Brief Summary:
The study team will study the efficacy of a high intensity medical weight loss intervention paired with a digital platform to create weight loss and induce remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared to a diabetes self-management education intervention. The digital platform provides the capability to tailor the treatment plan, provide automated support, and alert providers when a participant may need more support from the clinical team. If shown to be efficacious, this research could be highly impactful, causing us to rethink our approach to care for those with T2DM and shift the paradigm for millions of individuals in the United States. Furthermore, this approach will demonstrate the feasibility of helping people engage in metabolic treatment strategies in a way that is scalable leveraging digital and mobile solutions that extend the patient-provider relationship, shift care from episodic approaches to more of an on-going model that extends into the life of the patient, while also integrated within the healthcare system workflows.
Detailed Description:
This project will determine if a data-assisted, high intensity medical weight loss intervention (HIWL) will lead to significant weight loss and diabetes remission in individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) 30-39.9 kg/m2 with T2DM of less than 6 years as compared to a diabetes self-management education intervention (DSME). Complete diabetes remission is considered to be achieved when the patient is not taking any anti-diabetes medication for at least 12 months, and the Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) is \< 5.7%. Partial remission is achieved when the patient is not taking any anti-diabetes medication and has an HbA1c of 5.7-6.4% for at least 12 months.Using a randomized controlled study design, we will randomly assign 90 participants to HIWL, HIWL + continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), or DSME. Participants assigned to HIWL will receive a high intensity behavioral weight loss intervention delivered using a digital patient engagement platform. Participants will be prescribed a low calorie dietary plan and a recommended physical activity program designed to produce 15-20% weight loss over 12 months. Those assigned to HIWL + CGM will receive the same intervention as HIWL; in addition we will provide them with CGM to use as part of their remote monitoring on a daily basis. Those assigned to DSME will participate in a comprehensive diabetes education program designed to provide education and skills for optimal diabetes management plus lifestyle modification counseling to produce 5% weight loss over the same timeframe. The primary outcome of weight loss will be assessed at 12 months.
