Prospective Metabolic Surgery in T2DM Chinese Subjects
Prospective Metabolic Surgery in T2DM Chinese Subjects
The primary goal of this study is to assess impact of metabolic surgery on glycemic control
 in diabetic patients.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the impact of metabolic surgery (Roux-en-Y
 gastric bypass [RYGB] or sleeve gastrectomy [SG]) on composite measure of glycemic control at
 2 years post surgery in a Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) cohort of subjects.
Inclusion Criteria:

 5. Able and willing to comply with procedures required by the protocol; and

 6. Able to comprehend and sign or, if illiterate, leave their thumb impression on the
 study ICD.

 Exclusion Criteria:

 1. History of T2DM for a duration > 10 years;

 2. History of drug and/or alcohol abuse within 2 years of Screening Visit;

 3. Any previous major GI surgery (e.g., any GI surgery with a resection, etc.). Previous
 GI surgery allowed include: appendectomy, gall bladder surgery, liver biopsies, and
 endoscopic procedures;

 4. Scheduled concurrent surgical, non-endoscopy, procedure from Visit 1 through the end
 of Visit 3;

 5. Women of childbearing potential who are pregnant or lactating at the time of

 gastric ulceration, duodenal ulceration, or specific inflammation such as Crohn's
 disease or ulcerative colitis that have been active within the past 10 years;

 2. End stage renal disease;

 3. Abnormal results from glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GADA) or
 protein tyrosine phosphatase-like protein (IA-2A) testing; or

 4. Immunocompromised such as that resulting from chronic oral steroid use, cancer
 chemotherapeutic agents, or immune deficiency disorders;

 8. Participation in any other clinical study (not to include registries or survey-only
 studies) within 30-days or 5 half-lives of an investigational drug (which ever is
 longer), of Visit 1 (Screening Visit) and for the duration of the study.
