Background: There is evidence that commercially available behavioural weight management programmes can lead to short-term weight loss and reductions in glycaemia. Here, we aimed to provide the 5-year impact and cost-effectiveness of these interventions compared with a brief intervention.
Methods: WRAP was a non-blinded, parallel-group randomised controlled trial (RCT).
