About this study

The objective of the study is to document the clinical efficacy and complications of endoscopic pyloromyotomy in patients with refractory gastroparesis (diabetic, post-operative and idiopathic), compared to Botulinic toxin injection intra-pyloric the results of which are close to the placebo.

Read the detailed description

Gastroparesis is a functional disease affecting 4% of the population, which is consecutive to diabetes in 30% of cases and considerably alters the patients' quality of life. The diagnosis is based on gastric fullness symptoms, endoscopy and gastric emptying scintigraphy. The therapeutic alternatives including drug therapies (Metoclopramide, Erythrocin), surgery (Electric gastric stimulation) or endoscopy (Botulinic toxin), are insufficiently effective. Two surgical series suggested an interesting efficacy of laparoscopic pyloroplasty, which remains invasive for a motility disorder. More recently, an US team performed the first case of G-POEM with an excellent outcome and no adverse event. This promising result was confirmed by a Brazilian case, a short retrospective series (7 patients) and the first European case performed and published by our team that has performed 5 cases since. Based on experience, it is proposed a prospective monocentric study to evaluate the efficacy of the G-POEM technique on refractory gastroparesis. This study will include 40 patients on a period of three years, whom suffer from refractory gastroparesis, confirmed by clinical evaluation (GCSI and analogic visual scale), upper GI endoscopy and gastric emptying scintigraphy at the inclusion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Per-oral endoscopy pyloromyotomy and Intrapyloric injection of Botulinum toxin in people with Gastroparesis, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Oct 2016. 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 France. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jean-Michel Gonzalez (jean-michel.gonzalez@ap-hm.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index score calculation (time frame: Up to 3 months). 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 18 Oct 2016.
