Who cannot join

  • Patients with abnormal thyroid, renal function, known malabsorption syndrome or a seizure disorder requiring anti epileptic therapy, and/or elevation of liver enzymes three times above the normal limit.
  • Patients should not have significant secondary complications from diabetes that would preclude undergoing gastric by-pass surgery. This would include significant psychiatric, renal or neurological, or known active coronary artery disease.

About this study

The objective of this study is to investigate the different mechanisms by which Gastric Bypass (GBP), laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) affect glucose control. We wish to understand the role of weight loss versus changes in gut peptides in the short and long term in morbidly obese patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus after GBP, LAGB or VSG. The 2 surgical groups will be compared at 10% equivalent weight loss and at after surgery in terms of gut hormones levels, insulin secretion and glucose control.

Read the detailed description

The mechanisms of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) remission after gastric bypass surgery (GBP) are unclear. The levels of the gut hormones incretins and their effect on insulin secretion, which is impaired in T2DM, markedly increase after GBP. The anatomical changes of GBP, rather than weight loss, seem to be responsible for the changes of incretins. The objective of this proposal is to investigate the different mechanisms by which GBP, laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) affect glucose control. We wish to understand the role of weight loss versus changes in gut peptides in the short and long term in morbidly patients with T2DM after GBP, LAGB or VSG.

AIM 1: Will study the short term changes of incretins levels and effect in obese individuals with T2DM after GBP, LAGB or VSG, before and 1 month after GBP or before and after equivalent weight loss after LAGB or VSG.

AIM 2: Will study the long-term (12 and 24 months after surgery) changes in the incretin effect on insulin secretion, in patients with T2DM after GBP, LAGB or VSG.

AIM 3: Will study the changes of insulin secretion to IV glucose (AIRg) and insulin sensitivity (Si), measured by the minimal model, in patients with T2DM after GBP, VSG or LAGB, before and at 24 months after the surgery, at weight stability under condition of controlled diet.

What participants receive

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

  • Roux-en-Y Gastric BypassProcedure or surgery

    A surgical technique in which the stomach is stapled into a smaller pouch and then attached directly to the small intestine, bypassing the rest of the original stomach. The goal of the surgery is weight loss.

  • Laparoscopic adjustable gastric bandingProcedure or surgery

    A surgical technique in which an inflatable silicone device placed around the top portion of the stomach, creating a smaller gastric pouch. The goal of the surgery is weight loss.

  • Vertical Sleeve GastrectomyProcedure or surgery

    A surgical technique in which a large portion of the stomach is removed, leaving only a smaller gastric pouch. The goal of the surgery is weight loss.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in insulin secretion between groups.

    The investigators will assess insulin secretion in response to oral and intravenous nutrient and hormonal stimuli in the three groups.

    Measured: 0 - 48 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Difference in Incretin hormone response between groups.

    The investigators will assess the endogenous incretin response to oral glucose stimulus after GBP.

    Measured: 0 - 48 months after surgery

  2. Difference in Body composition between groups

    The investigators will assess body composition (fat mass and fat distribution) in the 3 groups.

    Measured: 0 - 48 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding and Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Blandine Laferrere 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 11 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 1 Feb 2017. 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?

Difference in insulin secretion between groups. (time frame: 0 - 48 months after surgery). 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 Feb 2017.
