Overweight , Obesity · Adults
A study of ALV-100 to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability among participants with overweight or obesity who have previously achieved a body weight reduction of ≥10% while treated with incretin-based therapies.
Obesity · Hypertension
We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will be determined using computer-generated randomization. Patients will be blinded as to which treatment they are receiving on each day. An investigator blinded to the treatment assignment will perform the analysis of the data.

Participants will be randomized to aleniglipron or placebo for a total of 76 weeks of treatment.
Bariatric Surgery Candidate · Cardiovascular Diseases · Type 2 Diabetes
Metabolic surgery is an emerging option to treat obesity-related metabolic diseases (e.g., type 2 diabetes) and prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). Metabolic surgery can profoundly alter the gut microbiota; meanwhile, gut microbiota may affect surgical outcomes. Longitudinal studies that examined pre- to post-surgery changes in gut microbiota and its relation to cardiometabolic health after surgery are limited. Furthermore, few studies have included African Americans, a population with high rates of cardiometabolic diseases. The investigators aim to fill these research gaps by establishing a longitudinal, observational study of metabolic surgery patients and applying multi-omics to identify stool, blood, and/or tissue microbial features related to post-surgery cardiometabolic outcomes. In the current study, the investigators plan to enroll up to 300 patients who undergo metabolic surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and follow them for up to 10 years after surgery. Fasting blood and stool samples will be collected at pre-surgery and 3-month, 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year post-surgery clinical visits. Tissue samples (e.g., biopsies of the liver and adipose and remnants of the stomach) will be collected during operation. Meanwhile, participants will complete a REDCap survey at baseline and 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year post-surgery. Participants' electronic medical records will be used to obtain additional information and facilitate long-term follow-up. The investigators will evaluate pre- to post-surgery changes in the fecal microbiome and fecal and blood levels of metabolites and proteins and the associations of microbiome, metabolites, and proteins with cardiometabolic improvements after surgery. This study will advance our understanding of the role of gut microbiota in metabolic surgery, which may translate into novel approaches to identify and treat obese patients for better cardiometabolic health.
Cachexia

Participation will last about 64 weeks.
Ulcerative Colitis · Obesity or Overweight
The main purpose of this study is to show whether in these individuals, treatment with both mirikizumab and tirzepatide, compared with treatment with mirikizumab and placebo, leads to decrease or disappearance of UC symptoms, and loss of at least one-tenth of the overall body weight. Participation in this study will last up to 61 weeks, including 52 weeks of treatment.
Overweight · Obesity
This study will look at how well CagriSema and cagrilintide help children and adolescents with excess body weight lose weight. The study has 2 parts: main and extension study. In the main study, participants will either get CagriSema (a new study drug), cagrilintide (a new study drug), semaglutide (a drug that doctors can already prescribe to adolescents and adults) or placebo (a placebo looks like the treatment being tested, but doesn't have any active ingredients in it). Which treatment participants will get is decided by chance. Participants who get semaglutide in the main study will not take part in the extension study. If participants take part in the extension study, they will get either CagriSema or cagrilintide in this part of the study. Like all drugs, the study drugs may have side effects. The total time participants will be in the main study is about 1 year and 6 months. If participants take part in the extension study, the total time is about 4 years and 10 months.
Obesity · Type 2 Diabetes
This clinical study is testing how the study medicine CagriSema helps people living with obesity, with or without type 2 diabetes (T2D), lose weight. The purpose of the study is to find out how safe and effective CagriSema is for body weight loss in these participants. Participants will receive either CagriSema or semaglutide, and which treatment participants receive is decided by chance. CagriSema is a new study medicine being tested, while semaglutide is a medicine that doctors can already prescribe. The study will last for about 83 weeks
Childhood Obesity
The research team is recruiting 900 children between the ages 5-17 with obesity from Tennessee and Louisiana. The team is assigning children and their caregivers by chance to one of five groups. In the first group, 300 children and their caregivers receive 26 hours of IBT. In the second group, 300 children and their caregivers receive 13 hours of IBT. The remaining three groups of 100 children and their caregivers receive 16, 19, or 22 hours of IBT. Children's healthcare providers, nutritionists, and social workers are providing IBT to each of the groups over six months. At the start of the study and again after one year, the research team is measuring the children's body mass index, or BMI. BMI is a measure of a person's body fat based on their height and weight. The team is also looking at the children's: * Diet * Exercise * Sleep * Media use * Quality of life

Childhood Obesity · Obesity
Eating Better Together is a 6-month pilot program that teaches families about healthy eating and activity and provides home deliveries of fresh fruits and vegetables from a local retail partner.
Obesity
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to learn how the time of day when calories are eaten affects weight loss in the long-term (12 months). The main aims are to learn: 1. The influence of time-based energy intake goals on longer-term weight loss. 2. The influence of time-based energy intake goals on eating temporal patterns, sleep regularity, and appetite regulation. Researchers will compare whether goals to eat most of a person's calories in the morning or evening work to treat obesity. Participants will: 1. Eat a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet (some participants will have goals to eat their calories at certain times of day based on their group) 2. Be physically active at least 200 minutes 3. Receive a cognitive behavioral intervention
