Clinical Trial Summary

Investigators postulate that the metabolic effects of LSG would be augmented with the use of liraglutide leading to additional excess weight loss, improved glucose homeostasis, decreased intrapancreatic and intrahepatic fat than either of them individually. However there are no studies till date which have evaluated the combined effects of two modalities of weight loss on the above mentioned parameters. This study plans to compare the effects of liraglutide in post- LSG obese patients in a placebo controlled design.


Clinical Trial Description

Various studies have shown that bariatric surgery is associated with significant durable weight loss with associated improvement in obesity related comorbidities and quality of life. The degree of effect on obesity related comorbidities depends on the bariatric surgery approach, typically classified as restrictive and/or malabsorptive effect. Data from International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Diseases states that most common surgical procedures being performed are Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (45%), sleeve gastrectomy(37%), adjustable gastric banding(10%) and biliopancreatic division with or without duodenal switch(2.5%)5. . LSG is technically a simpler procedure compared to RYGB with lesser operative and long term nutritional complications. The mechanism for weight loss in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is gastric restriction and possible changes in gut hormones resulting from higher level of GLP-1, and lower levels of ghrelin, as a consequence of resection of gastric fundus.

Therefore,investigators postulate that the metabolic effects of LSG would be augmented with the use of liraglutide leading to additional excess weight loss, improved glucose homeostasis, decreased intrapancreatic and intrahepatic fat than either of them individually. However there are no studies till date which have evaluated the combined effects of two modalities of weight loss on the above mentioned parameters. This study plans to compare the effects of liraglutide in post- LSG obese participants in a placebo controlled design. ;
