What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This trial compares two versions of a procedure called TORe, which is used to help people who have regained weight after gastric bypass surgery. One version is the classic TORe, and the other is a newer version called ESD-TORe. The study will look at which one leads to more weight loss and is safer. About 70 adults who have had gastric bypass and regained weight will take part.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Endoscopic procedure (TORe or ESD-TORe)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show which version of the TORe procedure is better for helping people lose weight after gastric bypass, potentially leading to a more effective and safer standard treatment.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (70 people) comparing two similar procedures. It may not find a clear winner, and results might not apply to everyone. As with any procedure, there are risks like bleeding or infection.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

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 70 people

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

Started

Oct 2023

Expected to finish

Apr 2027

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: * Adult patients with history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and weight regain * Dilated gastrojejunal anastamosis as diagnosed on endoscopy * Patients undergoing standard of care for treatment of obesity with endoscopic revisional procedure (a.k.a. TORe) who are enrolled in the GI Bariatric Endoscopy program and clinic at the study site Exclusion Criteria: * Prior revision of gastric bypass * Active and uncontrolled gastro-esophageal reflux disease defined as ≥ grade C esophagitis * Active untreated Helicobacter pylori infection * Malignancy newly diagnosed by endoscopy * Upper gastro-intestinal conditions such as ulcers, polyps, gastric varices, strictures, congenital or acquired intestinal telangiectasia or other abnormalities that preclude completion of TORe * Presence of gastrogastric or gastroenteric fistula * Inability to undergo general anesthesia * Participating in another ongoing clinical trial of an investigational weight loss drug or device * Active pregnancy * Use of anticoagulation therapy or P2Y12 inhibitors which cannot be discontinued for the time frame surrounding the procedure * Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus * Unwillingness to comply with standard post-TORe dietary guidelines and follow-up care * Any other anatomical, technical or otherwise factor that limits the ability of the endoscopist to perform either E-TORe or c-TORe * Any additional factor, which in the investigator's opinion, might jeopardize the subject's safety or compliance with the trial protocol
