About this study

Official title: Safety, Tolerability and Sustained Weight Loss of Immediate Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) With Diet Modification and Exercise vs. Early Diet Modification and Exercise and Delayed ESG for the Treatment of Obesity

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) with diet and exercise, to diet and exercise alone, to see which is better in weight loss reduction. Investigators will also compare the effects of ESG to diet and exercise comorbidities such as diabetes, sleep apnea and high cholesterol as well as the various obesity related hormones.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, prospective randomized case control study with an additional non randomized case arm. This study includes two research interventional groups. Groups A: ESG with diet and exercise modules. Group B: Diet and exercise modules only. Investigators propose to compare ESG to behavioral modification including diet and exercise for patients who have a BMI greater than or equal to 40 kg/m2 or greater than or equal to 30 kg/m2 with 1 or more obesity related co-morbidity and who cannot undergo conventional bariatric surgery(or decline the surgical option). Investigators will also compare the effects of ESG to diet and exercise on comorbidities such as diabetes, sleep apnea and high cholesterol as well as the various obesity related hormones.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Percentage of Total Body Weight Loss

    To compare mean percentage weight loss achieved via ESG with diet modification and exercise, vs. diet modification and exercise only in patients who cannot undergo conventional bariatric surgery for obesity (with BMI greater than or equal to 40 kg/m2 or greater than or equal to 30 kg/m2 with 1 or more obesity related co-morbidity).

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty and Diet and Exercise in people with Obesity, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University at 1 site in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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 15 Apr 2022. 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 United States. 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?

Mean Percentage of Total Body Weight Loss (time frame: 6 months). 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 15 Apr 2022.
