Nerve-Cutting surgery may boost diabetes remission after gastric bypass
NCT ID NCT07278115
First seen Jan 06, 2026
Summary
This study compares standard gastric bypass surgery to bypass plus cutting the vagus nerve (truncal vagotomy) in 40 adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if the added nerve cut improves diabetes remission rates at one year. Participants are randomly assigned and neither they nor their doctors know which procedure they received.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery with or without truncal vagotomy
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a more effective surgical approach for lasting type 2 diabetes remission in people with obesity.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 40 participants. Adding vagotomy may not improve outcomes and could increase surgical risks like digestive issues or nutritional problems.
