The SHAPE (Screened Health Assessment and Pacer Evaluation) trial was a 24 month randomized multicenter placebo‐controlled study to determine the efficacy of an implantable gastric stimulator (IGS) for weight loss. This report is an investigator‐initiated sub‐study at one site designed to assess whether IGS affects plasma levels of ghrelin and peptide YY (PYY). The device was implanted in all subjects but was activated in the Treatment group (n= 7, BMI = 41.5 ± 2.0 kg/m2) and remained inactive in the Control (n= 6, BMI = 39.5 ± 1.7 kg/m2) during the first 12 months. IGS was activated in both groups during months 12–24. Fasting venous blood was drawn at months 0, 12, and 24 and an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed at month 12. Although there was no difference in weight loss at 6 months (Control: −6.6 ± 1.5% vs. Treatment: −6.2 ± 1.4%), at 24 months the Control group exhibited weight gain from baseline (+2.2 ± 1.5%) that was significantly different from the weight loss in the Treatment group (−1.9 ± 1.4%;P< 0.05). At 12 months, fasting ghrelin was significantly increased (P< 0.05) in the Treatment group (285 ± 35 to 336 ± 35 pg/ml; weight change, −4.9 ± 1.4%), but not in the Control (211 ± 36 to 208 ± 35 pg/ml; weight change, −3.4 ± 1.5%). No significant change was observed in postprandial suppression of plasma ghrelin or in fasting and postprandial PYY levels. In conclusion, IGS does not prevent the increase in fasting plasma ghrelin levels associated with weight loss. Further studies are needed to determine whether changes in technology can improve weight loss and maintenance, perhaps using gut hormones as biomarkers of possible efficacy.
