Trial Summary
Trial Overview
Inclusion Criteria
Symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and high body mass index (BMI)
overlap. The investigators are trying to find out if a program proven to help people lose a
modest amount of weight and increase their physical activity will improve COPD symptoms for
those with a high BMI. The program uses a series of digital video discs (DVD) sessions
focused on healthy eating and physical activity, and encourages participants to monitor their
weight, diet, and physical activity for two years. For those who want to, they will be able
to work with a health coach to help meet weight and activity goals. We hope that the program
will lead to weight loss, better exercise tolerance, and less shortness of breath. To be in
the study, participants will need to have COPD, high BMI, history of smoking, shortness of
breath, and be at least 40 years old.


Inclusion Criteria:

- 40 years or older at time of eligibility screening;

- Body mass index 25.0-44.9 kg/m2 (also see Figure 2);

- Smoked more than 10 pack-years of cigarettes;

- Shortness of breath;

- COPD;

- Able to participate fully in all study protocol/procedures including written informed
consent process.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Inability to speak, read, or understand English;

- Active weight loss interventions;

- Expected weight loss because of alternate explanations, such as from illness;

- Unable to ambulate to weight scale for weight measurement;

- Safety and/or adherence concerns due to severe physical or mental health issues or
life expectancy <24 months;

- Pregnant, lactating, or planning to become pregnant during the study period;

- Participation in other intervention studies.
