  • Body Mass Index (BMI) \>40 kg/m2 and \<55 kg/m2, or BMI \>35 kg/m2 and \<40 kg/m2 with one or more significant medical conditions related to obesity (co-morbid conditions of type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, or osteoarthritis of the hip or knee) for which the subject is being treated, and which are generally expected to be improved, reversed, or resolved by weight loss.
  • lbs. overweight or 1.5 times ideal weight;
  • Documented failure of conservative, non-surgical means of weight reduction within one year prior to the Screening Visit, including failure of supervised diet, exercise and or behavior modification programs, and pharmacologic therapy;

  • Severe cardiopulmonary disease or other serious organic disease that makes the subject a high-risk surgical candidate;
