This trial tests a procedure called Endoscopic Band Ligation, which uses a small device to place bands in the stomach to help control blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. It might be an option for those who have not achieved good glucose control with oral medications alone and do not need insulin yet.
This study tests whether two weight-loss operations (sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) can improve type 2 diabetes. It may help people with higher body weight and diabetes control, but it also requires meeting safety and health criteria.
This trial tests a type of weight-loss surgery (called metabolic surgery) to see if it helps people with type 2 diabetes achieve better blood sugar control. It's for people who have struggled to manage their diabetes with standard treatments and have a BMI between 30 and 35.
This trial tests whether a specific type of weight loss surgery can help people with type 2 diabetes stop needing diabetes medication. It is for people with a very high body mass index (BMI over 45) who are currently on diabetes pills or insulin.
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.
This Phase 3 trial compares sleeve gastrectomy versus a different bypass-style operation to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It may help some people lower blood sugar and diabetes medication needs, but you must meet specific safety and health criteria.
