Trial summary

Studies in overweight and obese subjects show a decline in resting metabolic rate (RMR) even after moderate caloric restriction. Yet the onset and course of such a metabolic adaption is still unclear. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Caloric Restriction and Gastric Bypass on Resting Metabolic Rate in Obese Subjects

Studies in overweight and obese subjects show a decline in resting metabolic rate (RMR) even after moderate caloric restriction. Yet the onset and course of such a metabolic adaption is still unclear. Lower resting metabolic rates were also reported after gastric banding bariatric surgery but have not yet been investigated in subjects after gastric bypass. The purpose of this study is to investigate the consequences on resting metabolic rate in subjects with obesity after moderate caloric restriction or gastric bypass.

What participants receive

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

  • Gastric bypassProcedure or surgery

    Subjects with a planned gastric bypass surgery are followed-up for resting metabolic rate.

  • Caloric restrictionBehavioural

    Subjects receive caloric restriction as calculated by an online weight management program and are followed-up for resting metabolic rate.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gastric bypass and Caloric restriction in people with Obesity, run by KiloCoach e.U. at 2 sites in Austria.

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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Austria. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Resting metabolic rate (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 5 Feb 2015.
