About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Gastroparesis focused on measuring Gastric Peroral Endoscopic Pyloromyotomy (G-POEM)
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Symptoms of chronic nausea or vomiting compatible with gastroparesis (idiopathic or diabetic) must be present for at least one year (does not have to be contiguous) prior to registration with mean total Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) score of ≥ 2.3
- Refractory gastroparesis, defined using our previously published data, as a failure to improve by at least 1 point on the GCSI scale over the last 6 months, despite an adequate trial of one or more standard prokinetics (metoclopramide, erythromycin, prucalopride), antinauseants ((5-hydroxytryptamine receptor antagonists (5-HT3) antagonists, promethazine, prochlorperazine, dronabinol)), or neuromodulators (mirtazapine, buspirone)
- Moderate to severe delay in gastric emptying, defined as >25% solid retained at 4 hours. Gastric emptying scintigraphy will be performed within 6 months of registration.
- No evidence of mechanical obstruction based on upper GI endoscopy or barium series within 2 years of registration
Exclusion Criteria:
- Another active disorder which could explain symptoms in the opinion of the investigator
- Gastric retention of solids at 4 hours < 25%
- Ongoing use of prokinetic agents (e.g. metoclopramide, erythromycin, prucalopride) or drugs that slow down gastric emptying (tricyclic antidepressants, anti-cholinergic agents and narcotics)
- Significant systemic illness such as chronic renal failure or liver disease as defined by Child-Pugh score of 10 or greater
- Poorly controlled diabetes with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of greater than 10% at time of screening
- New medications for gastroparesis-related symptoms started within 1 month prior to registration
- Pregnancy or nursing
- Failure to give informed consent
- Any other condition, which in the opinion of the investigator would impede compliance or hinder completion of the study

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
GCSI-DD change
The effect of GPOEM on nausea, early satiety, postprandial fullness, and upper abdominal pain as per changes in patient scoring in The American Neurogastroenterology and Motility Society Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index Daily Diary (ANMS GCSI-DD) which has been designed to assess symptoms associated with gastroparesis. Symptoms are rated as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), severe (3), very severe (4) scale of the worst severity of the symptom over the last 24 hours.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Change in Quality of Life as assessed by the Patient Assessment of Upper Gastrointestinal Disorders-Quality of Life scale
The effect of GPOEM on quality of life assessed by the Patient Assessment of Upper Gastrointestinal Disorders-Quality of Life (PAGI-QoL). The PAGI-QOL instrument consists of 30 items, each with response options based on a 6-point scale and with a recall period of the previous 2 weeks. The items are grouped into 5 dimensions: Daily Activities, Clothing, Diet and Food Habits, Relationship and Psychological Well-being and Distress. A score per dimension as well as a total score can be calculated. The PAGI-QOL scores range from 0 (lowest QoL) to 5 (highest QoL).

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the 12-month treatment effect of peroral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (G-POEM) vs. sham surgery in patients with gastroparesis that is not helped by medications and to analyze factors that may predict the outcome of the surgery.

Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy.
Intervention Description
Under propofol anesthesia, EndoFLIP will be used to assess pyloric diameter and distensibility, prior to and after G-POEM, performed by an endoscopist skilled in this technique. After the procedure, the patient will be observed in the hospital for 2 days. Patients will undergo an upper GI series the next day to rule out perforation. If the patient develops a complication from the procedure, he or she will be managed per standard clinical practice by the treating (unblinded) endoscopist.
Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
Sham Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy.
Intervention Description
Patients assigned to the sham procedure will be treated identically as above, except for the performance of the G-POEM. Endoscopy and EndoFLIP will be performed and sedation will be stopped when the upper endoscopy is completed. Since sham endoscopy is expected to take less time than G-POEM, the patient should remain in the endoscopy procedure room for a minimum of 30 minutes (including the time required to complete the upper endoscopy). After the procedure, the patient will be observed in the hospital for 2 days. All patients will undergo an upper GI series radiographic examination the next day to rule out perforation in order to maintain study blind.
