About this study

Official title: Endoscopic Weight Loss Therapy: Clinical Outcomes Over One Year of Follow-up

This 12-months long pilot study will include patients undergoing an endoscopic procedure (endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty [ESG] or transoral outlet reduction [TORe]) as clinically indicated, and subsequent follow up clinic visits for up to one year.

Read the detailed description

The purpose the research is to better understand the effects of endoscopic bariatric therapy (EBT) on the weight change, hormonal changes and changes in the quality of life parameters for patients undergoing endoscopic bariatric procedures.

The primary research procedures are:

  • EBT procedure (endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty [ESG] or transoral outlet reduction [TORe])
  • Behavioral intervention consisting of diet therapy, exercise therapy, and behavior modification
  • Collection of blood to evaluate changes in hormonal profiles

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in body weight after various endoscopic bariatric therapies

    The investigators will compare mean percentage total body weight loss to baseline, at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year post procedure.

    Measured: Baseline/pre-procedure, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year post procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in hormonal profiles after various endoscopic bariatric therapies

    Repeated blood draws will be performed, and the following hormones will be measured: ghrelin, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), peptide YY (PYY), gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), and oxyntomodulin. We will compare changes over time in hormonal levels after EBT to baseline, 3 months, and 6 months post-procedure.

    Measured: Baseline/pre-procedure, 3 months, 6 months
