Orbera365 intragastric balloon for weight loss and safety during up to 12 months in place
Official title: Safety and Effectiveness of Orbera365™ Intragastric Balloon System: A Multi-Center, Prospective, Standard of Care Registry
Run by Boston Scientific Corporation · NCT07062094 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This registry will collect routine clinic data to see if the Orbera365 intragastric balloon is safe and helpful for adults with obesity (BMI 30–50, or higher with comorbidities) when left in place for up to 12 months.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18 years) with BMI 30–50 kg/m2, or BMI ≥40 kg/m2 (or ≥35 kg/m2 with comorbidities) who have previously failed supervised weight-loss programs and who have already consented to receive the Orbera365 device are the intended participants.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients planning pregnancy, unable or unwilling to take proton pump inhibitors, currently using weight-loss medications/supplements within three months, or unable to complete follow-up at the treating physician’s location are unlikely to be eligible or receive benefit from this registry.

What this trial studies
This prospective, multicenter registry in the European Union collects standard-of-care data from adults who have already agreed to receive the Orbera365 intragastric balloon for weight loss. Up to 200 subjects (minimum 100) will be enrolled at up to ten sites, with visits during the device in-dwell period and a single 30-day post-removal follow-up; total participation lasts up to 13 months. The registry is intended to document safety outcomes and routine weight-management measures for extended in situ dwell time of 6 to 12 months. Data are obtained from regular clinical visits without additional experimental procedures beyond usual care.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the registry could support that leaving the Orbera365 balloon in place for up to 12 months is a safe, longer-duration non-surgical option to help patients lose weight.
How similar studies have gone: Previous intragastric balloon devices, including earlier Orbera systems used for shorter (~6-month) placements, have shown weight-loss benefits, but evidence for safety and outcomes with 12-month dwell time is more limited.

Subject meets the indicated population for the device according to the Instructions for Use (IFU) including obese patients with the BMI of 30-50 kg/m2 for weight loss and patients with BMI 40 kg/m2 and above or a BMI of 35 kg/m2 with comorbidities before obesity or another surgery, unless contraindicated. 3. Subject is able to read, understand, and sign a written Informed Consent Form to participate in the registry Exclusion Criteria: 1. Subject is planning on becoming pregnant during the one year following study device placement 2. Subject will complete follow-up visits at a location that the treating physician does not practice 3. Subjects who are unable or unwilling to take prescribed proton pump inhibitor medication for the duration of the device implant. 4.
