Starting Early to Prevent Obesity Using Telehealth (StEP OUT): Pilot RCT
NCT07254065 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to test an online program that teaches healthy habits during pregnancy and infant to prevent early child obesity in Latino families. Specifically, this pilot trial will determine how well we can deliver and test the effects of the program, and how acceptable it is to participants. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is a randomized controlled trial of StEP OUT versus infant safety education control feasible to conduct and acceptable to participants? Researchers will compare StEP OUT to infant safety education control to see if participants enroll in and engage with the program, complete surveys, and learn the content we are teaching. Participants will: * Be assigned to receive StEP OUT or Infant Safety Education * If receiving StEP OUT, they will participant in group text chats and video calls * If receiving Infant Safety Education, they will receive periodic text messages with helpful links and tips * Respond to periodic surveys

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07254065
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07254065 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 130 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Northwell Health, which has 371 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Feasibility and Acceptability appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which StEP OUT 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: NCT07254065 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include New York. 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.
