Transparent Cap-assisted SpyGlass for Biliary Stricture

Start date: April 14, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The transparent cap-assisted endoscope has the function of fixing field of view and increasing visual space. It has been widely used in gastrointestinal examination and treatment.

NCT ID: NCT04604652 Completed - Clinical trials for Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Open-Label Study of HTD1801 in Adult Subjects With Primary Biliary Cholangitis

PRONTO-PBC
Start date: May 27, 2021

The purpose of this open-label study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HDT1801 (BUDCA) over 12 weeks in adult subjects with PBC who have an inadequate response to standard therapy. Inadequate response is defined as persistently elevated serum alkaline phosphatase at greater than or equal to1.5 times the upper limits of normal for the testing lab in spite of having been on adequate doses of standard therapy with UDCA (ursodeoxycholic acid) at 13-15 mg/kg for at least 6 months.

NCT ID: NCT04550819 Not yet recruiting - Bile Duct Stricture Clinical Trials

Intraintestinal Extended Biliary Stents Preventing Duodenobiliary Reflux in Patients With Biliary Stricture

Start date: October 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Metal or plastic biliary stents placement under Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) is a well-established treatment for patients with benign biliary obstruction to relieve jaundice, a palliative treatment for patients with unresectable malignant pancreaticobiliary obstruction and a bridge to surgery for patients with resectable disease. The main limitation of long time plastic stents is stents occlusion. Biliary plastic stents are changed every 2 to 3 months due to an expected median patency from 77 to 126 days.Metal stents present a lower risk of recurring biliary occlusion, yet high cost and stents occlusion are eventually inevitable. The mechanism of biliary stents occlusion include biliary sludge of the accumulation of bacteria and duodenal biliary reflux .The anti-reflux barrier of Oddi's sphincter disappears after the insertion of biliary stents and the pressure in bile duct lowers the duodenale, which cause the retrograde flow of duodenal material into the biliary ducts. Besides, ordinary biliary plastic stent is short which can also shortens the length of duodenal biliary reflux . Therefore, trying to prevent the duodenal biliary reflux is very important in reducing biliary stents occlusion and it is gradually concerned by clinical researchers. Some studies have showed that plastic stents with antireflux valves can effectively reduce the biliary stent stricture and prolong the stents patency, which means reducing duodenobiliary reflux is surely useful for keeping biliary stent patency.So,we assume to explore an innovatively intraintestinal extended biliary stents (reformed with nasobiliary tube ) as substitution for ordinary biliary plastic stent to prevent the duodenobiliary reflux by extending the length of duodenal content reflux and avoid the stents shift via suspending in intrahepatic duct. In this study,we will design a multicenter stratified randomized controlled trial to compare the patency of intraintestinal extended biliary stents and ordinary plastic biliary stents in patients with malignant or benign biliary obstruction respectively and evaluate the effect of intraintestinal extended biliary stents for the prevention of duodenobiliary reflux.

NCT ID: NCT03788655 Recruiting - Bile Duct Cancer Clinical Trials

Metal Stents (Moving Cell Stent) for Inoperable Tumors of the Bile Duct Tract

Start date: December 31, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In this feasibility study (non-randomized), the applicability of a new "moving cell" biliary stents (by HILZO) in Klatskin tumors (bile duct obstruction) will be investigated. The HILZO Moving-Cell Stent to be examined here is a non-coated metal stent with a novelty. The meshes have a diameter of 4 mm, which is rather small compared to most other stents. This significantly increases the radial force and thus the stability of the stent. Furthermore, ingrowth by tumors in the stent is difficult. The special feature is that the individual meshes can easily be stretched to 10 mm without changing the stability of the stent. This allows a second stent to pass through the first to another segment of liver.

NCT ID: NCT03763214 Recruiting - Pancreas Cancer Clinical Trials

PTFE Stents for Treatment of Malignant Biliary Strictures

Start date: March 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this randomized trial two two self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) for treatment of malignant biliary strictures are investigated. A newly developed PTFE (Polytetrafluorethylen) (Teflon) stent is tested versus standard covered metal stents. PFTE (Teflon) coating promises improved formability over standard silicone-coated stents, easier removal through the soft surface, and significantly reduced tumor growth through the impermeable surface.

Kaffes Stent in the Management of Post-surgical Biliary Strictures

Start date: July 1, 2018
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Post-surgical biliary strictures are common especially after cholecystectomy. Standard treatment involves the performance of multiple procedures over a 1 year period at least using several plastic stents to achieve permanent dilatation of these strictures. Metallic stents have the theoretical benefit of absence of need of multiple sessions. These strictures however are frequently very close to the hilum and thus previously considered a contraindication for insertion of metallic stents for the fear of occlusion of the contralateral ducts. Metallic stent migration is also a frequent problem. The use of a metallic stent that is short and completely intraductal, in theory, should reduce the risk of stent migration. This is a randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of a short metallic intraductal stent to the conventional treatment which is multiple plastic stents. In cases with a stricture reaching or close to the hilum a technique is used to avoid obstruction of the contralateral ducts which is insertion of a 7 French plastic stent alongside the metallic stent.

Suspended Overlength Biliary Stents Preventing Duodenobiliary Reflux in Patients With Biliary Stricture

Start date: January 11, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Endoscopic insertion of plastic or metal stents in bile duct under endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is a well established treatment of distal malignant biliary obstruction.Biliary stents are widely used to relieve symptoms of malignant biliary stricture.Now, the mainly used biliary stents include plastic and metal stents. The main limitation of long time plastic stents is stents occlusion. Biliary plastic stents are changed every 2 to 3 months due to an expected median patency from 77 to 126 days.Metal stents present a lower risk of recurring biliary occlusion, yet high cost and stents occlusion are eventually inevitable. The mechanism of biliary stents occlusion include biliary sluge of the accumulation of bacteria and duodenal biliary reflux .The anti-reflux barrier of Oddi's sphincter disappears after the insertion of biliary stents and the presure in bile duct lowers the duodenals, which cause the retrograde flow of duodenal material into the biliary ducts. Besides, ordinary biliary plastic stent is short which can also shortens the length of duodenal biliary reflux . Therefore, trying to prevent the duodenal biliary reflux is very important in reducing biliary stents occlusion and it is gradually concerned by clinical researchers. Some studies have showed that plastic stents with antireflux valves can effectively reduce the biliary stent stricture and prolong the stents patency, which means reducing duodenobiliary reflux is surely useful for keeping biliary stent patency.So,we assume to explore an innovatively suspended overlength biliary stents (made from nasobiliary tube with length of 26cm or 30cm) as substitution for ordinary biliary plastic stent to prevent the duodenobiliary reflux by extending the length of duodenal content reflux and avoid the stents shift via suspending in intrahepatic duct. In this study,we will design a randomized controlled trial to compare the patency of different length of suspended overlength biliary stents and ordinary plastic biliary stents in patients with distal malignant biliary obstruction to evaluate the effect and safety of suspended overlength biliary stents for the prevention of duodenobiliary reflux and the effect of different length of the stents.
