If you would like to learn more or are interested in participating, please email us at niche@tufts.edu.
Have you recently stopped taking a GLP-1 medication, but worry about weight regain?
You may be eligible to participate in this study to see if there are ways to help people maintain weight loss after stopping a GLP-1. We are doing this study to learn how to better support people’s health after they stop taking certain weight-related medications (such as GLP-1 medications). We want to understand what kinds of support are most helpful during this time. In this study, we are testing a program called Noom® to see if it can help people maintain healthy habits after stopping medication.
Who is eligible? Adult 18+, greater than 10% weight loss from taking GLP-1 medications (e.g., Trulicity, Bydureon bcise, Byetta, Ozempic, Victoza,Saxenda, Adlyxin, Rybelsus, etc.), less than 30 days since stopping medication.
What does it entail? Random assignment to begin, stop, or never start a 12-month Noom® subscription. Monthly weigh-ins using a Bluetooth scale and quarterly surveys. Participants are paid $50 for quarterly surveys & weigh-ins (baseline, month 3, month 6, month 9, month 12 - up to $250 total) & receive a free bluetooth scale delivered to their home.
How do I sign up? This study is not yet enrolling, but check back as we will be soon!
