Gastroparesis

This study tests two procedures—G-POEM and a gastric electrical stimulator—for people with severe gastroparesis (stomach paralysis) that hasn't improved with medication. Forty adults will be randomly assigned to one of two groups to compare safety and symptom relief. The goal is …

This study is testing a new device called Gastric Alimetry that records the stomach's electrical activity through electrodes placed on the belly. Researchers want to see if it can reliably detect abnormal stomach rhythms in people with conditions like gastroparesis and functional…

This early-stage trial tests a noninvasive device that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate nerves in the upper back. The goal is to reduce severe nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain in people with diabetic gastroparesis (stomach paralysis). About 48 adults with moderate-to-severe sy…

This pilot study from Mayo Clinic tests whether using a virtual reality headset can safely ease symptoms of gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach empties too slowly. Thirty adults with gastroparesis will try VR programs with games, meditation, and relaxation exercises. The…

This Phase 2 trial tests whether CIN-102 (deudomperidone) can reduce nausea in adults with idiopathic gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach empties slowly. Over 400 participants will take either 10 mg, 15 mg, or a placebo twice daily for 12 weeks. Researchers will track sy…

This study tests a procedure called per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) to see if it helps people with gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach empties too slowly. About 100 adults who have not improved with standard treatment will be randomly assigned to either the real procedure o…

This program allows people aged 12 and older with severe stomach or gut problems, like gastroparesis, to try domperidone when standard treatments have failed. The goal is to ease symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and severe indigestion. The drug is not FDA-approved but is availa…

This study uses MRI scans to look at the brain and upper digestive tract in people with gastroparesis and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand how the brain and gut interact in this condition. Researchers will compare stomach movements before and after meals. This…

This study creates a registry of people with gastroparesis—a condition where the stomach empties too slowly, causing nausea, vomiting, and pain—who have received a gastric electrical stimulation (GES) device. The goal is to collect long-term data to help researchers understand ho…

This study gives 20 healthy adults drinks containing sucrose (table sugar), glucose, fructose, or plain water, then measures how their bodies respond. Researchers track gut hormones, blood sugar, digestion speed, and other health markers. The goal is to understand the unique effe…

This study is a registry that will review medical records of 1,000 patients treated for benign or malignant gastrointestinal diseases between 2005 and 2030. Researchers will look at survival, symptoms like heartburn and swallowing trouble, and quality of life. The goal is to lear…

This study tests whether electrically stimulating a nerve in the ear can reach the internal vagus nerve, which controls stomach function. Researchers will measure nerve signals and stomach activity in 131 healthy volunteers and people with gastroparesis. The goal is to see if thi…

This study looks at how a device that electrically stimulates the stomach (gastric electrical stimulation) affects the vagus nerve and heart in people with gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach empties slowly. Researchers will measure heart rate variability and hormone lev…

This study looks at how the vagus nerve works in people with gastroparesis (stomach paralysis) who have a gastric electrical stimulator implanted. Researchers will use a non-invasive electrode patch on the neck to measure nerve signals and see if they relate to symptom relief. Th…

This study looks at whether cold or warm liquid food given through a tube affects how fast the stomach empties in adult intensive care patients. Researchers will measure stomach volume over time and check for issues like vomiting or diarrhea. The goal is to find out which tempera…

This study aimed to find out if two tests—EndoFLIP and antroduodenal manometry—could predict which patients with severe gastroparesis would benefit from a procedure called G-POEM. The plan was to measure stomach muscle activity and pressure before the procedure. However, the stud…

This study looks at how GLP-1 receptor agonists (like Ozempic or Wegovy) affect how fast the stomach empties before surgery. These drugs are used for weight loss and diabetes, but they slow stomach emptying, which could raise the risk of food or liquid entering the lungs during a…
