Traditionally, treatments include intensive lifestyle modifications with or without glucose lowering agents. Neither treatment alone, or in combination, results in complete resolution of diabetes and its potential long-term complications. Bariatric surgery has been proven as an effective treatment to accomplish sustained and significant weight loss for those with severe obesity and has been shown to induce long-term remission of T2DM. However, despite enthusiasm for these potential treatment options, it is not clear whether diabetes is influenced by the type of surgery or by the amount of weight lost or if bariatric surgery is more effective than non-surgical weight loss induced by diet and physical activity in T2DM patients with moderate BMIs (30-40kg/m2; Class I and Class II obesity, or approximately 65-95 pounds overweight depending on your height). More well-controlled studies are needed to more completely inform health care decision making and clinical practice in this area. This research study aims to obtain preliminary information regarding the effectiveness of two major types of bariatric surgery, Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss with diet and increased physical activity.', 'detailedDescription': 'The Specific Aims of the first phase of the study are as follows:\n\nAim 1. To determine the feasibility of performing a randomized trial comparing two major types of bariatric surgery, Laparoscopic Roux en Y Gastric Bypass (RNY) and Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding (GB) versus a lifestyle weight loss intervention (LWLI) induced by diet and increased physical activity in moderately obese patients (Class I and II obesity) with T2DM. We hypothesize that: 1) A randomized design with both surgical and non-surgical arms will be both feasible and acceptable to participants and to providers 2) There will be no difference in retention rates between the LWLI and surgical arms (RNY, GB) of the study and it will provide estimates of overall retention for future studies.\n\nAim 2. To obtain preliminary information regarding the effectiveness of two dominant bariatric surgery procedures versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss with diet and increased physical activity. We hypothesize that: 1) RNY will be superior to GB and LWLI in weight lost in 12 months.\n\nAim 3. To explore the feasibility, methods for, and implementation of a range of early outcome measures including; resolution of diabetes, glucose control, medication usage, insulin resistance, beta cell function, body composition, objective measures of physical activity, and several psychosocial measures. We hypothesize that: 1) Participants will be willing to undergo a range of early outcome testing measures to assess metabolic change, body composition alterations, objective physical activity, and psychosocial factors. 2) Measures of T2DM improvement including an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) will be feasible in a subset of participants in each study arm and RNY will be superior to both GB and LWLI for the clinical and metabolic improvement of T2DM. 3) The LWLI group will show improvements in physical activity compared to RNY and GB.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '55 Years', 'minimumAge': '25 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age 25 to 55 years\n* Mild to moderate obesity with a BMI between 30 and 40 kg/m2\n* For potential subjects with BMI 35 to 40 kg/m2: T2DM confirmed by either a documented fasting blood glucose \\> 126 mg/dl OR treatment with an anti-diabetic medication\n* For potential subjects with BMI 30 to 35 kg/m2: T2DM that is difficult to control medically and is recommended for the study by the subject's endocrinologist AND treatment with an anti-diabetic medication\n* Willingness to be randomized to a surgical intervention\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Prior bariatric or foregut surgery\n* Poor overall general health\n* Impaired mental status\n* Drug and/or alcohol addiction\n* Current smoking\n* Pregnant or plans to become pregnant\n* Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus\n* Portal hypertension and/or Cirrhosis\n* Failed study-related nutrition or psychological assessment\n* Current participation in any other research study\n* Inability to provide informed consent\n* Unlikely to comply with study protocol\n* Unable to communicate with study staff\n* Unable to exercise (walk a city block or a flight of stairs)"}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01047735', 'acronym': 'TRIABETES', 'briefTitle': 'The TRIABETES - ARMMS-T2D Study: A Randomized Trial to Compare Surgical and Medical Treatments for Type 2 Diabetes', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Pittsburgh'}, 'officialTitle': 'Randomized Trial to Compare Surgical and Medical Treatments for Type 2 Diabetes (Triabetes) - Alliance of Randomized Trials of Medicine vs. Metabolic Surgery in Type 2 Diabetes ARMMST2D)', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'STUDY20060163'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'RC1DK086037', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/RC1DK086037', 'type': 'NIH'}, {'id': 'R01DK095128-01', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/R01DK095128-01', 'type': 'NIH'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery', 'description': 'Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding', 'description': 'Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Lifestyle/Behavioral Weight Loss', 'description': 'Lifestyle Weight Loss Intervention', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: Lifestyle Weight Loss Intervention']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Participants assigned to the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass treatment group will undergo a surgical procedure that limit foods intake and causes nutrients malabsorption.
