NCT04494048
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The purpose of this registry study is to collect data through medical chart review and in patient visits on the efficacy and safety of various Endoscopic Bariatric therapies (EBTs). This is a retrospective and prospective, observational, medical chart review study for at least 6 standard of care visits up to 1 years after a subject consents for study participation.

Detailed Description

Endoscopic bariatric therapies such as intragastric balloons, space occupying EBTs, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), primary obesity surgery endolumenal (POSE), and small bowel interventions including gastrointestinal bypass sleeves, etc. are recommended alone or in conjunction with other weight loss treatment modules for patients who cannot or do not want to undergo conventional bariatric surgery or other therapies for obesity (with BMI ≥30 kg/m2) or BMI \>27 with comorbidities.

This research is being done in order to find out if endoscopic bariatric therapies work as well as, or better or worse than, other currently available treatment modules to achieve weight loss.

The study is to create a registry to analyze a longitudinal observational cohort of patients who have undergone endobariatric procedures. We will collect information through standard of practice visits and through chart review.

Laboratory data, patient characteristics, imaging, histology will be collected. In certain patients - after specific consent extra blood may be collected for research purposes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety of procedure measured by in the number of adverse events of procedureat baseline

Number of adverse events; Type (unexpected, expected, related, possibly related), frequency and intensity of adverse events at baseline

Change of weight of the various bariatric therapiesBaseline, 1 month, 6 months, and 1 year post procedure

Compare mean percentage total body weight loss achieved via various Endoscopic Bariatric Therapies compared to baseline, 1 month, 6 months and 1 . year post procedure. This will be calculated by measuring the patients weight on a scale and comparing it to their baseline weight pre procedure.

Safety of procedure measured by in the number of adverse events that occur within 30 daysWithin 30 days of the procedure

Number of adverse events; Type (unexpected, expected, related, possibly related)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Technical success of each bariatric therapy.through study completion at one year.

Technical success is the technical success of the procedure.

Change in the effect of Endoscopic Bariatric Therapies on refluxBaseline, 6 months,and 1 year post procedure

measuring change in ph measurement on ph manometry

Change and Improvement in comorbidities6 months, 1 year post procedure

measuring certain anthropometric measurements at baseline and at 6 months and one year. These include laboratory measurements (tryglicerides, LDL, A1C, Insulin)

Change in the effect of bariatric endoscopic procedure on individuals with fatty liver diseaseBaseline, 6 months,and 1 year post procedure

Measuring change in liver functions tests (on blood draw alanine alanine aminotransferase (ALT), AST (aspartate aminotransferase) )
