- Abstract
Rationale: Being overweight or obese is common among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but whether interventions targeted at weight loss improve functional impairments is unknown. Objectives: INSIGHT (Intervention Study in Overweight Patients with COPD) tested whether a pragmatic low-intensity lifestyle intervention would lead to better physical functional status among overweight or obese participants with COPD. Methods: The trial was a 12-month, multicenter, patient-level pragmatic clinical trial. Participants were recruited from April 2017 to August 2019 from 38 sites across the United States and randomized to receive usual care or usual care plus lifestyle intervention. The intervention was a self-directed video program delivering the Diabetes Prevention Program's Group Lifestyle Balance curriculum. Results: The primary outcome was 6-minute-walk test distance at 12 months. Priority secondary outcomes were postwalk modified Borg dyspnea at 12 months and weight at 12 months. Participants (N= 684; mean age, 67.068.0 yr [standard deviation]; 41.2% female) on average were obese (body mass index, 33.064.6 kg/m2) with moderate COPD (forced expiratory volume in 1 second % predicted, 58.1615.7%). At 12 months, participants randomized to the intervention arm walked farther (adjusted difference, 42.3 ft [95% confidence interval (CI), 7.9-76.7 ft]; P = 0.02), had less dyspnea at the end of the 6-minute-walk test (adjusted difference, 20.36 [95% CI, 20.63 to 20.09]; P = 0.008), and had greater weight loss (adjusted difference, 21.34 kg [95% CI, 22.33 to 20.34 kg]; P = 0.008) than control participants. The intervention did not improve the odds of achieving clinically meaningful thresholds of walk distance (98.4 ft) or dyspnea (1 unit) but did achieve meaningful thresholds of weight loss (3% and 5%). Conclusions: Among participants with COPD who were overweight or obese, a self-guided low-intensity video-based lifestyle intervention led to modest weight loss but did not lead to clinically important improvements in physical functional status and dyspnea.
