About this study

Official title: Suturing Pattern for Endolumenal Stenting Procedures

Researchers are trying to determine which suturing pattern for esophageal stent placement is more effective in a randomized fashion as currently what suturing pattern to use is an arbitrary decision.

Read the detailed description

The participants who are receiving esophageal stent placement will be prospectively randomized to receive two suturing patterns (simple interrupted pattern and triangular pattern) for endoscopic esophageal stent fixation. We will investigate rate of the stent migration at 3-4 weeks by endoscopy after the stent placement as part of routine clinical care. Data of the duration of endoscopic suturing, adverse events, details of the stent used, indication for use will also be collected.

Study groups in NCT04007692
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Simple interrupted suture groupParticipants will have a simple interrupted suturing pattern, determined by care provider, at the time of esophageal stent placement for esophageal stent fixation as part of standard care and will have an endoscopy at 3-4 weeks after the stent placement as part of a routine follow-up.
Receives: Procedure: Esophageal stent placement
Triangular suture groupParticipants will have a triangular suturing pattern, determined by care provider, at the time of esophageal stent placement for esophageal stent fixation as part of standard care and will have an endoscopy at 3-4 weeks after the stent placement as part of a routine follow-up.
Receives: Procedure: Esophageal stent placement

What is being measured

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

  1. Stent migration rate

    Number of participants with stent migration as assessed by objective evidence of stent migration on endoscopy at 3-4 weeks after esophageal stent placement

    Measured: 4 weeks post stent placement

  2. Adverse Events

    Number of adverse events reported

    Measured: 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Esophageal Stenosis and Stent Migration, run by Mayo Clinic 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 2 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Accrual difficulties: This trial was initiated prior to COVID-19 and interrupted by the pandemic for a significant length of time.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Stent migration rate (time frame: 4 weeks post stent placement). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Sep 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
