About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a trans-endoscopic capsule placement Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System.

Read the detailed description

Natural ingestion of a wireless capsule endoscope (e.g. PillCam™ SB) is contraindicated in subjects with oropharyngeal or mechanical dysphagia, gastroparesis and known or suspected anatomical abnormalities. In addition, ingestion of a wireless capsule endoscope may be challenging in the pediatric population. The PillCam® Express Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System is intended to provide physicians with the capability to place capsules in the proximal duodenum using the accessory channel of a standard endoscope.

The PillCam™ SB capsule to be used in this study was cleared by the FDA in August 2001 for small bowel evaluation. It has been ingested to date by more than 1,000,000 people worldwide and is well accepted by subjects and physicians as well as the professional societies.

Further details of the PillCam®Express Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System can be found in the device description section.

This study is designed to evaluate the performance and safety of the Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System in subjects indicated to undergo a standard Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) endoscopy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PillCam® Express Capsule Endoscopy Delivery SystemDevice

    The PillCam® Express Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System is comprised of three parts: a catheter, a syringe and the capsule holder. The catheter is passed through the accessory channel of a standard endoscope and the capsule holder is snapped on to the distal end of the device. The endoscope is used to guide the Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System to the proximal duodenum. The capsule is then released pneumatically, using an air-filled syringe attached to the proximal end of the catheter.

    Once the capsule is deployed, the endoscope is withdrawn and the capsule holder is cut off at the distal part of the device with scissors. The catheter is then retracted and discarded.

    The PillCam® Express Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System is single-use, disposable and latex-free.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Successful Capsule Placement Into the Duodenum Using Capsule Delivery System

    The number of capsules that successfully were in the duodenum as indicated by video images

    Measured: up to 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physician's Subjective Assessment of the Ease of Capsule Placement

    The physician was required to assess the ease of use while answering a designated questionnaire.

    In addition, qualitative analysis was reformed with regard to all the open questions.

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PillCam® Express Capsule Endoscopy Delivery System in people with Small Bowel Disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease, run by Medtronic - MITG at 3 sites 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 22 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 2 May 2012). 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?

Number of Participants With Successful Capsule Placement Into the Duodenum Using Capsule Delivery System (time frame: up to 7 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 22 Oct 2020.
