About this study

Official title: Is Useful a Coaxial Plastic Stent Within a Lumen-Apposing Metal Stent For The Palliative Management Of Malignant Biliary Obstruction?

There are doubts concerning the possible benefits derived from the insertion of double-pigtail plastic stents (DPS) within the lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) in the EUS-guided transmural biliary drainage (BD). The aims was to evaluate the safety of LAMS with and without a coaxial DPS in EUS-BD for the palliative management in malignant biliary obstruction.

What participants receive

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

  • Endoscopic biliary transmural drainageDevice

    Also called Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided biliary drainage, Choledochoduodenostomy

    Endosonography-guided biliodigestive anastomosis using a dedicated biliary lumen-apposing stent in order to proveide a biliary drainage in cases of palliative malignant biliary obstruction.

    Two different strategies will be compared: single lumen-apposing stent vs lumen-apposing stent plus dousble-pigtail plastic stent.

1- Single biliary LAMSUnresectable/inoperable biliopancreatic cases with distal biliary obstruction who underwent EUS-BD with a single lumen-apposing stent after failed ERCP cannulation or inaccessible papilla.

2- Biliary LAMS plus Doublu-Pigtail plastic EtentUnresectable/inoperable biliopancreatic cases with distal biliary obstruction who underwent EUS-BD with a single lumen-apposing stent (plus double-pigtail plastic stent) after failed ERCP cannulation or inaccessible papilla.

What is being measured

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

  1. Potential benefits

    to respond if a coaxial DPS within a biliary LAMS really has a potential benefit in the EUS-BD (less number of adverse events: cholangitis, bleeding, sump syndrome, cholestasis secondary to stent biliary obstruction)

    Measured: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Technical success

    Technical success was defined as a successful stent placement between the extrahepatic bile duct and duodenal lumen in a single step approach and determined by endoscopy and fluoroscopy

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Clinical success

    Clinical success was defined as a reduction in bilirubin by 50% at 2-weeks after stent placement, meaning that the biliary stent was functional.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  3. Procedure time

    Procedure time was defined from the insertion of the endoscope to its removal.

    Measured: 2 hours

  4. Biliary reintervention

    Biliary reintervention: the need to perform additional interventions to achieve biliary drainage.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Cancer and Endoscopy, run by Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge at 3 sites in Spain.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Spain. 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?

Potential benefits (time frame: 4 weeks). 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 13 Jul 2021.
