About this study

Official title: Mechanisms of Type 2 Diabetes Improvement, Besides Weightloss After Gastric Bypass

Proof of concept, of RYGBP and its capabilities to cure type 2 diabetes (DM 2) and sleep apnea has already been recognized in the reports on weight loss surgery.

The investigators project aims to prove that RYGBP also recovers the beta cell function (BCF) Clamp tests, the gold standard for testing IS and BCF, will be performed preoperative and early postoperatively.

Aims \& methodology:

Analysis of the short-term effect of gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy on insulin sensitivity and beta cell function.

Preoperative baseline insulin sensitivity and beta cell function will be assessed with euglycemic and hyperglycemic clamp tests. These results will be compared with the results of the same tests carried out 3 weeks postoperative.

To determine if the duodenal exclusion is causing this effect. The results of the clamp tests 3 weeks postoperative will be compared

What is being measured

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

  1. insulin sensitivity and beta cell function

    insulin sensitivity and beta cell function changes 3 weeks after RYGB, sleeve gastrectomy and protein sparing diet using euglycaemic and hyperglycemic clamp techniques.

    Measured: 3 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. changes in plasma levels of gut hormones and inflammation markers

    Measured: 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes and Morbid Obesity, run by University Hospital, Gasthuisberg at 1 site in Belgium.

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 10 inclusion and 11 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 4 Dec 2015. 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 Belgium. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

insulin sensitivity and beta cell function (time frame: 3 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Dec 2015.
