The goal of this commentary was to present ideas that could help to guide the evolution of the next generation of pediatric obesity treatments. Whereas considerable progress has been made in treatment efficacy studies, there is the potential for enhancing the efficacy of existing treatments and developing new paradigms to treat pediatric obesity by tailoring treatment based on moderators of treatment success, and translating basic science into clinical interventions. It will be necessary to then evaluate efficacious treatments using effectiveness designs, and to evaluate their cost-effectiveness. © 2010 The Obesity Society.
