About this study

Official title: Covered Stents Versus Bare-Metal Stents in Chronic Atherosclerotic Gastrointestinal Ischemia

To compare the outcome of revascularisation the gastrointestinal arteries using covered stents compared to bare-metal stents in patients with CGI.

Read the detailed description

Symptomatic chronic atherosclerotic gastrointestinal ischemia (CGI) is an uncommon, potentially underdiagnosed condition caused by fixed stenosis or occlusion of in most conditions at least one of the three gastrointestinal arteries. Atherosclerosis is a predisposing factor for CGI. Clinical symptoms can vary widely. Typical symptoms are postprandial abdominal pain, unintended weight loss and food avoidance. But atypical abdominal pain such as exercise related pain, diarrhoea and nausea can also indicate CGI. The use of endovascular techniques for revascularization of chronic stenosis and occlusions of the gastrointestinal arteries has rapidly increased and endovascular therapy with stenting has become the most common method chosen for revascularization, having replaced open surgery with its associated morbidity and mortality. Nowadays standard care in significant chronic gastrointestinal ischemia is the use of bare metal stents although the patency of these stents is not very high. According retrospective data the patency of covered stents is significantly higher compared to bare metal stents. One likely explanation for these lower restenosis and re-intervention rates observed with covered stents is the established barrier to tissue ingrowth. Only recent retrospective data about this topic is available but the expectancy in this prospective study is that the patency of covered stents is indeed higher compared to metal stents.

What participants receive

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

  • Covered stent (Atrium Type V12)Device

    An endovascular treatment that consists of inserting a covered stent into the stenosed vessels.

  • Bare stent (Brand Cordis Type Palmaz Blue)Device

    Also called Brand Cordis Type Palmaz Blue

    An endovascular treatment that consists of inserting a stent into the stenosed vessels.

What is being measured

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

  1. The difference of primary and secondary patency rates of covered stents versus bare-metal stents to treat atherosclerotic CGI disease.

    Measured: 12 to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The freedom from restenosis after 6-, 12- and 24- months after stent implantation

    Restenosis is defined as >50% intra-stent stenosis regardless of whether the patient has clinical symptoms

    Measured: 6 to 24 month

  2. The freedom from symptom recurrence after 6-, 12- and 24- months after stent implantation

    Symptom recurrence is defined as occurrence of clinical symptoms typical for CGI regardless of stent patency

    Measured: 6 to 24 month

  3. The freedom from reintervention after 6-, 12- and 24- months after stent implantation

    Re-intervention is defined as intervention due to symptom occurrence in the presence of >50% intra -stenosis, either a reimplantation of stent or a surgical procedure.

    Measured: 6 to 24 month

  4. The clinical outcome in terms of quality of life and therapeutic and total costs after 6-, 12- and 24- months after stent implantation

    Measured: 6 to 24 month

  5. The clinical outcome in terms therapeutic and total costs after 6-, 12- and 24- months after stent implantation

    Measured: 6 to 24 month

What does the primary outcome measure?

The difference of primary and secondary patency rates of covered stents versus bare-metal stents to treat atherosclerotic CGI disease. (time frame: 12 to 24 months). 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 NCT02428582, which also lists 2 linked publications.
