About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Single Blind Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety Comparing Niti-S Mira-Cover III Biliary Stent With ComVi Biliary Covered Stent in Patients With Malignant Biliary Obstruction

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of Niti-S Mira-Cover III Biliary Stent with Comvi Biliary Covered Stent for the treatment of malignant biliary obstruction.

Read the detailed description

In patients with malignant biliary obstruction, endoscopic placement of biliary stents offers similar technical success rates. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP)-guided stent placement has become the preferred approach to palliate malignant biliary obstruction. The major mechanisms of self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) occlusion are tumor ingrowth, tumor overgrowth, and epithelial hyperplasia. These mechanisms provide the rationale for developing a drug-eluting stent in order to improve stent patency. Limited data exist regarding outcomes of paclitaxel-eluting stents in malignant biliary obstruction. This study is to prospectively compare the effectiveness and safety of paclitaxel-eluting covered metal stent and covered metal stent for the treatment of malignant biliary obstruction.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cumulative stent patency during 6months after stent placement

    Stent patency is defined as absence of stent obstruction and confirmed by computed tomography (CT) or ERCP.

    Measured: 6 month

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Stent migration

    Stent migration is defined as an obvious dislodgement from the intended and original implant position and confirmed by radiography, CT, or ERCP.

    Measured: 6 month

  2. Secondary stent insertion due to recurrent biliary obstruction

    Measured: 6 month

  3. Mean survival

    Measured: 6 month

  4. Adverse events

    Measured: 6 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Paclitaxel-eluting metal Stent and Covered Metal Stent in people with Biliary Neoplasms and Biliary Obstruction, run by Taewoong Medical Co., Ltd. at 5 sites 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 11 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

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?

Cumulative stent patency during 6months after stent placement (time frame: 6 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02460432, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 Apr 2017.
