About this study

Official title: Clinical Study on Continuous Suture of Mucosal Defects After Endoscopic Mucosal Lesion Resection

The use of clips to completely clip mucosal defects after ESD/EMR can reduce postoperative adverse events, but the rate of incomplete mucosal defects closure is high. The continuous suture technique can completely close the mucosal defects by using surgical sutures and clips to suture the mucosal defects after ESD/EMR. In this study, a clinical randomized controlled study was conducted in our hospital. A total of 62 enrolled patients were divided into two groups, 31 patients were set as a treatment group using continuous suture technique to close post-EMR/ESD mucosal/submucosal defects, the rest patients were set as a control group using clips. The safety and effectiveness of continuous sutures and clips to clamp the post-EMR/ESD mucosal/submucosal defect were compared in the two groups. The complete mucosal/submucosa defects closure rates were the primary outcome.

Read the detailed description

Endoscopic submucosal resection (EMR) or submucosal dissection (ESD) for gastrointestinal lesions were used to treat early gastrointestinal cancer or large benign polyps, and their complete resection rates were high, which greatly reduce unnecessary surgical operations. However, after endoscopic resection of mucosal/submucosal lesions, large mucosal/submucosal defects may be created. These defects may cause more delayed postoperative adverse events (bleeding, perforation). The use of clips to completely seal the mucosal defect after gastrointestinal mucosal/submucosal lesion resection can significantly reduce postoperative adverse events, but the rate of incomplete mucosal defects closure is high. The surgical sutures combined with clips to close the mucosal defect after surgery significantly increased the complete closure rates of the post-EMR/ESD mucosal/submucosal defect. This study intends to further determine its safety and effectiveness through a clinical randomized controlled study, and standardize indications and contraindications. A total of 62 enrolled patients were allocated into two groups, 31 patients were set as a treatment group using continuous suture technique to close post-EMR/ESD mucosal/submucosal defects, the rest patients were set as a control group using clips. The safety and effectiveness of continuous sutures and clips to clamp the post-EMR/ESD mucosal/submucosal defect were compared in the two groups. The primary outcome was complete mucosal/submucosa defects closure rates. The secondary outcomes were the closure time, closure speed, and immediate bleeding during the operation as well as delayed bleeding, delayed perforation, and polyps syndrome after resection.

What is being measured

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

  1. The rates of complete closure of mucosal/submucosal defects

    When the clips were applied next to each other and there were no substantial submucosal areas in the closure line

    Measured: 1day

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The duration time of closure

    The duration of closure was defined as the interval from insertion of the first clip until complete or incomplete closure

    Measured: 1 day

  2. The closure speed

    The closure speed was defined as the resection area divided by 10x the duration of the ligation procedure (cm2 /10 minutes).

    Measured: 1day

  3. Immediate bleeding

    Immediate bleeding refers to those episodes of hemorrhage that occurred during the procedure and lasted more than 30 seconds or required endoscopic treatment.

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Delayed bleeding

    Delayed bleeding was defined as bleeding requiring emergency endoscopic hemostasis or transfusion or the presence of hemoglobin loss≥2 g/dL after EMR/ESD

    Measured: 14 days

  5. Delayed perforation

    Delayed perforation was defined as the presence of free air on abdominal CT or radiography after completion of the procedure in patients without perforation during EMR/ESD and no symptoms of peritoneal irritation after EMR/ESD

    Measured: 14 days

  6. Post polypectomy syndrome

    Post polypectomy syndrome was defined by symptoms of pain, fever, leukocytosis, peritoneal tenderness, and guarding.

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cotinuous suture and Clips in people with Colonic Polyp and Gastrointestinal Neoplasms, run by Affiliated Hospital to Academy of Military Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 8 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 Apr 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 China. 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?

The rates of complete closure of mucosal/submucosal defects (time frame: 1day). 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 Apr 2024.
