About this study

Purpose: This study will test the efficacy of a family-focused lifestyle intervention for reducing type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk factors and increasing Quality of Life (QoL) among high-risk Latino families.

Read the detailed description

Background: T2D disproportionately impacts Latino children, families and communities. The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) established that T2D can be prevented in high-risk adults through intensive lifestyle intervention. Although the DPP has been translated to a variety of adult populations and settings, engagement and effectiveness is diminished in minority communities and there are no family-focused diabetes prevention trials for Latinos. The culturally-grounded approach is guided by an Ecodevelopmental model that considers community, family, peer, and individual-level factors that influence health behaviors and health outcomes over time. The study will test the efficacy of a 16-week family-focused lifestyle intervention for reducing T2D risk and increasing QoL among high-risk Latino families as compared to control families. The study will use Integrative Mixed Methods to understand how family structures and processes influence intervention outcomes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Glucose Tolerance

    Glucose tolerance will be determined using a standard 75-gram Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) with samples collected at fasting and 120 minutes for assessment of glucose concentrations. We will follow the OGTT protocol used by the CDC for the NHANES.

    Centers for Disease Control. Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) Procedures Manual. In: Survey NHaNE, ed2007.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Weight Specific Quality of Life (QoL)

    Youth Quality of Life (YQOL) inventory shows strong psychometric properties, internal consistency (Chronbach's alpha >0.80), test-retest reliability (ICC > 0.74), and construct validity with other pediatric QoL measures (r = 0.73, P<0.05 with KINDL).

    Weight-specific QoL (YQOL-W) measures three domains of weight-related QoL (Self, Social, Environmental). The instrument shows good reliability (ICC = 0.77) and construct validity with the Children's Depression Inventory (r=0.57, P<0.01).

    Adults will be assessed using the World Health Organization Brief Quality of Life Instrument, demonstrates good to excellent psychometric properties. Weight-specific QoL in adults will be assessed by the Obesity and Weight-Loss Quality of Life (OWLQOL) instrument which demonstrates strong psychometric properties internal consistency (Chronbach's alpha >0.90), test-retest reliability (ICC > 0.95), and construct validity with other QoL measures (r = 0.53, P<0.05).

    Measured: 16 weeks

  2. Total body composition-muscle

    Muscle (grams) will be assessed by Dual-energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) using the GE Lunar iDXA (GE Lunar, Madison, WI).

    Measured: 16 weeks

  3. Total body composition-fat

    Fat (grams) will be assessed by Dual-energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) using the GE Lunar iDXA (GE Lunar, Madison, WI).

    Measured: 16 weeks

  4. Total body composition-bone

    Bone density (grams) will be assessed by Dual-energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) using the GE Lunar iDXA (GE Lunar, Madison, WI).

    Measured: 16 weeks

  5. Physical Activity

    Physical Activity will be assessed using accelerometers (Actigraph wGT3X-BT) to capture minutes/day of moderate, moderate to vigorous, and vigorous activity over 7-days with >4 days and >10 hours/day determined as valid. Data will be processed and analyzed using ActiLife v6.13 software.

    Measured: 16 weeks

  6. Dietary behaviors

    Dietary behaviors will be assessed using the NCI ((National Cancer Institute) Dietary Screener Questionnaire.

    To score the questionnaire, we use the NCI's (National Cancer Institute) scoring algorithms to convert screener responses to estimates of individual dietary intake for fruits and vegetables (cup equivalents), dairy (cup equivalents), added sugars (teaspoon equivalents), whole grains (ounce equivalents), fiber (g), and calcium (mg) with higher values indicating greater intake. For a fuller description of the statistical methods used, see: Thompson FE, Midthune D, Kahle L, Dodd KW. Development and Evaluation of the National Cancer Institute's Dietary Screener Questionnaire Scoring Algorithms. J Nutrition 2017 Jun;147(6):1226-1233.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lifestyle Intervention in people with Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity, run by Arizona State University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glucose Tolerance (time frame: 16 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Apr 2026.
