This pilot study is a first step in looking at the relationship between exercise and appetite in women with loss of control eating.
Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Participants will eat breakfast but abstain from exercise
Participants will eat breakfast and engage in 30 minutes of physical activity at 75% of their personal V02max.
Participants will engage in 30 minutes of physical activity at their personal 75% V02max after abstaining from breakfast.
Relative Energy Intake
Relative energy intake for 24 hours will be calculated as absolute energy intake from the breakfast (if consumed), lunch, food reward value task, and take home cooler minus energy expenditure during exercise (or comparable time period during rest).
Time frame: Food intake from 8 am to 8 am; Energy expenditure from approximately 9 am to 9:05 am and 9:25 to 9:30 am, coinciding with study condition (rest or exercise)
Lactate
Lactate values
Time frame: 30 minutes, pre-post exercise (or rest)
Acylated ghrelin
Acylated ghrelin
Time frame: Immediately prior to lunch
Self-reported binge eating
Participants will rate the extent the following questions, considering the time frame "since yesterday morning at 8 am" on a 1 to 5 scale from "not at all" to "extremely": "While you were eating, to what extent did you feel a sense of loss of control?," "While you were eating, to what extent did you feel that you could not resist eating," "While you were eating, to what extent did you feel that you could not stop eating once you had started," and "While you were eating, to what extent did you feel driven or compelled to eat?" An answer of 4 or higher on any item will be categorized as binge eating present. Any reported binge eating on either day will be coded as binge eating being present
Time frame: 24 and 48 hours after exercise/rest study visit
Food reward value
Number of trials according to task developed by Bodell and Keel 2015
Time frame: Approximately 3:30 pm day of study visit

Ran from Aug 2024 to primary completion in Apr 2026, 19 months.
Of 269 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Feeding and Eating Disorders, half reached primary completion within 28 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 49. This study's 19 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 274 studies reached it within 28 months; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 49.
