ComVi and D-type Stent in Malignant GOO

April 22, 2013 updated by: Sun Gyo Lim, Ajou University School of Medicine

A Newly Designed Conformable Uncovered Versus Covered Self-expandable Metallic Stent for Palliation of Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction: a Prospective, Randomized Multicenter Study

Covered self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS) have been used to prevent tumor ingrowth, a common complication of uncovered SEMSs. However, they have revealed a high incidence of stent migration in patients with unresectable malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). A conformable covered SEMS was introduced to overcome both stent migration and tumor ingrowth. The aims of this study were to evaluate the clinical outcomes of newly designed conformable covered and uncovered SEMS for palliation of malignant GOO.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: uncovered D-type stent
uncovered D-type stent, which effectively reduces stent migration, especially in malignant colorectal obstruction
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: double-layered ComVi stent
double-layered ComVi stent, which is a modified covered stent with an additional outer bare wire mesh to overcome both tumor ingrowth and stent migration

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
the stent patency time from stent insertion to restenosis due to stent malfunction or death
Time Frame: Up to 1 years
Up to 1 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
stent malfunction (e.g., stent migration or occlusion due to tumor ingrowth/overgrowth) and the reintervention rate
Time Frame: up to 1 years
