Therapies include drugs, surgery and treatment with medical devices, such as gastric banding and intragastric balloons. The TransPyloric Shuttle™ (TPS™) is a medical device that is endoscopically delivered and removed from the stomach. The TPS™ is designed to self-position across the pylorus and create an intermittent obstruction to outflow that may result in delayed gastric emptying. Slowing gastric emptying may enable an overall reduction in caloric intake by helping the subject feel full sooner (early satiation) and/or feel full longer (prolonged satiety/reduced hunger).
