First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a special magnet system that creates a new connection between the stomach and intestine without traditional surgery. It is designed for adults with obesity (BMI 30-50) who also have type 2 diabetes or have regained weight after a previous sleeve gastrectomy. The goal is to see if the magnets can be placed correctly, pass naturally, and form a lasting opening to help with weight loss and blood sugar control.
