Study summary

A prospective randomized clinical study of all morbidly obese patients undergoing SG, RYGB and OAGB, as primary bariatric procedures, was performed. Patients were randomly assigned into 3 groups: those patients undergoing SG, those ones undergoing RYGB and those ones undergoing OAGB. BMI, excess BMI loss (EBMIL) and remission of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), hypertension (HT) and dyslipidemia (DL) were assessed.

A prospective randomized clinical study of all morbidly obese patients undergoing SG, RYGB and OAGB, as primary bariatric procedures, was performed. Patients were randomly assigned into 3 groups: those patients undergoing Sleeve Gastrectomy, those ones undergoing Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and those ones undergoing One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass. Body Mass Index (BMI), excess BMI loss (EBMIL) and remission of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), hypertension (HT) and dyslipidemia (DL) were assessed.

Inclusion criteria

  • (BMI) >40 Kg/m2
  • BMI > 35 Kg/m2 with the presence of comorbidities associated to obesity
  • age older than 18 years
  • Patients willing to participate in the study and giving their written consent

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • patients undergoing other bariatric techniques than SG, RYGB and OAGB
  • Patients undergoing any other surgical procedure added to the bariatric surgery
  • patients with medical or surgical pathologies that at the discretion of the investigators do not allow their participation in the study
  • inability to understand the nature and purpose of the study and / or to accept written participation in the study
  • impossibility to comply with pre-established clinical follow-up.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

BMI (body mass index)

Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.

What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2010 to primary completion in Dec 2017, 90 months.

Of 23 phase 3 interventional studies under Weight Loss, half reached primary completion within 24 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 28. This study's 90 months is above that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 16, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
