  Purpose

The SX-ELLA Stent Esophageal Degradable BD (BD Stent) is designed for dilation of benign esophageal lesions, namely: (1) stenosis (peptic, anastomotic or caustic) refractory to standard therapy, (2) achalasia refractory to standard therapy.

Procedure: Standard Dilations

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the SX ELLA Esophageal Degradable BD (BD Stent) Stent System

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The average number of dilations per patient within 3 months / 6 months following placement of an ELLA stent [ Time Frame: 3 - 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of patients remaining dysphagia and stricture free within 6 and 12 months after inclusion [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Time to recurrent significant dysphagia [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Time to dilation of recurrent stricture [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • 6 months and 12 months incidence of repeat dilation [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Serious and minor adverse events with possible or likely relation to the study Intervention [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Direct medicals costs: procedures, secondary interventions [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Quality of Life [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Technical success [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Observing proper deployment and placement of stent using endoscopic and radiographic imaging.

  • Assessment of presence of gold markers within the region of the esophagus at 3 months, if possible [ Time Frame: 6 - 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Assessment of presence of gold markers within the region of the esophagus at 3 months, using radiographic imaging, if possible, to check for remaining sections of stent that have not yet degraded.
