Read our Obesity research guide →Phase 1/2 — A combined trial that checks safety and dosing while also starting to look at whether the treatment works.
Project SHINE is testing a lifestyle program designed to help African American adults get more sleep and increase physical activity. The program is being customized based on what matters most to the communities it serves. Researchers will first talk with people about their sleep and activity challenges, then test whether the program actually helps people sleep longer and feel healthier.
African American adults face higher rates of sleep deprivation, physical inactivity, and obesity, which increases the risk for serious health problems. This trial exists to create and test a program that addresses these issues in a way that respects and reflects the real lives and values of African American communities.

The study has two phases. First, some participants will have in-depth conversations about sleep, activity, and what matters in their lives—this helps researchers understand what will actually work for people. Then, other participants will be randomly assigned to either receive the sleep and activity program or to a control group that gets educational materials. Those in the program group will learn strategies to sleep more and move more, tailored to their lives. A smaller group may also have blood tests at the beginning and end to check for health changes.
