About this study

Official title: Prospective Registry of Submucosal Endoscopic Procedures Performed by a Novel Electrosurgical Unit

This is a prospective registry of all patients who endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) and gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) using ConMed Electrosurgical unit for submucosal Dissection at Baylor St Luke's Medical Center. Collected information includes; procedure technical success rate, duration, periprocedural complications and ease of use.

Read the detailed description

Submucosal endoscopy is a novel subset of procedures which enables endoscopist to utilize the submucosal space to perform advanced endoscopic procedures. The submucosa is the third layer of the gastrointestinal wall and it is a potential space which is expandable upon injecting the submucosa with fluid. The expanded submucosa causes a significant lift which enable dissection of the submucosal space with the removal of the overlying polyp or early cancer. The submucosal space can be also utilized to create a longitudinal submucosal tunnel in the esophagus or the stomach wall which allows for performing lower esophageal sphincter or pyloric myotomy for the treatment of achalasia or Gastroparesis.

Currently, the most commonly performed submucosal endoscopy procedures are endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for removal of early cancers or polyps throughout the gastrointestinal tract, Per-oral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) for treatment of achalasia, or Gastric Per-Oral Endoscopic myotomy for the treatment of Gastroparesis. All of the above procedures require a specialized electrosurgical unit (ESU) which generate high frequency current to help incision (cutting) of the mucosa and dissection (coagulation) of the submucosa. The ConMed Beamer is a novel ESU with tissue sensing property which expedites the process of submucosal dissection. The device is currently approved for clinical use in the US. The purpose of this study is to create registry for all submucosal endoscopy procedures performed using ConMed Beamer device at BSLMC with focus on clinical outcomes of the procedure including adverse events.

What is being measured

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

  1. Technical Success rate

    Defined as the ability to perform the entire procedure using the ConMed Beamer electrosurgical system

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Procedure Time

    Determine length of time to perform procedure using ConMed Beamer electrosurgical system

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Adverse Events

    Intraprocedural AE such as bleeding or perforation

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Adverse Events

    Post procedural, post polypectomy, delayed bleeding or delayed perforation

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastrointestinal Neoplasms and Achalasia, run by Baylor College of Medicine 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 3 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 27 May 2022. 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 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?

Technical Success rate (time frame: 1 year). 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 27 May 2022.
