Impact of Per Oral Pyloromyotomy (POP) on Glycemic Control in Diabetes

January 30, 2024 updated by: Matthew Allemang

Impact of Endoscopic Per-Oral Pyloromyotomy (POP) on Glycemic Control in Gastroparesis Patients With Poorly Controlled Diabetes Mellitus

This study will assess changes in glycemic control in 40 patients with diabetes who undergo per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) for medically refractory gastroparesis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This will be a prospective study using HbA1c values and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to assess changes in glycemic control in patients with diabetes who undergo per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) for medically refractory gastroparesis. The study cohort will consist of 40 patients with poor glycemic control who undergo POP. The investigators propose a prospective cohort study using CGM to compare glycemic profiles before and after POP in patients with diabetic gastroparesis. The investigators hypothesize that patients will have improvement in glycemic control and reduced variation in blood glucose levels (% time in hypo/hyperglycemia) after undergoing POP. These results will aid in clinical decision making, and may indicate an earlier need for endoscopic intervention in patients with uncontrolled diabetes and gastroparesis.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Endoscopic Per-Oral Pyloromyotomy (POP)
The study cohort will include 40 patients with a HbA1c >7.5% with medically refractory gastroparesis who are scheduled to undergo POP. Each patient will undergo two 10-day periods of CGM at an interval of approximately seven months, one month prior to the procedure and six months after. Symptoms and diabetes management improvement will be measured by the Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) scores and the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in Hemoglobin A1C levels
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 Month
Glycemic control will be evaluated by measuring change in Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) levels. Poor glycemic control defined as an average HbA1c > 7.5%. Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Baseline and 6 Month
Change from Baseline in Glucose Levels measured by Continuous Glucose Monitor
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 Month
Glycemic control will be evaluated by measuring average glucose levels using Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM). Normal glucose levels 74-99 mg/dL. Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Baseline and 6 Month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline on Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 Month
The Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) is a self reported instrument assessing diabetes self-care activities. Possible scores range from 0 (Does not apply) to 3 (Applies to me very much). Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Baseline and 6 Month
Change from Baseline on Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 Month
The Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) is a validated patient-administered questionnaire that is used to assess gastroparesis symptom severity. Possible scores range from 0 (None) to 5 (Very Severe). Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Baseline and 6 Month
