Detailed Study Protocol Parameters |
Study Objectives |
Multiple-center, non-randomized, cohort study
|
Study Population |
Patients enrolled in the study LBMI-001: Obesity (BMI ¡Ý 30 kg/m2 and < 35 kg/m2 with or without comorbid conditions and BMI ¡Ý 35 kg/m2 and < 40 kg/m2 without any severe comorbid conditions) at time of LBMI-001 enrollment
|
Sample Size |
Up to 149 patients
|
Key Study Endpoints |
Effectiveness: The percent of subjects treated with the LAP-BAND® who achieve successful weight loss, at 5 years post- implantation, will be statistically non-inferior to 60%, where successful weight loss is defined as at least 30% Excess Weight Loss (EWL).
Safety: The primary measure is the percentage of those subjects who are explanted within 5 years postimplantation. Additionally safety measurements will include the incidence of adverse events, by severity and relation to device, observed over the study assessment period.

Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up |
5 years post implantation
|
Interim or Final Data Summary |
Actual Number of Patients Enrolled |
149 subjects
|
Actual Number of Sites Enrolled |
7 sites
|
Patient Follow-up Rate |
72.5% (108/149)
|
Final Safety Findings |
The 5-year explant rate (including explants with replacement) was 14.8%. Therefore, the primary safety endpoint that the 5-year explant rate is significantly lower than 32.5% has been met.
|
Final Effect Findings |
76.9% of subjects attained successful weight loss (defined as greater than or equal to 30% excess weight loss) at 5 years. Therefore, the main effectiveness endpoint that 5-year successful weight loss will be noted in at least 60% of patients has been met.
|
Study Strengths & Weaknesses |
Strengths of this study include a multi-center, prospective design of adequate sample size for long-term (5-year) evaluation of the primary safety and effectiveness endpoints. The main limitation is the limited generalizability of results, since this post-approval study is an extended follow-up of the premarket cohort. Given that this study is likely comprised of the best responders from the pivotal trial, the main study findings may be an over-estimate of the true device performance in the lower BMI indication.
|
Recommendations for Labeling Changes |
Labeling changes are recommended based on the long-term safety and effectiveness results of the post-approval study.
