Trial summary

A Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is on the long term not always successful in every patient because weight regain can occur. An intervention to prevent weight regain in the future is to place a silicone band (non-adjustable) around the pouch of the RYGB (Banded-RYGB: BRYGB) which increases weight loss and decreases… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Banded Versus Non-banded Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass, a Randomised Controlled Trial

A Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is on the long term not always successful in every patient because weight regain can occur. An intervention to prevent weight regain in the future is to place a silicone band (non-adjustable) around the pouch of the RYGB (Banded-RYGB: BRYGB) which increases weight loss and decreases weight regain on the longer term. The question is whether primary application of a banded bypass gives a greater weight loss and / or prevent weight regain in the future versus a standard RYGB.

A Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is on the long term not always successful in every patient because weight regain can occur. An intervention to prevent weight regain in the future is to place a silicone band (non-adjustable) around the pouch of the RYGB (Banded-RYGB: BRYGB) which increases weight loss and decreases weight regain on the longer term. The question is whether primary application of a banded bypass gives a greater weight loss and / or prevent weight regain in the future versus a standard RYGB.

The Study design is a prospective, randomized, single center study.

Study population: patients who qualify for a RYGB are eligible to participate. The primary RYGB patients may participate if there is a BMI of 35 kg / m2 with a morbidly obesity-related comorbidity or a BMI of 40kg / m2 or higher.

Intervention: The standard RYGB with a vertical pouch over a 40 french feeding tube with a volume of 30-50 ml, is compared with a banded-RYGB (BRYGB)

    excess weight loss is measured in kilogram.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. percentage total body weight regain (%TBWR)

    Weight regain is measured in kilogram.

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Decrease in type 2 diabetes mellitus

    measuring glycated hemoglobin, decrease in diabetic medication

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Quality of life

    measuring BAROS score

    Measured: 3 years

  5. Decrease in dyslipidaemia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BRYGB 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 1 inclusion and 8 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 21 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?

Percentage total body weight loss (%TBWL) (time frame: 3 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 21 Jun 2024.
