NCT03763214

Brief Summary

In this randomized trial two two self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) for treatment of malignant biliary strictures are investigated. A newly developed PTFE (Polytetrafluorethylen) (Teflon) stent is tested versus standard covered metal stents. PFTE (Teflon) coating promises improved formability over standard silicone-coated stents, easier removal through the soft surface, and significantly reduced tumor growth through the impermeable surface.
