Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the Take Charge Study is to determine among overweight and obese men and women with type 2 diabetes whether 1) participating in a commercial weight loss program promotes great weight loss and weight loss maintenance at one year compared to usual care conditions and 2) whether there is a differential weight loss response to different dietary macronutrient composition (lower carbohydrate/higher fat diet versus a higher carbohydrate/lower fat).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Higher Carbohydrate/Lower Fat Diet

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Higher Carbohydrate, Lower Fat Diet

Intervention Type OTHER

Study participants will receive prepackaged prepared foods as needed to achieve a meal plan, free-of-charge for a 12-month period. The lower fat, higher carbohydrate diet provides 60% energy from carbohydrate, 20% energy from fat, and 20% energy from protein. The diet falls within the range of current dietary recommendations.

Lower Carbohydrate/Higher Fat Diet

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Lower carbohydrate, Higher fat diet

Intervention Type OTHER

Study participants will receive prepackaged prepared foods as needed to achieve a meal plan, free-of-charge for a 12-month period. The lower carbohydrate, higher fat diet provides 45% energy from carbohydrate, 35% energy from fat, and 20% energy from protein. The diet falls within the range of current dietary recommendations.

Individualized Counseling

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Individualized Counseling

Intervention Type OTHER

Participants assigned to the usual care group will be provided consultation with a research staff dietetics professional, who will provide publicly available print material that describes dietary and physical activity guidelines to promote weight loss and maintenance, at baseline (after randomization) and again at 6 months.
