Can a new stomach and gut bypass surgery tackle obesity and diabetes?

NCT ID NCT07765758

First seen Aug 14, 2026 ยท Last updated Aug 14, 2026

Summary

This trial tests a new laparoscopic procedure called SIBS, which combines sleeve gastrectomy with a side-to-side connection between the duodenum and ileum, without cutting the duodenum. The goal is to see if the surgery is safe and technically feasible in adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes. Participants will be followed for up to 12 months to track weight loss, blood sugar control, and any complications.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Stapled Intact-Duodenum Bipartition with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SIBS), a laparoscopic surgical procedure
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a safer, simpler bariatric surgery option that improves weight loss and blood sugar control in people with obesity and type 2 diabetes.
What could go wrong
This is an early, single-center study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Surgery carries risks like leaks, bleeding, or complications requiring further procedures.
