About this study

Analyze the effect of meal pattern (meal number, frequency, and form) on satiety, gut peptides, insulin, and glucose levels in individuals before and 12-15 months after gastric bypass surgery (GBP).

Read the detailed description

The main goal is to study the effect of meal number, size and texture on metabolism and incretin levels after GBP. Patients will be studied before GBP (T0) and 12-15 months after GBP (T1). At T0 and T1, patients will come for 2 study days for 8 hours: On one study day, a single meal will be served, on the second study day, three small isocaloric meals, with the order of the conditions randomly assigned. The total amount of calories and the overall nutrient composition will be equivalent between conditions. The meals will be either all solid or all liquid. Patients enrolled in the study will be randomly assigned to solid or liquid test meals.

Gastric emptying will be measured by the acetaminophen test.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in gut peptides after gastric bypass, during either a liquid or solid meal, or single or multiple isocaloric meals.

    Measured: 1 month before GBP Surgery, and 12-15 months post surgery

  2. Changes in diet induced thermogenesis after gastric bypass, during either a liquid or solid meal, or single or multiple isocaloric meals.

    Measured: 1 month before GBP surgery, and 12-15 months post surgery

  3. Changes in insulin levels after gastric bypass, during either a liquid or solid meal, or single or multiple isocaloric meals.

    Measured: 1 month before GBP surgery, 12-15 months post surgery

  4. Changes in glucose levels after gastric bypass, during either a liquid or solid meal, or single or multiple isocaloric meals.

    Measured: 1 month before GBP , 12-15 months post GBP

  5. Changes in satiety after gastric bypass, during either a liquid or solid meal, or single or multiple isocaloric meals.

    Measured: 1 month before GBP, 12-15 months post GBP

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Liquid Meal and Solid Meal in people with Gastric Bypass Surgery and Obesity, run by St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center 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 1 inclusion and 0 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 29 Dec 2016. 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?

Changes in gut peptides after gastric bypass, during either a liquid or solid meal, or single or multiple isocaloric meals. (time frame: 1 month before GBP Surgery, and 12-15 months post surgery). The study lists 5 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 29 Dec 2016.
