Chronic Weight Management

Obesity is a complex health condition that often goes hand-in-hand with Type 2 diabetes. It can lead to fatigue, joint pain, increased hunger and thirst, and a higher risk of serious health issues.

Clinical Research Philadelphia (CRP) is conducting clinical trials to evaluate investigational treatments for obesity, with or without Type 2 diabetes. These studies aim to explore safe and effective options for long-term weight management and metabolic health.
