About this study

Official title: A Comparison of a Fully Covered Self-expandable Metal Stent With an External Anchoring Plastic Stent and Uncovered Stent: Prospective Randomized Multicenter Study

Multi-center, randomized controlled study fc-SEMS with anchoring plastic stent vs uc-SEMS in malignant biliary obstruction

Read the detailed description

This study is multi-center, randomized controlled study to compare the stent patency in malignant biliary obstruction. The patency of fully covered self expandable metal stent with external anchoring plastic stent was compared with that of uncovered self expandable metal stent.

Being tested
fully covered self-expandable metal stent with an anchoring external plastic stent, uncovered self-expandable metal stent
Keywords
Fully Covered Self Expandable Metal Stent, Uncovered Self Expandable Metal Stent

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of patent stent

    The number of patient without stent dysfuction divided by total number of patients

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Stent obstruction

    Suspected by jaundice (Total bilirubin > 2 upper normal limit) or radiologic finding of stent occlusion which is confirmed by ERCP

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Stent migration

    Radiologic finding of migration through Abdomen X-ray or CT scan

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Re-intervention

    Endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage or Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Adverse event

    acute cholangitis, acute cholecystitis, acute pancreatitis

    Measured: 1 year

  5. Overall survival

    Timespan from the diagnosis to the death

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing fully covered self-expandable metal stent with an anchoring external plastic stent and uncovered self-expandable metal stent in people with Malignant Biliary Obstruction, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sang Hyub Lee, MD, PhD (82-2072-2228, gidoctor@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of patent stent (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 2 Feb 2022.
