Trial summary

Examination of major duodenal papilla (MDP) using a standard forward-viewing esophagogastroduodenoscopy (S-EGD) is limited. Until now, side-viewing duodenoscope is the modality of choice to examine the MDP. Read more about this study

About this study

Examination of major duodenal papilla (MDP) using a standard forward-viewing esophagogastroduodenoscopy (S-EGD) is limited. Until now, side-viewing duodenoscope is the modality of choice to examine the MDP. Cap assisted esophagogastroduodenoscopy (CA-EGD) uses a cap fitted to the tip of the scope that can depress the mucosal folds and thus improve visualization and examination of MDP. The aim of this study is to compare CA-EGD to side*viewing duodenoscope for complete examination of MDP.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of complete visualisation of papilla duodeni major

    complete visualization is defined by visualization of both proximal and distal ends together with the orifice of the papilla

    Measured: within 5 minutes after intubation of the esophagus

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Duration needed to localize the papilla

    Measured: within 5 minutes after intubation of the esophagus

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing cap assisted forward-viewing endoscope in people with Duodenal Papilla, Major, run by Technical University of Munich at 1 site in Germany.

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 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 23 May 2017. 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 Germany. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Rate of complete visualisation of papilla duodeni major (time frame: within 5 minutes after intubation of the esophagus). 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 NCT02883608, 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 23 May 2017.
