Trial summary

Gastric bypass surgery resolves type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) without the need for diabetes therapy in ~80% of patients. Moreover, improvement in insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis occurs within days after surgery before significant weight loss is achieved. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Metabolic Effects of Duodenal-jejunal Bypass Surgery in Non Morbidly Obese Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes

Gastric bypass surgery resolves type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) without the need for diabetes therapy in ~80% of patients. Moreover, improvement in insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis occurs within days after surgery before significant weight loss is achieved. This observation has led to the notion that bypassing the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract has specific therapeutic effects on insulin action and glucose metabolism. In fact, both surgical and endoscopic procedures that bypass the upper GI tract are currently being studied in human subjects. Recently, a new surgical technique, duodenal-jejunal bypass surgery (DJBS), has been developed specifically to treat T2DM. Data from preliminary studies have shown that DJBS results in glycemic control in 87% of overweight and obese patients with T2DM.These subjects will undergo metabolic studies at the University Hospital in Sao Paulo before and after their surgical procedure. Washington University investigators will: 1) provide technical support and guidance to the physicians performing the studies in Brazil, 2) process and analyze blood samples obtained from the study at the Washington University Center for Human Nutrition, and 3) be involved in analyzing the data and writing the final manuscripts. The effects of DJBS on the following clinical and metabolic parameters will be evaluated

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Duodenal jejunal bypass plus sleeve gastrectomy and Best medical treatment (Metformin ; gliclazide) in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Sao Paulo.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Hb A1a (time frame: 24 mo). 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 18 Jan 2013.
