Study Overview
Brief Summary
Evaluate the preliminary effectiveness and safety of the Gastric Bypass Stent System in treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Detailed Description
The Gastric Bypass Stent System is intended to be used in Patients with Diagnosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, Proton density fat fraction measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI-PDFF) ≥8%. In this pivotal, prospective, single-arm clinical investigation the Sponsor seeks to demonstrate the safety and performance of the Gastric Bypass Stent System in Treatment of Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
