This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new procedure called bariatric endoscopic antral myotomy (BEAM) to help people lose weight. The procedure uses a camera passed through the mouth to gently cut muscle fibers in the stomach, which slows down how fast your stomach empties and helps you feel full sooner. Early results suggest this treatment can lead to significant weight loss.
Many people with obesity struggle to lose weight through diet, exercise, and medication alone. This new treatment offers a less invasive alternative to traditional weight loss surgery, with potentially lower risks and the added benefit of allowing doctors to check the stomach for other health concerns.

If you join this trial, you will receive the BEAM procedure, which is performed under general anesthesia using a gastroscope—a thin camera passed through your mouth into your stomach. The procedure involves carefully cutting muscle fibers to weaken the stomach's pumping action. You will be monitored for safety and effectiveness, with follow-up visits to track your weight loss and overall health over time.
