Cognitive and Behavioral Approaches to Reduce Binge Eating and Excess Weight in Adolescents (Online) (CARE2)

27 oktober 2026 uppdaterad av: Janet Lydecker, Indiana University

Cognitive and Behavioral Approaches to Reduce Binge Eating and Excess Weight in Adolescents (CARE2)

This study will compare a psychological treatment (cognitive-behavioral therapy; CBT-BED) and a lifestyle beahvioral obesity intervention (LBOI) for adolescents who experience binge eating and have overweight or obesity. These treatments will be compared to each other and to a control condition that involves self-monitoring eating and mood using an "app". Participants can be located in most states in the United States. All participation occurs remotely by telehealth. The goal is to learn which approach works best for reducing binge eating and excess weight in this age group.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

Binge eating is the most prevalent eating disorder but has the lowest rate (<4%) of receiving eating disorder treatment. Binge eating often begins in adolescence and is related to obesity, physical and mental health problems, and psychological distress. Yet, there are virtually no established treatments, and no clear standard of care, for adolescents with binge eating. Evidence-based treatments exist for adults, including psychological treatments (e.g., CBT-BED) and lifestyle behavioral obesity intervention (LBOI), but how well these treatments work for adolescents remains largely unknown. LBOI is an effective treatment for adolescent obesity, but has only been tested as additional outcomes (not the initial goal) for binge eating. There is an urgent need for research to establish the efficacy of interventions for adolescents with binge eating to improve adolescents' health and quality of life. This study will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which adolescents are randomized to Psychological Treatment (cognitive behavioral therapy for binge eating, or CBT-BED), Behavioral Treatment (lifestyle health behavioral treatment for obesity, or LBOI), or Active Control. In this study, we will compare both CBT-BED and LBOI to each other and to an Active Control. Active Control is daily self-monitoring (emotions, eating, exercise) on an "app", mimicking real-world self-help, followed by choice of CBT-BED or LBOI.

Experimentell: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive-behavioral therapy for binge-eating disorder (CBT-BED) for adolescents with binge eating and overweight or obesity, delivered remotely by telehealth.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy for binge-eating disorder (CBT-BED) for adolescents with binge eating and overweight or obesity, delivered remotely by telehealth. Sessions target cognitive and emotional drivers of binge eating through coping skills, problem-solving triggers, cognitive restructuring, and executive-function skill training; parent sessions focus on communication and support.

Experimentell: Lifestyle Behavioral Obesity Intervention

Lifestyle behavioral obesity intervention (LBOI) for adolescents with binge eating and overweight or obesity, delivered remotely by telehealth.

Lifestyle behavioral obesity intervention (LBOI) for adolescents with binge eating and overweight or obesity, delivered remotely by telehealth. Sessions provide nutrition and physical-activity prescriptions to create a modest calorie deficit and sustainable lifestyle habits and problem-solve nonadherence; parent sessions focus on the home food environment.
