U.S., Sept. 23 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07186959) titled 'EGPSS for Weight Management in an in Vivo Human Model' on Sept. 11.
Brief Summary: ndoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies (EBMTs) have introduced more convenient, minimally invasive, and safe approaches to weight management. Mucosal ablation of the gastric fundus has been reported to limit fundic expansion and promote satiety; however, ablation can cause perforation, infection, bleeding, and other complications.
