Conditions

Obesity & Overweight

Brief summary

A pragmatic, randomized, parallel-arm, controlled study of weight loss outcomes using AOMs guided by MyPhenome test.

Interventions

The MyPhenome test is a genetic and clinical assessment that classifies individuals into biologically defined obesity phenotypes to guide personalized treatment. Using a saliva DNA sample combined with brief clinical inputs, the test predicts whether a patient has abnormalities in high CTSGRS ("Hungry Brain"), low CTSGRS ("Hungry Gut"), or hedonic eating ("Emotional Hunger").

Available AOMs will be: GLP-1 Receptor Agonists (semaglutide or tirzepatide), Phentermine-Topiramate ER, and naltrexone-bupropion SR

Cost-Effectiveness3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 MonthsCost-Effectiveness Pharmacy resource utilization data will be collected during the study. Pharmacotherapy costs will be directly compared between control and intervention groups and compared to weight loss outcomes.
Patient Satisfaction3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 MonthsClient Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8): Given the design of the study, we will measure and evaluate patient satisfaction with a program of care rather than satisfaction with a specific medication. The satisfaction with the program will be evaluated with the adapted Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8). This is an 8-item measure that captures overall satisfaction with the care received, including perceived quality, whether care met patient needs, and willingness to recommend the program (each item score 1-4). The items will be lightly adapted to refer to weight management care with a total score ranging from 8 to 32 .
