About this study

Official title: Restrictive Extended Pouch in Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a Prospective Randomized Control Trial

Morbid obesity is an increasing medical problem in the western countries. It's related to comorbidities as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, OSAS, arthrosis and hypercholesterolemia. The Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is an effective surgical therapy for morbidly obese patients. A part of these patients will have disappointing results, and have weight regain on the long term. Some studies show more weight reduction by increasing the biliopancreatic limb in patients with morbid obesity.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of a restrictive/extended pouch on weight reduction in morbidly obese patients undergoing RYGB-surgery. We hypothesize that the restrictive/extended pouch results in more weight reduction.

The study design is a prospective, randomized control trial. The patients will be randomized in 2 groups: a standard RYGB (normal pouch) and restrictive/extended pouch RYGB.

What is being measured

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

  1. Weight reduction

    Excess weight loss (%EWL)

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in comorbidities

    Preoperatively the number of patients with comorbidities will be calculated. At two year follow-up this will be calculated again. Patients will be divided in groups:

    1. comorbidity resolved
    2. comorbidity improved
    3. comorbidity unchanged
    4. comorbidity worsened

    This will be done for diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia and OSAS.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Change in comorbidities

    Preoperatively the number of patients with comorbidities will be calculated. At two year follow-up this will be calculated again. Patients will be divided in groups:

    1. comorbidity resolved
    2. comorbidity improved
    3. comorbidity unchanged
    4. comorbidity worsened

    This will be done for diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dislipidemia and OSAS.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Extended Pouch RYGB and Standard RYGB in people with Morbid Obesity, run by Rijnstate Hospital at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 6 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 20 Jun 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Weight reduction (time frame: 2 years). 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 20 Jun 2024.
