About this study

Official title: Gastrointestinal Microbiomes in Patients of Recurrent Common Bile Duct Stones After Endoscopic Sphincterotomy(EST)

Bile duct stones is a common biliary tract disease, which is characterized by high morbidity and frequent recurrence. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an effective therapy for common bile duct stones, and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) which associated with recurrent cholangiolithiasis often carried out on difficult intubation or extracting stones, probably due to enhanced reflux of intestinal contents that changes the microenvironment. Patients with cholangiolithiasis were consecutively recruited and their bile was collected intra-operatively for high-throughput experiments. Pyrosequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA gene was performed to characterize the microbiota in the bile and other body fluids. A liquid chromatography mass spectrometry-based method was used to profile bile composition. Clinical manifestation, microbiome, and bile composition were compared between patients with or without recurrent of bile duct stones. The aim of our study was to identify the impact of microbiomes on the recurrent of bile duct stones after ERCP+EST therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cholelithiasis and Choledocholithiasis, run by The Second Hospital of Nanjing Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 5 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 5 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 1 site in China. 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 Miao Lin (086-25-58509932, miaolinxh@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes of Bacteria in Body Fluid (time frame: 3 years). 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 5 Apr 2017.
