Testing a bypass revision surgery for weight regain
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a specific stomach bypass revision (a “distal gastric bypass”) can improve outcomes after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass when weight loss was not enough or weight was regained. You may be considered if you meet weight-loss goals criteria and can join follow-up and possibly surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial studies a specific type of metabolic (weight-related) surgery for people whose sleeve gastrectomy did not lead to enough weight loss or has caused significant weight regain. It may help improve long-term weight and related health problems.
This study looks at how digestion works after weight-loss surgery. Volunteers may be people with obesity or those who had gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy at least a year ago. The goal is to learn more about gut function after surgery.
This study tests if a combination of two drugs (naltrexone and bupropion) with or without a very low-calorie ketogenic diet can help people who have regained weight after gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. It may offer a non-surgical option to manage weight regain.
This trial compares a new version of gastric bypass (with a longer 150cm bypassed segment) to the standard Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to see which leads to better weight loss and health improvements. It is for people with severe obesity who are already scheduled for surgery and want to help find the best procedure.
This study looks at which revision surgery works best after a prior sleeve stomach operation that didn’t last. It tests switching to one of three procedures to help with weight regain, and it excludes more severe acid reflux cases.
This trial compares two surgical options for people who have regained weight or didn't lose enough after a sleeve gastrectomy. It tests whether adding a ring to the standard revision surgery helps with long-term weight loss.
