About this study

Official title: Visualizing Beta Cells in Patients With Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia After Bariatric Surgery

In order to evaluate the difference in beta cell mass in patients with and without hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia after Roux en Y gastric bypass (RYGB) investigators aim to compare quantitative PET imaging of the pancreas between these patient groups.

These highly relevant data will provide investigators with more information on the possible role of beta cell mass in the mechanisms of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia bariatric surgery.

Being tested
GLP-1R PET
Medical subject headings
Obesity, Congenital Hyperinsulinism

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GLP-1R PET in people with Obesity and Hypoglycemia Post Gastric Bypass Surgery, 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 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pancreatic uptake of 68Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 (time frame: baseline). 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 2024.
