Filter by:The study is designed as a multicenter prospective registry study evaluating the efficacy of the self-assembling peptide in the prevention of stricture formation after endoscopic resection as part of standard medical care. No experimental interventions will be performed.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ProTractX3™ DCB for the treatment of benign esophageal strictures.
Rationale: The study hypothesizes that NKI followed by endoscopic bougie dilation therapy will result in an increased dysphagia-free period, a reduction of endoscopic procedures and dysphagia-related quality of life, and lower costs, when compared with the standard endoscopic bougie dilation (EBD) in recurrent esophagogastric anastomotic strictures. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of needle-knife incision (NKI) followed by EBD compared to standard EBD in patients with recurrent esophagogastric anastomotic strictures. Study design: This multicenter study is an randomized controlled trial in which NKI followed by EBD will be compared with standard EBD. Study population: Patients with recurrent dysphagia (at least 1 and a maximum of 5 previous dilations) due to an anastomotic esophagogastric stricture that requires treatment with repeated endoscopic bougie dilations. Intervention : The intervention to be investigated is the addition of NKI therapy to EBD to 18 mm esophageal diameter. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome of this study will be EBD-free time during follow-up of 6 months. Secondary outcome parameters will be the number of endoscopic procedures for treatment of dysphagia, quality of life (QoL), cost-reduction and cost-effectiveness.
This study aims to evaluate mitomycin C as an adjunct to endoscopic treatment of esophageal strictures. This is a crossover, controlled, clinical trial in which children with esophageal stricture will be randomized in two groups to receive either topical mitomycin or no additional treatment during standard esophageal dilation session.
