidisciplinary support.
Within the structured care group, eligible participants will undergo a nested randomised comparison between G1a (lifestyle intervention plus GLP-1 receptor agonist therapy) and G1b (lifestyle intervention alone) to assess the additional effect of GLP-1 receptor agonist treatment.
The primary outcome is the proportion of participants achieving clinically meaningful weight loss (≥5% of initial body weight) at 18 months. Secondary outcomes include changes in body composition, metabolic parameters, treatment response, adherence, and obesity-related outcomes. Longitudinal analyses will be performed using mixed-effects models, while multivariable approaches will explore factors associated with treatment response.
The findings of the OBESIAL study are expected to provide evidence to support the development and optimisation of structured multidisciplinary obesity care pathways in Algeria and may offer relevant insights for other African healthcare systems.

Experimentální: G1a: Structured Obesity Care + Semaglutide
Participants assigned to G1 will initially receive the structured obesity care pathway (OBESIAL) for 18 months.
This structured multidisciplinary care includes coordinated medical follow-up, individualized nutritional management adapted to the sociocultural context, a personalized physical activity program, and psychological support according to individual needs.
At month 6, the clinical course is reviewed during a multidisciplinary meeting.
Bariatric surgery constitutes a therapeutic pathway within the structured care group and not a separate study arm based on clinical indication and patient's wishes.
Among participants remaining eligible for pharmacological intervention, an embedded, independent and centralized 1:1 randomization is performed to assign participants to G1a or G1b.
The semaglutide intervention is therefore an adjunct to, and not a replacement for, the structured nutritional, physical activity and behavioural interventions provided within the OBESIAL care pathway.
|
Semaglutide (Wegovy®) will be administered as a subcutaneous injection once weekly, with gradual dose escalation according to the recommended dosing schedule for the molecule, up to a target maintenance dose of 2.4 mg once weekly, for 12 months.
Semaglutide will be initiated as an adjunct to the structured OBESIAL obesity care pathway in eligible participants randomized to G1a, following a second written informed consent specifically for the pharmacological intervention.
Structured care group (G1): Only participants in G1 will undergo the structured care pathway over 18 months.

Aktivní komparátor: G1b : Structured care group / lifestyle intervention alone
Participants assigned to G1 initially receive the structured obesity care pathway (OBESIAL) for 18 months, including coordinated medical follow-up, individualized nutritional management adapted to the sociocultural context, a personalized physical activity program, and psychological support according to individual needs.
The structured multidisciplinary assessment involves general practitioners, endocrinologists-diabetologists, dietitians, psychologists and psychiatrists, with referral to organ specialists according to obesity-related comorbidities, including cardiology, pulmonology, gastroenterology, rheumatology and stomatology.
Adapted physical activity interventions are supervised by sports medicine physicians or physiotherapists, with functional capacity assessment performed by rehabilitation specialists.
Participants randomized to G1b continue the structured obesity care pathway without initiation of pharmacological treatment with semaglutide as part of the study intervention.

Aktivní komparátor: G2: Non-structured care group
Participants in G2 receive usual, non-structured obesity care delivered independently of the OBESIAL structured care pathway and outside the study coordinating structure. Care is provided in comparable healthcare structures in order to reflect usual clinical practice while limiting differences related to the type or level of healthcare facility. The content of care is not standardized or imposed by the OBESIAL protocol and may vary according to local clinical practices, healthcare professionals' habits, available resources, treatment availability, and therapeutic options accessible within the participating healthcare structures The choice, combination, timing and intensity of these therapeutic options are not determined by the OBESIAL study team. Participants therefore remain under the usual care practices of their healthcare structure throughout the study follow-up, without receiving the standardized multidisciplinary structured care pathway implemented in G1. |
The content of care is not standardized or imposed by the OBESIAL protocol and may vary according to local clinical practices, healthcare professionals' habits, available resources, treatment availability, and therapeutic options accessible within the participating healthcare structures.
Usual care may include lifestyle and dietary management, physical activity advice or interventions, behavioral support, pharmacological treatment for obesity when clinically indicated and available, including GLP-1 receptor agonist therapy, and other therapeutic options for obesity according to usual clinical practice and individual patient characteristics.
Bariatric surgery may also be considered or performed when clinically indicated according to the usual care pathway of the healthcare structure.
