About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial to Demonstrate the Ancora-SB Overtube Complete Positioning and Optical Visualization During Endoscopic Procedures for Diagnosis and Treatment in the Small Intestine

Demonstrate superiority of the Aspero Medical Ancora-SB balloon Overtube compared to the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube.

Read the detailed description

The study objective, demonstrate superiority of the Aspero Ancora-SB balloon overtube compared to the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube, is necessary for adoption by clinicians. Broad adoption is expected to improve procedure success rates, reduce time to diagnosis or treatment (thereby, improving patient outcomes), and reduce the burden and costs of care for patients, providers, and insurers. Investigators propose to recruit patients scheduled for enteroscopy and use capsule endoscopy to identify patients with lesions in the middle third of the small bowel. The primary outcome of interest is success in identifying the lesion, which indicates sufficient balloon control to reach and visualize the site.

What participants receive

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

  • EnteroscopyDevice

    A procedure that uses a specially equipped endoscope to examine the small intestine lining. An enteroscopy uses an endoscope, a tube with a light and camera on the end and the endoscope, in the case of this study, is equipped with a single balloon overtube to advance the scope deeper into the small intestine, to reach the middle third of the small bowel.

What is being measured

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

  1. Device Superiority

    Demonstrate superiority of the Aspero Medical Ancora-SB balloon Overtube compared to the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube. Superiority of the Ancora-SB Balloon Overtube will be demonstrated if it achieves a success rate of ≥75% compared to a success rate of 50% with the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube.

    Measured: Enteroscopy Procedure

Model description
This is a double-blind randomized 1:1 controlled post-market study; the investigator and the subject will be blind to the device. A qualified staff member will assist the endoscopist by performing the preparation, insertion, and removal of the device the subject was randomized to, to ensure the investigator is blinded. The shaft and handle end of the Ancora-SB overtube will be the same as the Olympus ST-SB1 overtube.

Contact Chris Schultz, BS (9715067552, cschultz@ecr-inc.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Device Superiority (time frame: Enteroscopy Procedure). 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.
