Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 80 years.
- Benign biliary stricture with postoperative injury or PSC or anastomotic-stricture; and indicated for ERCP procedure.
- Restenosis after plain balloon dilation with at least 2 previous balloon dilation sessions and recurrence of biliary obstructive symptoms/signs or being managed with implantable prosthetics (e.g. plastic stents).
- Greater than 40% stenosis of the biliary tract via ERCP.
- Total serum bilirubin \>2 mg/dL. Alkaline phosphatase level \>3 times higher than normal level. \*Note: This IC is waved if the patient is being managed with implantable prosthetics.
- Type I, II, III and IV Benign biliary duct strictures. Dominant stricture being accessible by balloon catheter.
- Stricture length \<4 cm.
- Not currently listed for liver transplantation.
- Voluntary participation and provided written informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding or plan to get pregnant in next 12 months.
- Benign biliary strictures caused by pancreatic pseudocyst compression.
- Malignant biliary obstruction.
- Biliary obstruction associated with an attack of acute pancreatitis.
- Inability to pass guidewire across stricture.
- Subjects with cholangitis or bile leak or duct fistula.
- Contraindication for Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or anesthesia or deep sedation or MRI.
- Subject with an internal/external biliary drainage catheter.
- Subjects with surgically altered gastro/duodenal/jejunal anatomy (e.g. Roux-Y-loop, choledochojejunostomy).
- Subject with symptomatic duodenal stenosis (with gastric stasis)
- Active systemic infection.
- Allergy to paclitaxel or any components of the delivery system.
- Currently undergoing required thoracic or abdominal cavity radiation therapy.
- Has life expectancy \<12 months.
- Unwilling or unable to comply with the follow-up study requirements.
