Procedure for gastroparesis in people with diabetes
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a procedure called G-POEM that may help with severe gastroparesis, where the stomach is slow to empty. It aims to improve blood sugar control and stomach symptoms for people with diabetes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Be 18 to 90 years old
- Have diabetes for at least 5 years and use insulin
- Have severe gastroparesis confirmed by a stomach emptying test
- Have tried other gastroparesis treatments without success
- Use a continuous glucose monitor during the study
- Not be on a closed-loop insulin pump system

This trial looks at a stomach procedure called G-POEM to help relieve symptoms of gastroparesis, which means the stomach empties too slowly. If you’re an adult with confirmed gastroparesis and have been referred for endoscopic treatment, you may be able to take part.
This trial compares two treatments for gastroparesis: a procedure called G-POEM (which opens the stomach's outlet valve) and a feeding tube (PEG-J) that bypasses the stomach. It aims to see which is better at helping food move through the stomach.
This study uses a non-invasive stomach-mapping test (BSGM) to see if a G-POEM procedure (a treatment for gastroparesis) works well. It may help doctors better understand how the stomach empties after the procedure.
This trial tests a new way to program an implanted device (Enterra®) to better treat severe nausea and vomiting caused by gastroparesis. If you have frequent nausea and vomiting despite other treatments, this study might help find a better setting for your device.
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 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.
