In April 2022, the French National Authority for Health (HAS) published the draft opinion on the coverage of the endoscopic gastroplasty with the use of the ENDOMINA triangulation platform from the Endo Tools Therapeutics under the Innovation package (Forfait innovation). However, the HAS provided some recommendations regarding the modification of the study protocol that should be implemented within 30 days. The HAS opinion of April 2022 can be found here.
