Brief Summary
The purpose of this clinical study is to test the hypothesis that RF vapor ablation of the duodenal mucosa will result in improvement in glycemic parameters, without complications (bleeding/ stricture / perforation). The main aims of the study are :
- 1.Evaluate the safety of the device and procedure based on the reported adverse events that occur.
- 2.Evaluate the effectiveness of the device and procedure by comparing change in HbA1c from baseline to 168 days post procedure.
- 3.Evaluate device tolerability based on pain scores reported by patients. The subject population for this study are adults (18-65 years of age) with type-2 diabetes mellitus. Study participation is 6 months for each patient.

Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Men and non-pregnant women 18-65 years of age
- Diagnosed with T2D for at least 3 years and less than or equal to 10 years
- HbA1C of 7.5 - 10% (59-86 mmol/mol)
- BMI ≥ 24 and ≤ 40 kg/m2
- Agrees to use an additional glucose-lowering treatment (e.g., liraglutide, other OAD with the exception of glyburide), if recommended by the study Investigator in case of persistent hyperglycemia.
- Able to comply with study requirements and understand and sign the Informed Consent Form
You may not qualify if:
- Diagnosis of Type-1 Diabetes
- History of diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar nonketotic coma.
- Probable insulin production failure, defined as fasting C Peptide serum \<1 ng/mL (333pmol/l).
- Previous use of any types of insulin for \>1 month (at any time, except for treatment of gestational diabetes).
- Current use of injectable medications for diabetes (insulin, GLP-1RA).
- Current use of glyburide, a sulfonylurea (SU) glucose-lowering drug for diabetes.
- History of severe hypoglycemia (more than 1 severe hypoglycemic event, as defined by need for third-party assistance, in the last year).
- Known autoimmune disease, including but not limited to celiac disease, duodenal Crohn disease or pre-existing symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma or other systemic autoimmune connective tissue disorder.
- History of chronic or acute pancreatitis.
- History of diabetic gastroparesis.
- Known active hepatitis or active liver disease.
- Acute gastrointestinal illness in the previous 7 days.
- Known history of severe irritable bowel syndrome, radiation enteritis or other inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease.
- Known history of a structural or functional disorder of the esophagus that may impede passage of the device through the gastrointestinal tract or increase risk of esophageal damage during an endoscopic procedure, including moderate-severe (Grade C or D) esophagitis, dysphagia due to achalasia or stricture/stenosis, esophageal varices, esophageal perforation, or any other disorder of the esophagus.
- Upper gastrointestinal conditions such as active ulcers, polyps, varices, strictures, congenital or acquired duodenal telangiectasia
