Randomized, Single-Center, Parallel-group, Open-label Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of the GI Windows Magnet Anastomosis System (MAS) When Used to Create a Dual-path Enteral Diversion Compared with Medical Therapy Alone To Effect Glycemic Control in Obese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
The MAS will be placed using an endoscope in the duodenum and and laparoscopically into ileum. A compression anastomosis will be created in each of the patients and the diversion of enteral flow from the duodenum to ileum treats Type 2 diabetes.
The best medical management for the patients in this arm will be decided by the endocrinologist based on protocol parameters.
