About this study

Official title: Transit Bipartition to Promote Weight Loss After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

Retrospective analysis of 100 morbidly obese patients who underwent a transit bipartition (TB) procedure ("Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal bypass") for inadequate weight loss or weight recidivism after a previous sleeve gastrectomy. Data were collected prospectively in strictly pseudonymous form. The primary endpoint of the study is weight loss at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after TB. A subgroup analysis evaluates the effect of the length of the common channel. Secondary endpoints include impact on obesity related comorbidities (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, gastroesophageal reflux) as well as safety.

Read the detailed description

Prospective data base of 100 consecutive morbidly obese patients who had undergone transit bipartition (TB, also termed "Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal bypass") after a previous sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Inclusion criteria were TB for excess weight loss (EWL) < 50% ≥ 12 months post LSG or weight recidivism of > 5 kg/qm with a body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/qm. Patients with endocrine disorders other than type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), major psychiatric disorders, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) III and higher or pregnant patients were excluded from the study. Data were prospectively collected in strictly pseudonymous form. Follow up time points were at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months following TB. The primary endpoint of the study is weight loss at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after TB. A subgroup analysis evaluates the effect of the length of the common channel. Secondary endpoints include impact on obesity related comorbidities such as T2D, hypertension, sleep apnea, gastroesophageal reflux as well as safety.

What is being measured

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

  1. percent excess weight loss (EWL)

    preoperative weight-current weight / preoperative weight-ideal weight x 100 (ideal weight defined as BMI 25 kg/qm

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. number of patients with improvement of type 2 diabetes

    number of patients with HbA1c <6 %, fasting blood glucose <100 mg/dL in the absence of antidiabetic medications

    Measured: 12 months

  2. number of patients with improvement of gastro-esophageal reflux (GERD)

    number of patients with no GERD symptoms, reflux symptom score (RSI) < 13 in the absence of medication

    Measured: 12 months

  3. number of patients with improvement of hypertension

    number of patients with normotensive blood pressure (<120/80 mmHg) in the absence of antihypertensive medication

    Measured: 12 months

  4. number of patients with improvement of sleep apnoea

    number of patients with discontinued use of sleep apnea treatment (continuous positive airway pressure - CPAP) based on improved symptoms and Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) screening.

    Measured: 12 months

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?

percent excess weight loss (EWL) (time frame: 12 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 4 Mar 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
