Test whether a stomach procedure improves diabetes sugar control
Part of Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial studies whether an oral procedure called per oral pyloromyotomy (POP) helps improve blood sugar control in people with gastroparesis (slow stomach emptying). It likely helps by improving how the stomach digests food, which can make blood sugar readings more stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older
- You have gastroparesis (slow stomach emptying) confirmed by a stomach emptying test and no blockage
- Your average HbA1c is greater than 7.5% over the last 3 months (a diabetes blood test)
- You can complete all study steps
- You are able to use a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor during the study
- You do not have an insulin pump and you do not already use a CGM

This study tests whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help manage blood sugar in people with diabetes and gastroparesis (slow stomach emptying). If you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and stomach symptoms, this could help doctors better understand your glucose patterns.
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure called G-POEM (gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy) to improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes and severe gastroparesis (delayed stomach emptying). It is for patients whose gastroparesis has not improved with standard treatments and who are willing to use a continuous glucose monitor.
This study looks at whether abnormal function of the pyloric “stomach outlet” muscle is linked to gastroparesis symptoms (slow stomach emptying). It may help researchers better understand what causes symptoms and guide future treatments.
This study looks at how diabetes affects stomach function by measuring stomach activity with special tests. It may help doctors better understand and treat stomach problems in people with diabetes.
This study follows people with drug-refractory gastroparesis (stomach paralysis symptoms that don’t improve with usual medicines) to better understand how symptoms and nutrition change over time. Your information may help researchers understand patterns that could improve care.
This trial compares a new stomach test (Body Surface Gastric Mapping) with a standard one (Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy) to see which helps doctors better manage gastroparesis. You may join if you have ongoing stomach symptoms like nausea or vomiting and have been referred for a stomach emptying test.
