About this study

Official title: Move and Moderate in Balance (MOVE'M): A TREC Worksite Health Study

H1: The increase in body mass index between baseline and two year follow-up among intervention worksites will be lower than that among control worksites, such that the differential change will be negative on average.

Read the detailed description

Our overall objective is to develop and evaluate an intervention that will maintain or decrease body mass index; specifically, we will recruit and randomize 30 worksites to a two year intervention in which we will:

  • Influence the worksite environment, including policies and procedures, by increasing worksite access to healthy foods and physical activity opportunities
  • Promote individual behavior change, through increasing awareness of energy balance; building a physical activity intervention that will promote increased levels of energy expenditure through the combination of increased daily physical activity and regular, structured exercise; and building a dietary intervention that will promote decreased calorie intake.

Our primary aim is to:

  1. Evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention in reducing or maintaining body mass index in a randomized controlled trial of worksites.

Our secondary aims are to:

  1. Assess changes in worksite environment in access to healthy foods and physical activity opportunities attributable to the intervention
  2. Assess changes in individual level physical activity and energy intake attributable to the intervention
  3. Assess the changes in sequalae of weight loss including biomarkers of metabolic effects, and weight loss quality of life and symptom measures; and
  4. Estimate the cost-effectiveness of the intervention in controlling weight.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Energy BalanceBehavioural

    Also called dietary intake, energy expenditure, energy intake, physical activity

    We propose to develop and test a comprehensive intervention that will provide simple strategies related to dietary intake and energy expenditure that individuals can follow to achieve a balance in their energy intake and expenditure, while simultaneously changing structural and environmental cues to focus on promoting information, social support and opportunities for managing energy intake and increasing physical activity.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Our main outcome measure is change in body mass index, as an aggregated value at the worksite level.

    Measured: At study conclusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary, process measures will be of physical activity, physical fitness and calorie intake, at the individual level, within worksites.

    Measured: At study conclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Energy Balance in people with Overweight and Obesity, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Our main outcome measure is change in body mass index, as an aggregated value at the worksite level. (time frame: At study conclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Dec 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
