Detailed Description
FDA post-approval study designed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of ORBERA™ as an adjunct to weight reduction for obese adults (22 years of age and older) with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of ≥ 30 kg/m2 and BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2. Behavioral modification program in conjunction with endoscopic placement of a single ORBERA™ Intragastric Balloon, filled with saline to an inflation volume between 400cc and 700cc, for 26 weeks followed by endoscopic ORBERA™ removal. Outcomes include the mean percent Total Body Weight Loss (%TBWL), changes in weight, device and procedure-related AEs and SAEs: gastric ulcers, esophageal injury, placement and removal related SAEs, early device removals, and balloon deflations.
Study Design
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [26 weeks]
Incidence of device and procedure-related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) after 26 weeks of ORBERA™ treatment will be no greater than 15%
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of Total Body Weight Loss (%TBWL) [26 weeks]
To demonstrate that the mean percent Total Body Weight Loss (%TBWL) will be greater than 7.5% at ORBERA™ treatment conclusion (study week 26)
- Adverse Events (AEs) [12 months]
To continuously assess the safety of ORBERA™ by summarizing the occurrence of device- and procedure-related Adverse Events (AEs)
- Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [12 months]
To continuously assess the safety of ORBERA™ by summarizing the occurrence of the following device- or procedure-related SAEs: gastric ulcers, esophageal injury, placement and removal related SAEs, early device removals, and balloon deflations
- Total Body Weight Loss (%TBWL) [12 months]
To estimate the %TBWL at each time point
- Percentage of Excess Weight Loss (%EWL) [12 months]
To estimate the percent Excess Weight Loss (%EWL) at each time point, assuming an ideal weight based on having a BMI of 25 kg/m2
- Body Mass Index [12 months]
To estimate the change from baseline in BMI at each time point
- Nutritional Appetite Questionnaire [12 months]
Will collect data on appetite, feelings of fullness, taste, and eating habits through a patient questionnaire.
- Subject Treatment Satisfaction Survey [12 months]
The Subject Satisfaction Survey will collect data on the subject's level of satisfaction with ORBERA treatment and their recommendation of ORBERA™ treatment to others.
