Breath Acetone During Tirzepatide Treatment and Resistance Training in Adults With Obesity (RESIST-EXHALE)

5 novembre 2026 mis à jour par: Technical University of Munich

Exhaled Breath Analysis for the Prediction of Treatment Response During Tirzepatide Therapy and Resistance Training in Adults With Obesity - An Ancillary Study to the RESIST Trial

This study is an ancillary study to the RESIST trial, in which adults with obesity receive the weight-loss medication tirzepatide and are randomly assigned to a structured resistance training program or to usual care for 24 weeks. RESIST-EXHALE measures acetone in exhaled breath, a non-invasive marker of fat burning, at all seven RESIST visits (Week 0 to Week 24). The study investigates how breath acetone changes during treatment, whether this change differs between participants with and without resistance training, and whether breath acetone at the start or early in treatment can predict the individual response to treatment, such as weight loss and preservation of muscle. The measurement takes about 15-20 minutes at the first visit and about 10 minutes at each later visit. No additional visits, interventions or biological samples are part of this ancillary study.

Description détaillée

RESIST-EXHALE is a prospective, observational, monocentric ancillary study conducted at the TUM Klinikum, Munich, Germany. Active participation in the RESIST trial (protocol code RESIST-26-HAL-0150-I; EU CT number 2026-526200-69-00) is a prerequisite for enrolment. RESIST is a randomized, controlled, open-label Phase IV trial evaluating a structured resistance training program versus usual care in 150 adults with obesity treated with tirzepatide over 24 weeks.

RESIST-EXHALE involves no investigational medicinal product, no intervention and no randomization. Assignment to resistance training or usual care occurs exclusively within the RESIST trial. Breath acetone concentration is measured under standardized fasting conditions (at least 8 hours) at all RESIST visits (V1, Week 0; V2-V6, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20; V7, Week 24) using a handheld point-of-care breath acetone analyzer (Nutrion™, Alivion AG) with volume-controlled, end-tidal breath sampling. The device is used for research purposes only and does not inform clinical decisions. A short questionnaire on known confounders of breath acetone is completed before each measurement.

The primary endpoint is the change in breath acetone from V1 to V7, compared between arms. All analyses are exploratory and hypothesis-generating; no formal sample size calculation or multiplicity adjustment is performed.

La description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Any anatomical or functional condition preventing breath sampling through a mouthpiece (e.g., tracheostomy, laryngectomy, severe facial deformity), such that a valid end-tidal breath sample cannot be obtained

Key eligibility criteria of the RESIST trial (for context only; full criteria see RESIST protocol RESIST-26-HAL-0150-I):

  • Age 18-60 years
  • Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²)

Cohortes et interventions

Groupe / Cohorte
Intervention / Traitement
Resistance training + tirzepatide

RESIST participants randomized to the structured resistance training arm of the RESIST trial, receiving tirzepatide and individualized diet and physical activity counselling. Assignment occurs within RESIST, not within this ancillary study.
Médicament: Tirzepatide

Once-weekly subcutaneous injection over 24 weeks, starting at 2.5 mg/week and increased by 2.5 mg every 4 weeks as tolerated up to a maximum of 10 mg/week, in accordance with the SmPC. Administered within the RESIST trial (not part of this ancillary study).

Comportemental: Structured resistance training

Machine-based structured resistance training over 24 weeks, delivered within the RESIST trial (not part of this ancillary study). Progressive program with an acclimation phase (weeks 1-4) and a target phase (weeks 5-24; 8-12 repetitions at approx. 70-75% 1-RM, with additional eccentric overload from week 9). Sessions are intended to be fully supervised during the first 6 weeks whenever feasible, thereafter at least one supervised session after each interim visit; remaining sessions at the trial site or at partner fitness facilities.
Usual care + tirzepatide

RESIST participants randomized to the usual care arm of the RESIST trial, receiving tirzepatide and individualized diet and physical activity counselling. Assignment occurs within RESIST, not within this ancillary study.
Médicament: Tirzepatide

Once-weekly subcutaneous injection over 24 weeks, starting at 2.5 mg/week and increased by 2.5 mg every 4 weeks as tolerated up to a maximum of 10 mg/week, in accordance with the SmPC. Administered within the RESIST trial (not part of this ancillary study).
