New No-Scalpel fix for heartburn tested in 500 patients
NCT ID NCT07395219
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracks the safety and effectiveness of a procedure called TIF 2.0, which tightens the valve between the stomach and esophagus without any cuts. About 500 adults with acid reflux or throat reflux will be followed to see if their symptoms improve and if they can reduce or stop acid-reducing medications. The goal is to offer a less invasive option for long-term reflux control.
