Interventions
The GIE DCB is a balloon catheter with a 3 stage inflatable balloon coated with a proprietary coating containing the drug and carriers.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 80 years.
- Benign esophageal stricture with diameter less than 10 mm (barium esophagram).
- Dysphagia score of 2 to 4 (Ogilvie Dysphagia Score).
- Recurrent stricture after at least 2 previous balloon/bougie dilation or stricturotomy sessions.
- Stricture total length ≤ 7 cm. Tandem or adjacent strictures are allowed if the strictures are caused by the same underlining disease.
- Ability to undergo periodic endoscopic follow-up.
- Voluntary participation and provided written informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding or plan to get pregnant in next 12 months.
- Contraindication to endoscopy, anesthesia or deep sedation.
- Benign esophageal stricture due to extrinsic esophageal compression.
- Currently required chest radiation therapy.
- Malignant esophageal stricture.
- Stricture total length \> 7 cm or esophageal strictures at multiple locations where the total stricture length exceeds 7 cm
- Dysphagia related to primary motility disorders, such as achalasia, diffused esophageal spasm, ineffective esophageal motility (IEM), hypertensive lower esophageal sphincter, etc.
- Active erosive esophagitis.
- Present esophageal ulceration, perforation, leak, fistula, or varices.
- Concurrent gastric and/or duodenal obstruction.
- Active systemic infection.
- Allergy to paclitaxel or any components of the delivery system.
- Severe coagulation disorders or current use of anticoagulant for comorbidities.
- Chronic steroid use for any medical conditions unless subject is willing to undergo a 4-week washout and discontinue steroid use.
- Received steroid injections into target stricture in the last 4 weeks
- +6 more criteria
