Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Feb 2024 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of this pilot prospective interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in allowing obese subjects (≥35 kg/m2) with end stage renal disease who need of kidney transplantation to reduce their BMI below 35 in order to be inserted in the waiting list BMI. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: Is the procedure effective in reducing BMI to the target level in 12 months? Which is the effect on weight loss, quality of life and obesity-related comorbidities? Participants will undergo ESG as per standard clinical practice and followed up to 12 months before transplantation and for 12 months after transplantation.
