Trial summary

Study on outcomes on bariatric surgery, particularly in terms of metabolic parameters in the UAE is scant. Also Genetic data from this population is limited and hence a study on genetic determinants of response to bariatric surgery is highly warranted. Read more about this study

About this study

Study on outcomes on bariatric surgery, particularly in terms of metabolic parameters in the UAE is scant. Also Genetic data from this population is limited and hence a study on genetic determinants of response to bariatric surgery is highly warranted. This study is expected to provide a better understanding of the causes of severe obesity in the UAE population and help us to evaluate the efficacy of Bariatric surgery in patients with genetic forms of obesity. The information generated will allow us to better advise patients regarding the risks and benefits of Bariatric Surgery as a treatment.

Objective To investigate the metabolic outcomes of bariatric surgery, to study the prevalence of monogenic forms of obesity among a cohort of patients with morbid obesity who underwent bariatric surgery and to compare the outcomes of Bariatric surgery in patients with and without underlying genetic condition.

Read the detailed description

Prior to participation, the nature of the study, the objectives of the study, the study procedures and any known or likely risks including specific information pertaining to the genetic testing technology will be explained to the subjects by the study team.

Written informed consent will be obtained after providing an information sheet with details regarding the study including the genetic analysis performed. The information sheet with consent form will be available in Arabic and English. The participant (or parent/guardian or legally authorised representative, as appropriate) must personally sign and date the latest approved version of the ICF before any study specific procedures are performed.

A copy of the signed ICF will be kept in the medical record, with the study data, and provided to the participant. The original signed ICF will be retained at the study site for 10 years after the end of the project and should be conveyed to ICLDC, to be stored electronically, for its records.

Each subject will be informed that their source medical records may be checked by representatives from the responsible authorities (ICLDC REC, ADHRTC, DOH) with applicable regulations. However, they will be made aware that all information will be treated with confidentiality.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bariatric Surgery Candidate, run by Imperial College London Diabetes Centre at 1 site in United Arab Emirates.

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 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 1 Dec 2021. 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 Arab Emirates. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Alia Tikriti (aaltikriti@icldc.ae), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in weight (time frame: 3 months post BS). The study lists 12 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Dec 2021.
