About this study

Official title: Multicenter Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of the Nitinol ZILVER Expandable Endoprosthesis in the Palliation of Extrahepatic Malignant Biliary Obstruction

This study compares the 6 mm nitinol Zilver biliary endoprostheses and the 10 mm nitinol Zilver biliary endoprostheses to the 10 mm Wallstent in appropriate patients in need of palliative treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.

Read the detailed description

This research is being done to determine if the new, FDA-cleared Zilver metal biliary stent is better than the conventional stents. The new Zilver stent may permit more accurate placement, may avoid some potential complications and last longer than the conventional stents. The study will also examine to find the best diameter of stent by comparing standard 10 mm stents to 6 mm Zilver stents.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patency

    Number of days of stent patency: The time to stent occlusion requiring re-intervention, death, loss to follow-up, or patients alive at study end without an occlusion (>= 6 months after placement).

    Measured: up to 32 months

  2. Closure or Blockage of the Stent (Occlusion)

    Biliary stents may become closed or blocked. This is also termed "Occlusion." Data for this outcome measure involve stent occlusions that required re-intervention.

    Measured: up to 32 months

  3. Number of Days to Occlusion

    Measured: up to 32 months

  4. Number of Deaths

    Measured: up to 32 months

  5. Time to Death

    Overall Survival

    Measured: up to 32 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 6 mm Nitinol Zilver Stent, 10 mm Nitinol Zilver Stent and 10 mm Stainless Steel Wallstent in people with Biliary Tract Neoplasms and Pancreatic Neoplasms, run by Cook Group Incorporated at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Jan 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patency (time frame: up to 32 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00196105, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Oct 2011.
