NCT04391153

Brief Summary

The management of biliary strictures depends on their correct pre-operative evaluation which remains challenging. Despite the emerging multitudes of new diagnostic opportunities- modalities we have today, there is still a large number of biliary stenosis misdiagnosed with a profound negative impact on the patients´ outcome. The study aims to proove the feasibility and to evaluate the impact of Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH) on the tissue diagnostic of biliary strictures.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proove the feasebility and the clinical place of FISH in the diagnostic of biliary strictures

    The the sensitivity (%) and specificity (%) of ERCP/ EUS with conventional tissue sampling - Brushing, forceps biopsy/EUS-FNA and ERCP/EUS with conventional tissue sampling completed with FISH in patients with suspected malignant stricture of the common bile duct are evaluated. Success (positivity) is defined by the presence of benign or malignant cells, adequate to make the final tissue diagnosis. Based on the previous studies and the experiences of our endoscopists and pathologist, we can expect the diagnostic yield with FISH will be increased of 20-30% in the study population (the samples size 96).

    1- 7 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • evaluate the impact of FISH on management of patients with biliary stricture.

    3-6 months

Study Arms (2)

conventional samplig

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients with biliary strictures udergo ERCP or EUS. Tissue specimens obtained via either of brush cytology, forceps biopsy or fine needle aspiration during ERCP or endosonography (EUS) were examined by routine cytology or histology methods. Gold standard for final diagnosis is the histology from surgical resection. In patients without surgery, a follow up of 12 months will be considered adequate to exclude or confirm malignant etiology.

Procedure: ERCP with tissue sampling

Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Tissue specimens obtained via either of brush cytology, forceps biopsy or fine needle aspiration during ERCP or endosonography (EUS) were examined by routine cytology or histology methods. In addition, FISH inlcuding fluorescence-based polynucleotide probes targeting chromosomes 3, 7, 17 and locus 9p21 was performed. Gold standard for final diagnosis is the histology from surgical resection. In patients without surgery, a follow up of 12 months will be considered adequate to exclude or confirm malignant etiology.

Interventions
