What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study investigates whether combining bariatric surgery with a GLP-1 receptor agonist (semaglutide) leads to greater and more sustained weight loss than surgery alone in people with obesity. Researchers will follow 400 participants across multiple centers in China for up to two years, measuring weight, metabolic health, and safety. The goal is to see if the combination can prevent the weight regain that sometimes occurs after surgery alone.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a combination of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and semaglutide injections
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a more effective long-term weight-loss strategy for people with obesity, reducing weight regain after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study without a control group receiving only surgery, so it is unclear how much benefit comes from the drug versus the procedure itself. Side effects from semaglutide, such as nausea or gastrointestinal issues, are possible.

Study facts

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 400 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Primary metabolic surgery candidates: Patients undergoing initial laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). 2. obesity:BMI ≥27.5 kg/m². 3. Metabolic comorbidities: Diagnosis of metabolic syndrome or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) meeting standard criteria. 4. Age range: 16-70 years (inclusive). 5. Informed consent: Willing participation with documented consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Recent GLP-1RA use: Treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists within 6 months preoperatively. 2. Prior bariatric surgery: History of any metabolic/bariatric surgical procedure. 3. Postoperative complications: Requiring reoperation for severe complications (e.g., hemorrhage, anastomotic leak). 4. Non-indicated candidates: Patients not meeting standard bariatric surgery indications. 5. Significant comorbidities: Advanced hepatic/renal dysfunction (Child-Pugh C or eGFR \<30 mL/min/1.73m²) Active malignancy (except non-melanoma skin cancers) Autoimmune disorders requiring immunosuppression Uncontrolled psychiatric conditions (e.g., active psychosis, severe depression)
