About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of the Novel SpydrBlade Flex With Radiofrequency and Microwave Ablation Flexible Bipolar for Colorectal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection - A Prospective Study

This study is an interventional, prospective, single-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel radiofrequency and microwave ablation flexible bipolar (SpydrBlade Flex, CREO Medical, UK) for colorectal ESD in patients with superficial colorectal neoplasia.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective study with the following study Objectives:

  1. To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel radiofrequency and microwave ablation flexible bipolar (SpydrBlade Flex, CREO Medical, UK) for colorectal ESD.
  2. To assess the impact of the procedure on patient recovery time and postoperative adverse event.

This study is an interventional, prospective, single-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel radiofrequency and microwave ablation flexible bipolar (SpydrBlade Flex, CREO Medical, UK) for colorectal ESD in patients with superficial colorectal neoplasia. Patients will undergo a ESD for superficial colorectal neoplasia. All ESD procedures will be performed by expert endoscopists with at least 50 prior experience of ESD.

Being tested
Colorectal ESD with SpydrBlade Flex
Keywords

Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Colorectal ESD with SpydrBlade FlexDevice

    The allocated intervention would be performed under sedation or monitored anaesthesia by experienced endoscopists with at least 50 case experience of colon ESD.

    Colon ESD procedure would be performed as per described in the literature. After submucosal injection of solution to create a cushion, mucosal incision and submucosal dissection would be performed with the SydrBlade Flex. Submucosal plane dissection will be performed using the SpydrBlade Flex (BRF, cutting frequency 400kHz, power setting 35W). The exact resection strategy would be according to the endoscopists' preference, including different adjunctive techniques such as countertraction, tunnelling or pocket creation method. Upon completion of ESD, the resultant mucosal defect would be examined for any perforation or bleeding.

What is being measured

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

  1. En-bloc resection rate

    Defined by complete macroscopic resection of the target neoplasia in one single specimen

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. R0 resection rate

    Defined by histologically margin negative resection (Both horizontal and vertical margins)

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Curative resection rate

    Defined by R0 resection and fulfilling existing histological curative resection criteria based on JGES guidelines

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Adverse event rate

    Overall adverse event rate, according to ASGE lexicon

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Rate of adverse event - hemorrhage

    Rate of intraprocedural and post procedural delayed hemorrhage

    Measured: 30 days

  5. Rate of adverse event - perforation

    Rate of intraprocedural and post procedural delayed perforation

    Measured: 30 days

  6. Rate of adverse event - post-ESD coagulation syndrome

    Defined by post-procedural abdominal pain and systemic inflammatory response

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Colorectal ESD with SpydrBlade Flex in people with Colon Polyp and Colon Neoplasia, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Dec 2024. 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 Hong Kong. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hon Chi Yip, MBChB (35052627, hcyip@surgery.cuhk.edu.hk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

En-bloc resection rate (time frame: 30 days). 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 4 Dec 2024.
