ReCET procedure
Sham procedure
Patients receive ReCET (Re-Cellularization via Electroporation Therapy), which is performed using the ReCET device. After which a 2 week isocaloric diet is followed, and then semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist is started.
Patients receive sham procedure, this consists of placing an Endogenex catheter, or a catheter with a similar circumference at the endoscopists discretion in the stomach and leaving it in place for 30 minutes. After which a 2 week isocaloric diet is followed, and then semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist is started
