Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided transluminal drainage with 'Niti-S SPAXUS Stent' for the treatment of pancreatic pseudocyst.

Detailed description

'Niti-S SPAXUS Stent' is a newly designed lumen-apposing fully covered self-expandable metal stent. It is indicated for use in patients with pancreatic pseudocyst. Consecutive subject data should be collected at discharge, stent removal (day 30 or 60), and day 20 post Niti-S SPAXUS stent removal.

Outcome results

Primary

Number of Participants With Clinical Success

Clinical success is defined as ≥50% decrease in pancreatic pseudocyst size measured on Computed Tomography (CT)

Time frame: at stent removal (Day 30 or Day 60)

Population: The analysis is performed in the subjects who underwent the Niti-S SPAXUS stent and have the results of effectiveness assessment at the time point of the stent removal among those who satisfy the inclusion • exclusion criteria, consented to participate in the study

ArmMeasureValue (NUMBER)
Niti-S SPAXUS StentNumber of Participants With Clinical Success33 participants
Comparison: The clinical success rate at the time point of stent removal is reported 86.2% according to the approval data of the commercially available AXIOS stent submitted to the US FDA. The clinical success rates of EUS-guided transluminal drainage using a lumen-appending stent were 93.3% (29 cases), 100% (8 cases) and 100% (7 cases) respectively in the studies performed afterwards by Shah RJ (2015), Gornals JB (2012) and Moon JH (2014). The weighted average calculated for each study was about 96%.p-value: 0.05t-test, 2 sided
Secondary

Number of Participants With Procedural/Device Related Serious Adverse Events

The incidence of serious adverse events related to the procedure or the Niti-S SPAXUSTM stent is assessed at Day 20 after the stent removal

Time frame: up to 90 days (at Day 20 post stent removal)

Population: * Resulted in death or life threatening~ * Required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization ③ Resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity ④ Caused a congenital anomaly/birth defect

Number of Participants With Stent Removal Success

Stent removal success is defined as successful removal of the Niti-S SPAXUS stent using a standard endoscopic forceps or snare.

Time frame: up to 60 days (at stent removal, Day 30 or 60)

Population: When the Niti-S SPAXUSTM Stent is successfully removed by using forceps or snare through endoscopy as the treatment is succeeded clinically at Day 30 or 60 (± 10 days) according to standard procedures and the criteria for stent removal are met, it is considered as the stent removal success.

Technical success is defined as successful placement of the Niti-S SPAXUS stent across the gastric(or duodenal) wall to the pseudocyst with visualization of the pseudocyst fluid drainage through the stent by endoscopy.

Time frame: Day 1

Population: If the stent is deployed successfully in the gastrointestinal tract and the pseudocyst, and if the drainage is confirmed visually, it is considered technically successful
