The Archimedes Biodegradable Biliary and Pancreatic Stents (ARCHIMEDES)

March 17, 2021 updated by: Istituto Clinico Humanitas

A Prospective, Single Arm Study to Evaluate the Feasibility of the Archimedes Biodegradable Biliary and Pancreatic Stents Placement

This is a prospective, phase II, single-centre, non-randomised, single-arm study, enrolling patients with benign and malignant bilio-pancreatic diseases with an indication to biliary or pancreatic plastic stent positioning during ERCP.

On procedure day, the study team will confirm that the patient meets all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria.

The patient will undergo the ABS insertion and monitored and follow-up accordingly to biodegration variant.
