This could be explained by weight loss or by changes of nutrient absorption or gut hormone secretion. The comparison of glucose metabolism in patients undergoing malabsorptive or mechanical procedures will clarify this matter. EndoBarrier is an endoscopically delivered device that mimics malabsorptive surgical procedures while the endoscopically placed intragastric balloon induces weight loss with a mechanical action.\n\nThe present study hypothesis is that the bypass of the first portion of the intestine obtained with the EndoBarrier will be more effective in improving glucose metabolism than the reduction of food intake obtained with the intragastric balloon. Since similar weight loss is expected in the two groups, the study will aid in understanding the mechanisms behind the metabolic improvement seeing after intestine bypass.', 'detailedDescription': "Bariatric surgery is an effective therapy for obesity. Malabsorption-based surgical techniques (excluding the first part of the gastrointestinal tract from the alimentary circuit) are also effective in correcting T2D, even before any significant weight loss has occurred. Proposed mechanisms to explain this beneficial effect include caloric restriction, altered secretion of gut hormones due to duodenal exclusion or due to contact of undigested food with the jejunal mucosa, pancreatic islet hyperfunction, changes of intestinal flora, mucosal inflammation, and/or changes in the biliary acid re-circulation.\n\nEndoBarrier is an endoscopically delivered device that mimics malabsorptive surgical procedures while the endoscopically placed intragastric balloon induces weight loss with a mechanical action.\n\nThe present study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. It will compare the metabolic compensation between patient treated with EndoBarrier and patient treated with Intragastric Balloon.\n\nThe aims will be: comparison of glycemic control as measured by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), change in oral hypoglycemic drug consumption and body loss from baseline and during follow up in the two groups; evaluation of mechanisms implicated in glycemic control by measuring basal and stimulated insular hormones, glucose levels and gastrointestinal hormones; creation of a bio-bank and dedicated database to collect biological samples for further future studies.\n\nObese adult T2D patients (BMI ≥ 30) with diabetes duration \\<10 years will be randomized to receive either EndoBarrier (n=45) or Intragastric Balloon (n=45). The devices will be implanted and kept in place for the first 12 months of study and then removed. Clinical and biochemical data will be collected every 3 months during the 12 months of implant and for the subsequent 12 months after removal.\n\nStatistics describing variables at baseline, at subsequent visits and at the end of the study will be produced for both groups of patients. The Student's t-test will be used for a cross-sectional analysis while the mixed model system will be used for longitudinal observations. Multivariate analysis will also be applied to better characterize differences that may be seen between the two groups."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '60 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adults (18-60 year old)\n* Type 2 Diabetes diagnosed less than 10 years ago\n* Obesity (BMI \\> 30)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* pregnancy\n* inflammatory bowel disease\n* peptic ulcer\n* gastrointestinal disease preventing device positioning\n* pancreatitis,\n* coronary artery disease\n* symptomatic pulmonary disease\n* infection at the time of device placement,\n* high risk of gastrointestinal bleeding (coagulopathy, bleeding diathesis, anti-coagulant therapy, Non-Steroid Anti-Inflammatory Drugs)\n* altered GI anatomy that could affect device placement\n* contraindication of positioning of the devices as per technical description of the producer\n* C-peptide negative diabetes\n* failure to understand the study protocol or not willing to undergo planned follow-up'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01848795', 'briefTitle': 'EndoBarrier Versus Intragastric Balloon in Obese Diabetic Patients', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'The Mediterranean Institute for Transplantation and Advanced Specialized Therapies'}, 'officialTitle': 'Study of Metabolic Effects of EndoBarrier Versus Intragastric Balloon in Obese Patients With Type 2 Diabetes.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'IRRB/30/10'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'EndoBarrier Gastrointestinal Liner', 'description': 'The treatment in this arm is the endoscopic positioning of the EndoBarrier Gastrointestinal Liner and follow up.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: EndoBarrier Gastrointestinal Liner']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Intragastric Balloon', 'description': 'The treatment in this arm is the endoscopic positioning of the intragastric balloon (Easy life balloon) as a comparator and follow up.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Easy life balloon']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'EndoBarrier Gastrointestinal Liner', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['produced by GI Dynamics'], 'description': 'Endoscopy placement of EndoBarrier, and clinical and biochemical follow up', 'armGroupLabels': ['EndoBarrier Gastrointestinal Liner']}, {'name': 'Easy life balloon', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Endoscopy placement of EndoBarrier, and clinical and biochemical follow up', 'armGroupLabels': ['Intragastric Balloon']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '90127', 'city': 'Palermo', 'state': 'Italy', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Italy', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Anna Casu, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'acasu@ismett.edu', 'phone': '+390912192111'}, {'name': 'Mario Traina, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'mtraina@ismett.edu', 'phone': '+390912192111'}, {'name': 'Anna Casu, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR'}, {'name': 'Mario Traina, MD', 'role': 'SUB_INVESTIGATOR'}], 'facility': 'ISMETT', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 38.1166, 'lon': 13.3636}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Anna Casu, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'acasu@ismett.edu', 'phone': '+390912192111'}, {'name': 'Mario Traina, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'mtraina@ismett.edu', 'phone': '+390912192111'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Anna Casu, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'The Mediterranean Institute for Transplantation and Advanced Specialized Therapies'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'The Mediterranean Institute for Transplantation and Advanced Specialized Therapies', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Diabetology Attending', 'investigatorFullName': 'Anna Casu', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'The Mediterranean Institute for Transplantation and Advanced Specialized Therapies'}}}}
