Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
All participants (intervention group and comparator group) will be prescribed metformin and participate in a diet and exercise program. The diet and exercise program will be the same for all participants except for the macronutrient content of the diet. The intervention diet is moderate carbohydrate and increased protein. Carbohydrate will provide 40 to 45% of energy and protien will provide 25 to 30% of energy. The energy level will be tailored on an individual basis to incorporate an energy restriction of approximately 500-1000 kilojoules (kJ)/day. Particpants will be encourage to stay on the diet for 12 months.Individual, face to face, dietary instruction will be given by a dietitian (6 consultations of 30 to 60 minutes, over 12 months) which will be supported by computer/phone support (8 contacts of 5 to 10 minutes, over 12 months) according to a pre established schedule

Lifestyle
Comparator / control treatment
All participants (intervention group and comparator group) will be prescribed metformin and participate in a diet and exercise program. The diet and exercise program will be the same for all participants except for the macronutrient content of the diet. The comparator goup will be high carbohydrate, low fat diet. Carbohydrate will provide 55 to 60% of energy and protien will provide 10 to 15% of energy. The energy level will be tailored on an individual basis to incorporate an energy restriction of approximately 500-1000 kJ/day.Particpants will be encourage to stay on the diet for 12 months. Individual, face to face, dietary instruction will be given by a dietitian (6 consultations, 30 to 60 minutes, over 12 months) which will be supported by computer/phone support (8 contacts of 5 to 10 minutes, over 12 months) according to a pre established schedule

Study design
Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Recruitment will occur through hospital referral (the Endocrinology or Weight Management Services, the Children's Hospital at Westmead (CHW), Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH) or Campbelltown Hospital(CH)), GP and paediatricians. Treatment allocation will occur centrally by minimisation with the aid of computer software, by the statistician in the Clinical Epidemiology Unit, CHW
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Treatment allocation will occur centrally by minimisation with the aid of computer software. To adjust for potential confounding influences participants will be randomised into dietary groups stratified by sex, age and BMI.
