About this study

In this study, a newly designed and FDA approved fully covered metal stents will be used to palliate 20 patients with malignant lesion of the esophagus. Dysphagia score will be assessed before and after treatment to confirm efficacy

Read the detailed description

The incidence of esophageal cancer is increasing, and despite advances in treatment, the prognosis is still very poor [1-4]. At presentation, between 50-60 % of patients have unresectable disease [5,6]. For these patients, palliation is the goal with a particular focus on the relief of dysphagia, which is the major etiology of morbidity [5,6]. Presently, Self expanding metal stent (SEMS) have become the treatment of choice for dysphagia associated with unresectable esophageal and GE junction malignancies.

In this study, a newly designed and FDA approved fully covered metal stents will be used to palliate 20 patients with malignant lesion of the esophagus. Dysphagia score will be assessed before and after treatment to confirm efficacy

The objectives are:

  1. To evaluate if the newly fully covered metal stent , HANAROSTENT can provide adequate palliation of cancerous lesions of the esophagus;
  2. To determine whether it is non-inferior in efficacy and safety to the esophageal stents currently available at UVa with minimal complications and improvement of symptoms

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HANAROSTENT TM covered Esophageal Stent in people with Esophageal Cancer, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University 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 3 inclusion and 4 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2015. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Palliation assessment based on Dysphagia Scores (time frame: 2 years). 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 3 Jun 2015.
