Brief Summary:

The study purpose is to demonstrate the benefit of a simplified version of the DIAMOND System (A third Generation) in comparison to a sham treatment in terms of Glycemic control, measured as A1c, FBG and Post-Prandial Glucose levels.

The study hypothesis is that HbA1c will show greater improvement in patients receiving 12 months of therapy by the DIAMOMD System than in patients not receiving this therapy.

Detailed Description:

The study protocol will also apply measures to better understand the mechanism of action of the effect.

Arm	Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Electrical signal ON; Subjects randomized to this group (Group A) will receive electrical stimulation delivered to the fundus for 24 months.	Device: DIAMOND System; Electrical stimulation to the fundus
Sham Comparator: Sham; Subjects randomized to this group (Group B) will have their device in "turned off" mode for the first 12 months (48 weeks) after implant. Then the device will be turned ON and these subjects will receive therapy for the remaining 12 months of the study.	Device: DIAMOND System; Electrical stimulation to the fundus

Outcome Measures

Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :

1. HbA1c [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
   The primary end point will be the difference, at 12 months, in HbA1c change from baseline, between the pts treated with the active signal compared to patients treated with a Sham System.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

1. HbA1c [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
   The difference, at 6 months in HbA1c change from baseline, between the pts treated with the active signal compared to patients treated with a Sham System.
2. GI hormones (C-peptide, Glucagon, Ghrelin, GLP-1, PYY, Gastrin and Somatostatin) [ Time Frame: 6 and 12 months ]
   To detect differences in the pattern of meal-related release of GI hormones (slope / area under the curve, etc)between the treatment and the control groups, as analyzed by repeated-measures ANOVA. Glucose, insulin and the following GI hormones will be measured prior and post meal consumption: C-peptide, Glucagon, Ghrelin, GLP-1, PYY, Gastrin and Somatostatin.
3. Metabolic parameters (fasting and post Prandial glucose, blood pressure, lipids and cholesterol, weight and waist circumference) [ Time Frame: 6 and 12 months ]
   The difference in metabolic parameters at 6 and 12 months from baseline between the two arms. Including: fasting and post Prandial glucose, blood pressure, lipids and cholesterol, weight and waist circumference.
4. Triglycerides [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
   The effect of the TG level at baseline on treatment efficacy
5. HbA1c [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
   The change in HbA1c from baseline to 12 months and 24 months

• Stable anti-hypertensive and lipid-lowering medication for at least one month prior to enrollment, if taken
• Women with childbearing potential (i.e., not post-menopausal or surgically sterilized) must agree to use adequate birth control methods
• Ability and willingness to perform required study and data collection procedures and adhere to operating requirements of the System
• Alert, mentally competent, and able to understand and willing to comply with the requirements of the clinical trial, and personally motivated to abide by the requirements and restrictions of the clinical trial
• Able to provide voluntary informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

• Injectable anti-diabetic therapy within the last 3 months (such as insulin and/or GLP-1 receptor agonists)
• Taking medications known to affect gastric motility such as narcotics (chronic use) and anticholinergics/antispasmodics
• Any gastric or upper GI surgery
• Experiencing severe and progressing diabetic complications (i.e. retinopathy not stabilized, nephropathy with macroalbuminuria)
• Prior wound healing problems
• Diagnosed with past or current psychiatric condition that may impair his or her ability to comply with the study procedures
• Use of anti-psychotic medications
