H-PACE Program for Childhood Obesity
Las Cruces, New MexicoThis clinical trial tests the effectiveness of a Healthy Parents and Children Enhancement (H-PACE) program for improving lifestyle behaviors among children. Proper nutrition and physical activity (PA) are essential parts of overall health. Together, they can decrease the risk of developing obesity as well as related diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and several types of cancer. To address the prevalence of obesity and related diseases, programs focusing on increasing opportunities for active living and healthy eating are necessary. Multi-component school-based obesity prevention programs have demonstrated increases in PA and improvement in dietary habits; however, most afterschool programs are short term; evidence is needed to confirm long-term effects. Moreover, programs that involve parents have shown to be more successful in helping children choose healthier behaviors. Unfortunately, due to technological advancement, opportunities for children to be active in schools have become more limited in modern society. H-PACE program is based on the national childhood obesity prevention campaign designed to help families, schools, communities, and physicians to raise awareness of nutritional and PA daily guidelines. The H-PACE will encourage daily lifestyle behaviors (five or more servings of fruits and vegetables, two hours or less of recreational screen time, one hour of PA, zero sugary drinks, ten hours of sleep) that impact childhood obesity. This trial is being done to determine whether participating in the H-PACE program may help improve lifestyle behaviors among children.

Behavioral Weight Loss + Progestin for Endometrial Hyperplasia
Albuquerque, New MexicoUp to 60% of endometrial cancer cases are attributed to obesity, in part because obesity promotes development of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH), and up to 40% of women with AEH go on to develop endometrial cancer. The increasing prevalence of obesity in premenopausal women has resulted in increasing rates of AEH in this age group. Hysterectomy with removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries is 100% effective in preventing endometrial cancer, but this approach results in infertility. Fertility-sparing treatments exist, such as treatment with oral or intrauterine progestin, but these treatments do not work uniformly and do not combat the underlying cause of endometrial cancer, which is obesity and metabolic syndrome. Additionally, up to 41% of women on progestin eventually experience relapse of AEH or endometrial cancer. Third, many patients have insulin resistance that may worsen with progestin therapy. Thus, to improve treatment of AEH and grade 1 endometrial cancer, prevent and reverse endometrial cancer, and allow women to preserve their fertility, the investigators must integrate an effective weight loss strategy to be given with progestin treatment. It is the hypothesis that premenopausal women with AEH desire uterine preservation will be more likely to have atypia-free uterine preservation at one year if they receive progestin in combination with a behavioral weight loss intervention versus progestin plus enhanced usual care.

Fitbit Devices for Pregnancy Weight Control
Tucson, ArizonaThere are set guidelines for weight gain developed by the Institute of Medicine in pregnancy but about three quarters of women gain an inappropriate weight during pregnancy. Many studies have assessed ways to decrease weight gain in these women who gain excess weight, usually through a combination of diet and exercise. Still, often these interventions are difficult to implement, expensive, or have low acceptability. Wearable Fitbit devices have been on the market for years and slowly becoming more inexpensive and easier to use.
Previous studies on non-pregnant women have shown that using the device can help reduce weight gain. In addition, small studies in pregnant women have shown they are accurate for measuring steps and have high acceptability and retention rates. The ability of the Fitbit to assess metrics of sleep including sleep duration and quality will also be assessed.
This project aims to provide overweight and obese pregnant women at the beginning of their pregnancy with the Fitbit device and with regular follow-up to assess if there is effectiveness in increasing the rate of women who meet weight gain guidelines compared to women without the device along with measuring aspects of sleep.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of a prehab intervention among American Indian (AI) patients diagnosed with obesity-related cancer and measure inflammatory biomarkers to evaluate the preliminary impact of the trial intervention. The central hypothesis is that this community-informed prehab intervention will demonstrate feasibility, patient acceptability, and modulation of host and tumor-microenvironment inflammatory biomarkers.
Aim 1: Implement the prehab translational clinical trial for AI patients with obesity-related solid tumor cancer scheduled for surgery.
Aim 2 Measure host and tumor-microenvironment (TME) biomarkers using paired serum and tissue samples to compare baseline and post-intervention levels of expression. Serum markers include CRP, IL-6, IL-10, TNFa, IGF-1, VEGF, complete blood count (CBC) with differential, comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), and prealbumin. Tissue markers include Ki67, insulin receptor, TNFa, NFKB, NOS2, and cleaved caspase 3.
Aim 3: (optional exploratory aim): Assess differential expression of inflammatory genes in the TME using tumor tissue samples to compare baseline and post-intervention levels of expression. This will be done with a panel that analyzes inflammatory genes only.

Water is K'é Intervention for Healthy Lifestyle
Window Rock, ArizonaThe goal of this clinical trial is to understand if a cultural intervention for Navajo families will improve healthy beverage habits, health outcomes, and family cohesion. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does Water is K'é results in healthier beverage habits among children aged 2 to 5, compared with children in a control group?
* Does the intervention improve the health of other family members?
* How does the intervention affect family well-being?
Participants will take part in a four-month program at the early child education site (such as a Head Start or the Bureau of Indian Affair's Family and Child Education or FACE Program) where the child is enrolled. They will take part in lesson plans, a social media campaign, and a family water access plan. Researchers will compare the participating families with families at wait-list early child educations sites. We will collect information through surveys, health measurements, and qualitative interviews and compare results to learn if Water is K'e improves health behaviors, health outcomes, and family cohesion.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Obesity clinical trials in Las Cruces, NM pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Obesity clinical trials in Las Cruces, NM work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Obesity trials in Las Cruces, NM 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Las Cruces, NM for Obesity is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Las Cruces, NM several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Obesity medical study in Las Cruces, NM ?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest Obesity clinical trials in Las Cruces, NM ?
Most recently, we added Nutrition & Exercise Prehabilitation for Obesity-Related Cancer, Tirzepatide for Obesity and Maridebart Cafraglutide for Obesity to the Power online platform.
