New surgery may control reflux as well as standard bypass in obese patients

NCT ID NCT07158008

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 36 times

Summary

This study compares two weight-loss surgeries—Nissen-Sleeve Gastrectomy (N-SG) and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB)—in 560 people with severe obesity and acid reflux (GERD). The goal is to see if N-SG controls reflux symptoms as well as RYGB one year after surgery. Both procedures aim to help patients lose weight and reduce reflux, but N-SG preserves more natural digestion. The results could help doctors choose the best surgery for each patient.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Nissen-Sleeve Gastrectomy (N-SG) and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) surgical procedures

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that a newer, less-altering surgery (N-SG) controls reflux as well as the standard bypass, giving patients more surgical options.

What could go wrong

This is a mid-stage trial with 560 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Both surgeries carry risks like infection, nutritional issues, or complications.
