Die klinische Studie NCT07218445 untersucht Behandlung im Zusammenhang mit Fettleibigkeit, Menopause Hot Flashes. Diese interventionsstudie der Phase 4 hat den Status aktiv, nicht rekrutierend und startete am 16. September 2025. Es ist geplant, 40 Teilnehmer aufzunehmen. Durchgeführt von Mayo-Klinik wird der Abschluss für 18. September 2027 erwartet. Die Daten von ClinicalTrials.gov wurden zuletzt am 30. Oktober 2025 aktualisiert.

ExperimentellTirzepatide
Participants will receive tirzepatide for 24 weeks, in addition to standard lifestyle modification recommendations
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide will be administered with a starting dose of 2.5 mg weekly, subcutaneously injected. The dose will increase by 2.5 mg every 4 weeks until reaching 15 mg. Participants will be asked to follow lifestyle interventions: * Low-calorie diet based on their predicted by Harris Benedict resting energy expenditure minus 500 kcal per day * Physical activity: a goal of 10,000 steps or more per day * Exercise: a goal of 150 minutes or more of moderate-intensity aerobic activity (cardiovascular exercise) per week * Limited consumption of liquid calories (i.e. sodas, juices, alcohol, etc.).
Placebo-VergleichspräparatPlacebo
Participants will receive a placebo for 24 weeks, in addition to standard lifestyle modification recommendations
PLACEBO
A placebo for Tirzepatide will be administered with a starting dose of 2.5 mg weekly, subcutaneously injected. The dose will increase by 2.5 mg every 4 weeks until reaching 15 mg. Participants will be asked to follow lifestyle interventions: * Low-calorie diet based on their predicted by Harris Benedict resting energy expenditure minus 500 kcal per day * Physical activity: a goal of 10,000 steps or more per day * Exercise: a goal of 150 minutes or more of moderate-intensity aerobic activity (cardiovascular exercise) per week * Limited consumption of liquid calories (i.e. sodas, juices, alcohol, etc.).
Hauptergebnismessungen
ErgebnismessungBeschreibung der MessungZeitrahmen
Change in Vasomotor Symptoms Frequency
Change in the frequency of self-reported daily average vasomotor symptoms from baseline to 24 weeks. Vasomotor symptoms will be captured for 2 weeks at baseline and 2 weeks at the end of the study.
Baseline, 24 weeks
Change in Vasomotor Symptom Severity
Change in self-reported daily vasomotor symptom severity from baseline to 24 weeks. Vasomotor symptoms will be captured for 2 weeks at baseline and at the end of the study. Severity will be classified as follows: Mild, sensation of heat without sweating/dampness; Moderate: sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but able to continue current activity. May briefly fan yourself; Severe: sensation of intense heat with sweating causing disruption of current activity.
Baseline, 24 weeks
Aging Biomarkers: Cellular Senescence Markers in Plasma
Cellular senescence markers are measured in plasma samples to assess biological aging and cellular stress. These markers may include proteins associated with the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Quantification is performed using immunoassays. Higher levels of senescence markers indicate increased cellular senescence.
24 weeks
Difference between biological and chronological age
Epigenetic clocks estimate biological age by analyzing DNA methylation patterns at specific CpG sites across the genome. Biological age estimates are compared to chronological age to assess aging acceleration or deceleration. Biological age greater than chronological age indicates accelerated biological aging and potential increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Primary measure is the difference (ΔAge) between biological and chronological ages = reported in years.
24 weeks
Nebenergebnismessungen
ErgebnismessungBeschreibung der MessungZeitrahmen
Change in Vascular Function
Vascular function will be measured using the EndoPAT device to assesses reactive hyperemia index (RHI) from baseline to week 24 on treatment or placebo. RHI is automatically calculated through a computer algorithm by following the equation: \[(tested arm-post occlusion/tested arm-baseline)/(control arm-post occlusion/control arm-baseline)\] × baseline correction factor. Endothelial dysfunction is defined as having an RHI ratio of \<1.67.
Baseline, 24 weeks
Change in Cardiometabolic Parameters: Blood Pressure
Change in cardiometabolic parameters including blood pressure from baseline to week 24 on treatment or placebo. Measured in mmhg
Baseline, 24 weeks
Change in Cardiometabolic Parameters: Fasting Glucose
Change in cardiometabolic parameters including fasting glucose from baseline to week 24 on treatment or placebo. Measured in mg/dL
Baseline, 24 weeks
Changes in Cardiometabolic Parameters: HbA1C
Change in cardiometabolic parameters including HbA1C from baseline to week 24 on treatment or placebo. Measured in %
Baseline, 24 weeks
Changes in Cardiometabolic Parameters: Lipoprotein profile
Change in cardiometabolic parameters including Lipoprotein profile from baseline to week 24 on treatment or placebo. Measured in mg/dL
Baseline, 24 weeks
Changes in Cardiometabolic Parameters: hsCRP
Change in cardiometabolic parameters including hsCRP from baseline to week 24 on treatment or placebo. Measured in mg/L
Baseline, 24 weeks
