Around 63% of the UK’s adult population are considered to be overweight or obese (Source: UK Government). Obesity is a growing global health crisis and can lead to numerous health issues in the future, such as cardiovascular disease and hypertension.
For those with Type 2 Diabetes, management of weight loss can be particularly important.
Diabetic? Previously tried to lose weight through diet or exercise and struggled? This research study could be of interest to you.
We’re investigating a weight loss treatment in those patients who are living with overweight or obesity and who have type 2 diabetes.
This study is open to anyone over the age of 18 who:
- Has previously unsuccessfully tried to lose weight through a change in diet or through exercise
- Has a BMI of 27 or over
- Has a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes
Your participation in this study will last for just under two years and will involve receiving the study treatment once a month for around 18 months.
Your participation will also involve regular visits to our clinic throughout the course of the study
All participants will be paid back for reasonable out of pocket expenses including travel, meals, childcare, accommodation and inconvenience due to taking part in the study
Participation in clinical trials provides access to innovative and potentially life-saving treatments. It also contributes to medical research, benefiting both current and future healthcare outcomes. It provides cutting-edge medical care under professional supervision and empowers individuals to contribute to the well-being of society. However, participants should carefully weigh up the risks and benefits and seek advice from their doctor before taking part in a trial.
