About this study

Over 24 million Americans are over 65 years and have prediabetes. Prediabetes can be addressed using a public health approach: among the 20% of participants in the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) who were ages 60 and over, the diet and physical activity intervention conferred a 71% risk reduction of diabetes after an average follow-up of 3 years. The population of older adults is projected to more than double from 52.5 million in 2019 to ~100 million by 2060, and if projections hold, about half (48.3%) will have prediabetes. The proposed hybrid effectiveness implementation type 1 design will compare a DPP program Tailored for Older Adults and delivered via Telehealth (DPP-TOAT arm) to an in person DPP tailored for older adults (DPP arm) using a randomized, controlled trial design (n=230). The preliminary data suggests DPP-TOAT is a feasible and acceptable way to deliver the DPP to older adults, and this will be the first study to compare the effectiveness and implementation of two strategies (telehealth versus in-person) to deliver a tailored DPP for the unique needs of the growing population of older adults.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will be recruited through electronic health records (Epic and MyChart) and randomized to the 12-month DPP-TOAT or the in-person DPP program. Primary effectiveness outcome will be 6-month weight loss and implementation outcome will be attendance. A pragmatic approach will be used in order to inform future studies conducted in community-based and rural settings. Findings will inform best practices in the delivery of an evidence-based intervention that could reach the 30+ million adults aged 65 and over with prediabetes.

What participants receive

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

  • DPP Tailored for Older Adults and delivered via TelehealthOther

    Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) Tailored for Older Adults and delivered via Telehealth (DPP-TOAT) will be composed of 16 60-minute weekly sessions followed by six 60-minute monthly support sessions

  • In-Person Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)Other

    Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) is composed of 16 60-minute weekly sessions followed by six 60-minute monthly support sessions over 12 months in person approved by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in weight in participants in DPP-TOAT is similar to those in In-Person DPP

    In-person outcome assessment visits at the New York University Langone research clinic to measure weight at baseline, 6, and 12 months among all randomized participants

    Measured: Baseline visit, 6 months visit, 12 month visit

  2. Changes in HbA1c in participants in DPP-TOAT is similar to those in In-Person DPP

    In-person outcome assessment visits at New York University Langone research clinic to measure glycemia at baseline, 6, and 12 months among all randomized participants

    Measured: Baseline visit, 6 months visit, 12 month visit

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adherence to the DPP-TOAT is greater than the in-person DPP

    This will be measured by the number of group sessions completed by each participant.

    Measured: Baseline visit, 6 months visit, 12 month visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DPP Tailored for Older Adults and delivered via Telehealth and In-Person Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) in people with Pre Diabetes, run by NYU Langone Health 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 8 inclusion and 7 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 23 Sep 2026. 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?

Changes in weight in participants in DPP-TOAT is similar to those in In-Person DPP (time frame: Baseline visit, 6 months visit, 12 month visit). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Sep 2026.
