Stitching stomachs shut: new fix for failed Weight-Loss surgery?

NCT ID NCT02048033

Summary

This study tested a less invasive procedure to help people who regained weight after gastric bypass surgery. Researchers compared a technique using an endoscopic 'stitch' to tighten the stomach opening against standard non-surgical care. The goal was to see if the stitching procedure was more effective for weight loss, safer, and improved quality of life. The trial was terminated early and did not complete its planned comparison.
