NCT03125148

Brief Summary

Malignant duodenal obstruction in patients not fit for surgery is treated by placing enteral stents during endoscopy. These patients may also have poor gastric motility. Hence bridging the pyloric opening with the stent along with the duodenal obstruction may deliver better symptomatic improvement. Both approaches are commonly clinically practiced but no formal comparative studies have been done to compare which one is better.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Any Change (2 Point Increase or Decrease) in Symptoms From Baseline

    Symptoms of nausea, regurgitation, bloating, fullness, belching, pain, and vomiting were recorded at baseline and then on follow-up after stent placement on a visual analog scale with 0 being no symptoms and 10 being severe symptoms. The visual analog scale used was: 0 No symptom to 10 Severe symptom: Drop by 2 points or more from baseline score after intervention was recorded as "Better" and increase in over 2 points from baseline after intervention was recorded as symptom getting "Worse". A -1 to +1 shift from baseline was considered as "Unchanged". Gastric emptying was objectively assessed at 48 hours after stent placement with no baseline testing. Over all quality of life change after stent placement over baseline was a subjective response from the patient as being "Satisfied", "Neutral", "Dissatisfied." Re-interventions and adverse events if any were recorded.

    Baseline (before stent) and follow-up (after stent) at 48 hrs (including gastric emptying study) and then symptom follow up at each clinic/telephone visit up to 6 months.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Technical Success: Stent Placed in the Desired Position as Per Randomization

    Day of stent deployment

  • Complications

    Up to 6 months after stent deployment

  • Gastric Emptying

    48 hours after stent placement

Study Arms (2)

Enteral stenting intraduodenal

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Enteral stent (Wallflex enteral stent) will be placed in the duodenum with the entire stent lying within the duodenum bridging the obstruction.

Device: Enteral stenting

Enteral stenting transpyloric

EXPERIMENTAL

Enteral stent (Wallflex enteral stent) will be placed in the duodenum with the stent bridging the obstruction and the pyloric opening with proximal end of the stent lying within the stomach

Device: Enteral stenting

Interventions

Enteral stent for malignant duodenal obstruction

Enteral stenting intraduodenalEnteral stenting transpyloric
