About this study

Official title: A Study to Assess Change in Weight Over Six Months in Prader-Willi Syndrome

This is a completely text-messaging based study and all data will be collected via surveys administered on a mobile phone. For this study, we will gather and analyze data on changes in body weight over a 6-month interval in individuals aged 12 and over. This will help us learn more about the normal variation in weight, over time, in the PWS population.

Read the detailed description

The incidence and natural history of several PWS symptoms are poorly defined. In this text-messaging based study we will gather and analyze data on changes in body weight over a 6-month interval, in individuals aged 12 and over. We would like to learn about the normal weight variation in the PWS population.

We anticipate that this study will inform future clinical trials for hyperphagia/obesity related therapies, and provide a basis for understanding how well potential therapies are working. For this study, there will be no intervention and the all data will be collected via texting.
