About this study

At present, endoscopic therapy is the preferred method to solve biliary or pancreatic diseases. And EUS-guided stent implantation and drainage of pancreatic pseudocyst is the main method in Endoscopic treatment of pancreatic pseudocyst. However, blockage of stent is a problem that has puzzled endoscopists for a long time. The mechanism of stent blockage is related to the reflux of gastrointestinal contents into the stent. Although plastic stents are widely used in patients who needed drainage. However, the average free time for stent is only 77 to 126 days, leading to the need for stent replacement in most patients within 3 months. As one end of the double pigtail stent used for drainage of pancreatic pseudocyst may be located in the stomach, it may cause the stent to be blocked by the contents of the stomach. Therefore, multiple stents or additional stents or drainage tube are often needed to further strengthen the drainage.

It seems that the mechanism of stent blockage are associated with gastrointestinal contents reflux. And stents required be replaced again by endoscopic approach when jamming. However, EUS and ERCP are difficult, costly, and may be with complications. Additional operations will increase the risks and costs. Therefore, a stent that can effectively prevent reflux, solve clinical problems, and effectively prolong stent patency time is urgently needed.

Therefore, a stent that can effectively prevent reflux, solve clinical problems, and effectively prolong stent patency time is urgently needed.

The extended enteral anti-reflux stent developed by our research team has potential advantages in prolonging the patency period of the stent and preventing secondary infection of pseudocysts. In this study, we aim to evaluate the effect of the stent on the drainage of pancreatic pseudocyst.

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 8 Feb 2023. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Yonghui Huang, archiater (13911765322, chengzhuopku@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disappearance rate of pseudocyst(PDR) after stent implantation (time frame: in 6 months). 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 NCT05716594, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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 8 Feb 2023.
