About this study

Official title: A Phase II Single-Center, Prospective, Open Label Study of Safety and Efficacy, of the GI Sleeve for Pre-Surgical Weight Loss, in Type II Diabetes Patients (Cohort 06-6B Only)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the GI Sleeve is safe and effective in treating Type II diabetes patients

Read the detailed description

Patients with obesity are at significantly greater risk of developing complications such as pulmonary dysfunction, diabetes, hypertension, and other co-morbid risks. NIH panel recommendations state that even a 10% short-weight loss would greatly reduce these risks. GI Dynamics' GI Sleeve represents a viable alternative to other short-term pre-surgical weight loss methods. GI Sleeve is a device that can be implanted and removed through minimal invasive endoscopic techniques. This endoscopic procedure brings potential benefits to patients in that it is minimally invasive, efficacious, and allows patients to recover faster with less morbidity and mortality.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. % of Excess Weight Loss (EWL)

    Percent excess weight loss (EWL) was calculated using Body Mass Index (BMI25) method: BMI25=ideal weight in kg/(height in meters)2 Ideal weight in kg = 25 x (Height in meters2) Baseline Excess weight = total weight - ideal weight

    % EWL = (baseline excess weight - weight loss) x 100

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. HbA1c Values at 12 Months

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing GI Liner in people with Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity, run by Morphic Medical Inc. at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Dec 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

% of Excess Weight Loss (EWL) (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00791128, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2017.
