Recruiting studies
- NCT04411823Recruiting
Predicting reflux after stomach sleeve surgery
This trial looks at how to predict who will develop acid reflux after a “stomach sleeve” operation. It may help doctors choose the safest plan before surgery and better prevent reflux afterward.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03407833Enrolling by invitation
Study changes in the body after weight, gut, or liver treatment
This study looks at how the body’s insulin-sensitivity (how well your body uses sugar/insulin) and organ function change after certain medical procedures. It may help researchers understand why some people improve after surgery or liver transplant and guide future care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT04268849RecruitingPhase 3
IV vs oral iron after weight-loss surgery
This Phase 3 study compares taking iron through an IV versus by mouth to treat iron-deficiency anemia after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. The goal is to see which method works better and is safer for improving iron levels and blood counts.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04839614Recruiting
Weight-loss surgery plus uterus surgery for certain uterine lining conditions
This trial tests doing weight-loss surgery at the same time as laparoscopic uterus (womb) surgery for people with certain early uterine lining conditions. It may help lower risk from severe obesity while treating the uterine condition.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02166372Recruiting
Testing weight-loss surgery vs standard care for type 2 diabetes
This study compares people with type 2 diabetes and higher body weight who meet criteria for metabolic (weight-loss) surgery versus people with mild obesity who do not. It aims to see whether surgery improves diabetes-related outcomes more than usual medical care.
Taoyuan CityAges 20–67 - NCT07297342Recruiting
Comparing ways to use the 'Get Ready' app for weight loss surgery
This study compares two ways of using a smartphone app called 'Get Ready' to help people follow their pre-surgery plan before weight loss surgery. It aims to see which approach helps patients stay on track better.
GeelAges Any age - NCT04962776RecruitingPhase 4
Carb plus nitrate drinks before gynecologic surgery
This trial compares two pre-surgery drink plans: a low-sugar/low-concentration carbohydrate drink plus nitrates versus a carbohydrate drink alone. It aims to see which plan works better for patients having open gynecologic surgery.
CairoAges 18–60 - NCT07637357Recruiting
How anesthesia affects thinking after weight-loss surgery
This study looks at how different types of anesthesia used during sleeve gastrectomy (a weight-loss surgery) may affect your memory and thinking skills after the operation. Researchers want to understand which anesthesia approach is safest for your brain.

- How do I know if I qualify for a bariatric surgery patients trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
