  • Congenital or acquired abnormalities of the upper GI tract, e.g. stenosis
  • Subjects with or a history of coagulopathy, upper gastro-intestinal bleeding conditions such as esophageal or gastric varices, congenital or acquired intestinal telangiectasia
  • Chronic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) or aspirin treatment (Subjects unable to discontinue NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) during the implant period)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to explore short and longer-term effects of the Endobarrier™ implantation on insulin resistance and beta-cell function assessed by repeated Botnia clamps. In addition changes in gut peptides and gut permeability after implantation of a removable duodeno-jejunal bypass device to induce diabetes remission in obese subjects with sub-optimally controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus will be determined. Further changes in body weight and body composition, the change in global cardiovascular risk from baseline to 12 months, estimated using the UKPDS risk engine will be recorded.
Detailed Description
Obesity and diabetes probably represent the most challenging threat to public health in the 21st century. Obesity has multiple deleterious effects on health, significantly increasing the risk of fatal and non-fatal diseases including type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Bariatric surgery is a well-established method for the treatment of morbid obesity and has increasingly been recognized as an effective, long-lasting treatment option for T2DM. Recently a potential, non-invasive alternative to bariatric surgery, a duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (EndoBarrierTM) has been introduced. It is an endoscopically implantable and removable device that prevents contact between partially digested nutrients and the proximal intestine. This device was shown to reduce body weight and to improve glycaemic control in subjects with diabetes. Small pilot studies suggested a change in incretin levels, similar to that observed after gastric surgery with an improvement of insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. To better understand and characterize the hormonal and/or metabolic effects after the implantation and removal of the EndoBarrierTM, this monocentric, prospective, trial is being performed. The primary objective of this study is to clarify the changes in gut peptides and gut permeability after implantation the EndoBarrierTM in obese subjects with sub-optimally controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus. Additionally, the investigators aim to determine the changes in body weight and measure of adiposity, the change in global cardiovascular risk from baseline to 12 months as well as the changes in insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function over time.
