About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of the Endodrill Model X Biopsy Instrument When Sampling Tumours in the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract

This is an investigator led prospective open label investigation, performed at three clinics in Sweden, comparing the flexible endoscopic biopsy instrument Endodrill Model X with the standard sampling method endoscopic ultrasound fine needle aspiration/biopsy. Assessment of safety is the primary objective and performance is the secondary objective.

Read the detailed description

The investigation will include 20 patients with lesions and suspected tumors in the stomach, esophagus or duodenum (upper small intestine). The investigation will consist of one visit with an endoscopic examination with sampling of an observed lesion or suspected tumor. Six biopsies will be collected from each patient, three consecutive samples using the Endodrill Model X instrument and three consecutive samples using the standard fine needle. The order of instruments to be used will be randomly assigned. The patient will be under observation for 2 hours after the procedure. Telephone follow-up will be performed 1 and 7 days after the examination. Visual confirmation of the biopsies size will be recorded at the examination. If the samples verify a tumor or not will be evaluated at Day 14 when the pathology report is concluded.

What participants receive

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

  • Endodrill Model XDevice

    The investigational device Endodrill Model X is used for biopsy sampling in the upper gastrointestinal tract

  • Fine-needle aspiration/biopsyDevice

    The standard method is used for biopsy sampling in the upper gastrointestinal tract

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients with pre-specified adverse events

    Proportion of patients with one or more of the following: 1) non-intentional perforation of the sampled organ, 2) bleeding requiring open surgical intervention or treatment at an intensive care unit, 3) non-planned hospitalization for observation AND where the patient is not fully recovered within 10 days after the endoscopic examination

    Measured: 10 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Amount of visible biopsy material over or under 5 mm at endoscopy examination

    Visual confirmation of the biopsies size > 5 mm or not, will be recorded at the examination. Analysis will be performed at each hospitals department of pathology as all biopsy samples are routinely handled. A copy of the pathology report will recorded in the Contact Report Form (CRF) at day 14 when the study report for each patient is concluded

    Measured: Day 0 (day of biopsy)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endodrill Model X and Fine-needle aspiration/biopsy in people with Tumor Sampling, run by Region Skane at 3 sites in Sweden.

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 4 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 2 Dec 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 Sweden. 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?

Proportion of patients with pre-specified adverse events (time frame: 10 days). 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 2 Dec 2021.
