Study Summary
This hybrid type 3 effectiveness-implementation sequential multiple assignment randomized trial will assess the impact of integrating population health management (PHM) strategies-text messaging and enrollment in Building Healthy Families (BHF)-for lower-income families with a child with obesity identified through electronic health record (EHR) data. BHF promotes family healthy eating, physical activity, and lifestyle behavior strategies to manage weight. The research team will partner with clinical sites (community health clinics, pediatric clinics, rural hospitals) and Community-Based Organizations (CBOs). Clinical partners will execute data-sharing agreements enabling the research team to identify eligible children and caregivers and conduct outreach via text messaging. CBO partners will deliver BHF and provide de-identified data for program evaluation. Community Implementation Teams (CITs) will complete training, surveys, interviews, learning collaborative activities, fidelity assessments, and time tracking as part of quality improvement. The BHF Action Learning Collaborative will use quarterly sessions and Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles to address recruitment, implementation, sustainability, social determinants of health, and team coordination. The research team will record sessions, conduct direct observations of BHF delivery, and take field notes to assess fidelity and adaptations. Families will be identified through EHR records and mailed a consent and authorization cover letter, postcard, QR code, and intervention information with opt-out options. Those who do not opt out will be randomized to bidirectional text messaging with one-touch response and enrollment opportunities, with or without active outreach (telephone or text) from the local CIT. Enrolled families will complete orientation, baseline assessment, and weekly group sessions with ongoing follow-up. Attendance, body weight, goals, and self-monitoring will be recorded in a CIT data portal. Families will

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07479498
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07479498 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 600 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Paul Estabrooks, which has 1 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 Childhood Obesity appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Text Message-based recruitment 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: NCT07479498 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Utah. 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.
