Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Bile Acid Supplement Group

Subjects with obesity and abnormal satiety phenotype will receive ileocolonic-release conjugated bile acid supplements

Dietary Supplement: Ileocolonic-release conjugated bile acid
1000mg tablets orally twice a daily on an empty stomach, 30 minutes prior to breakfast and evening dinner for 90 +/- 4 days
Other Names:
  • IC-CBAS
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo Group

    Subjects with obesity and abnormal satiety phenotype will receive matching-placebo

    Drug: Placebo
    Placebo looks exactly like the study drug, but it contains no active ingredient. 1000mg tablets orally twice a daily on an empty stomach, 30 minutes prior to breakfast and evening dinner for 90 +/- 4 days.
    Other Names:
  • Matching-placebo
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Enteroendocrine L cell (EEC) function [up to 90 days]

      Change in postprandial GLP-1 (ug/ml)

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years to 65 Years
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    Yes
    Inclusion Criteria:
    • Willing to provide consent.

    • Patients with obesity BMI> 30 kg/m^2 and hungry gut phenotype.

    • Gender: men or women. Women of childbearing potential will have a negative pregnancy test before initiation of medication and within 48 hours of receiving radioisotope for the gastric emptying study.

    • Otherwise healthy individuals or with controlled chronic medical conditions such as type 2 diabetes.

    Exclusion Criteria:
    • Structural or metabolic diseases/conditions that affect the gastrointestinal system, or functional gastrointestinal disorders. For screening the bowel disease questionnaire will be used to exclude subjects with irritable bowel syndrome.

    • Subjects with stool type Bristol classification 6-7 per bowel disease questionnaire.

    • Female subjects who are pregnant or breast-feeding.

    • Use of anti-obesity medications upon screening (ie., orlistat, phentermine-topiramate, liraglutide, semaglutide, bupropion-naltrexone), metformin or GLP-1 analogs.

    • Individuals who are currently on treatment for unstable cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, hematological, neurological, endocrine, and psychiatric disease.

    • Any acute or chronic condition or other disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would limit the subject's ability to complete and/or participate in this clinical study.

    • Significant untreated psychiatric dysfunction based upon screening. Hospital Anxiety and - Depression Inventory (HAD) score > 11 on depression scale, a self-administered alcoholism screening test (AUDIT-C) score >4 in men or >3 in women, and difficulties with substance or eating disorders determined by the Questionnaire on Eating and Weight - Patterns (binge eating disorders and bulimia); will mean the participant will be excluded and given a referral letter to his/her primary care doctor for further appraisal and follow-up. The provider will review the patient's alcohol intake over the past few months to confirm accuracy and determine study eligibility.
