Bariatric Embolization of Arteries With Imaging Visible Embolics
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Bariatric Embolization of Arteries with imaging visible Embolics for Obesity and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The BEATLES study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, double-blinded, randomized, sham-controlled study that will assess the impact of bariatric embolization on the systemic levels of obesity-related hormones and, as a consequence, on weight loss. The goal of this study is to help treat obesity combining a lifestyle program and a minimally invasive, angiographic (i.e., through blood vessels) approach.

Timeline
Interventions
bariatric embolization will be performed using tiny (100-200 μm), radiopaque (visible on X-ray) beads (referred to as BTG-001933) in order to suppress the body's signals for feeling hungry, which we predict will lead to weight loss.
