LAMS Choledochoduodenostomies: With or Without Coaxial Plastic Stent (BAMPI)

April 16, 2024 updated by: Joan B Gornals, Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge

Multicenter, Randomized and Comparative Study of Lumen-apposing Metal Stents With or Without Coaxial Plastic Stent for Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Transmural Biliary Drainage

The aim of the study is to evaluate technical, clinical and safety outcomes of lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) with and without a coaxial double-pigtail plastic stent (DPS) in EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomies (CDS) for the management of biliary obstruction.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The introduction of specific biliary lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) represented a great technical improvement in EUS-guided transmural Biliary drainage (BD) of distal malignant biliary obstruction Data is still limited, but recent studies and reviews have been reported with acceptable technical and clinical success. However, some concerns exist regarding its safety, as secondary adverse events

There are doubts concerning the possible benefits derived from the insertion of double-pigtail plastic stents (DPS) within the lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) in the EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (CDS). Our hypothesis is that adding a coaxial plastic stent may offer benefits in terms of safety in CDS.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: EUSDB-LAMS

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided choledochoduodenostomy with lumen-apposing metal stent . Formal indication on biliopancreatic drainage according to the instruction forms of the manufacturer.

EUSDB-LAMS (Endoscopic ultrasound guided biliary drainage with lumen-apposing metal stent)

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided transmural biliary drainage is with lumen-apposing metal stent is a formal indication according to the instruction forms of the manufacturer.
Experimental: EUSDB-LAMS-Pigtail

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided choledochoduodenostomy with lumen-apposing metal stents without coaxial plastic stent. Formal indication on biliopancreatic drainage according to the instruction forms of the manufacturer.

In this arm, a double pigtail through the lumen apposing metal stent will be inserted as an axis-orienting stent.

EUSDB-LAMS-Pigtial (Endoscopic ultrasound guided biliary drainage with lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) and axis-orienting double-pigtail plastic stent through LAMS)

Biliary drainage guided by endoscopic ultrasound: Addition or not, of a axis-orienting plastic stent, mostly, double-pigtail stent through the lumen of a lumen-apposing metal stent

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety (Adverse events)
Time Frame: 12 months
Safety will be measured by careful and comparative evaluation of adverse effects in both groups.
12 months
Recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO)
Time Frame: 12 months
Recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) has been defined as a composite endpoint of either occlusion or migration.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical success
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Resolution of jaundice or drop in total bilirubin level by > 50% within 2 weeks after the EUS-CD.
2 weeks
Technical success
Time Frame: 24 hours.
Technical success was defined as successful placement of the LAMS between the bile duct and the duodenal lumen, creating a transmural ostomy. To evaluate the correct position of the transmural stent, the deployment of the internal flap in the lumen of the bile duct must be verified by ultrasound vision and the internal flap by endoscopic vision.
24 hours.
Survival
Time Frame: 12 months
Survival is defined as the time elapsed between biliary drainage and the end of follow-up, either due to death and cessation of follow-up.
12 months
