Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: RESET Treatment Arm

Patients in ARM 1, will receive an upper endoscopy and will be treated with the RESET Liner

sham comparator: Sham Control Arm

Patients in Arm 2 will receive an upper endoscopy, but will not be treated with the RESET Liner.

Interventions

RESET Liner

The RESET System is provided as a single-use, sterile device and consists of an RESET Liner preloaded, packaged and sterilized within the RESET Delivery System. The RESET Delivery System is utilized to deliver the RESET Liner to the proximal small intestine. The RESET Liner is removed using the RESET Retrieval System. The RESET System incorporates no pharmacological, biological tissue or blood products.

Sham

Patient receives upper endoscopy but no treatment

Primary outcome measure

  • Change in HbA1c [ Time Frame: 9 Months ]
  • SAE Rate [ Time Frame: 9 months ]
