Prospective Multicenter Evaluation of a New Short-access-cholangioscope for Biliary Duct Strictures...

Karl Storz GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) company developed a cholangioscopic device, which is designed to give a better flexibility to the cholangioscopy tip in order to enable optimal diagnostic and therapeutic precondition. Other than the conventional mother-baby technique, the insertion of the cholangioscope (baby part) is done by a port at the side of a specially developed duodenoscope (mother part) which is prepositioned distally to the control unit, near to the patient's mouth. Better manoeuverability of the device tip will lead to both a better accuracy in taking biopsies as well as a better flexibility in lithotripsy manoeuvres. This study is designed to test the efficiency of the device in relation to this assumption.

Dose-escalation Study of GSK2330672 in Japanese Healthy Male Volunteers

Cholestasis

This study will be the first to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics following single dose of 10 milligrams (mg) to 180 mg of GSK2330672 in Japanese healthy subjects. This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalating and incomplete block crossover study to be conducted in 16 Japanese healthy subjects. Study will be conducted in four periods; subjects will receive either placebo or GSK2330672 (10 mg, 30 mg, 90 mg or 180 mg based on randomization) in each treatment period. Each period will be separated by washout period (at least 6 days from dosing). Total duration of study for each subject will be approximately 5 weeks from the first dosing to follow up visit.

Primary Versus Secondary Metal Stent Implantation in PTBD

Bile Duct ObstructionExtrahepatic Cholestasis

The aim is to compare percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) with primary metal stent implantation (one stage-procedure) with PTBD with secondary metal stent implantation in terms of adverse events.

Diabetes MellitusIntrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy1 more

There is limited knowledge about the extent of the impact of maternal metabolic diseases (MD) and/or alterations in maternal serum lipid content upon neonatal lipid distribution and phenotypes. This observational feasibility study aims to investigate the effect of maternal MD on fat distribution, lipid content and metabolic phenotype of different neonatal tissues. We will explore whether differences in tissue fat distribution and lipid content are observed in the neonates of women with MD during pregnancy, compared to those who have a healthy, uncomplicated pregnancy and if there are changes in how the different tissues work (e.g. cardiac function). If there is evidence to show that there are alterations during pregnancy in children of women with MD, this will help inform potential interventions to ensure optimal child health.

Paclitaxel Eluting Covered Metallic Stent for Unresectable Malignant Bile Duct Obstruction

Bile Duct Obstruction

The primary goal is to determine stent patency and overall survival of the conventional covered self expandable metallic stent versus paclitaxel eluting covered self expandable metallic stent in unresectable malignant bile duct stricture. The secondary goals are to assess reinterventions, complications, technical difficulties, and physician graded ease of placement and to assess toxicity of paclitaxel eluting covered self expandable metallic stent.

Endoscopic Treatment of Biliary Strictures After LTX: Balloon Dilatation Versus Stent Placement...

Biliary ObstructionBiliary Stenosis1 more

Background and Study Aims: Biliary strictures are a major cause of morbidity following liver transplantation with an overall incidence between 10 and 30 %. Up to now biliary strictures were dilated subsequently one to three plastic stents with a diameter of eight to ten F were inserted. In general, stents were exchanged in two to three months intervals over one year. In the present prospective controlled study, efficacy and complication rates of balloon dilation have been compared with dilation plus stenting. Patients and Methods: XY patients with high-grade biliary strictures (anastomotic and non-anastomotic) were enrolled in this prospective study in random order. X patients were treated by endoscopic balloon dilatation and Y by balloon dilatation plus plastic stent placement in six to eight weeks intervals. The primary end point was permanent opening of the biliary obstruction of 12 months. Number of endoscopic interventions and complications of the procedures were monitored.
