NCT06166225 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the addition of online yoga classes, compared to health and wellness classes, can improve the amount of weight loss produced from an Internet-based weight loss program. All individuals will receive a 12-month, automated Internet-based weight loss program. Following 3 months of of weight loss treatment, individuals will be randomized to also receive yoga classes or health and wellness classes for 9 months. Assessments will occur at baseline, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months and will include measures of weight, eating behaviors, physical activity, and psychosocial factors.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06166225
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06166225 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 210 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is The Miriam Hospital, which has 139 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Obesity appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 3 interventions — of which Yoga is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06166225 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Rhode Island. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
