Hydrogel patch may seal painful anal fistulas without surgery
NCT ID NCT07035925
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new hydrogel (ECMT-100) to treat anorectal fistulas—abnormal tunnels between the anal canal and skin. Ten adults with a single high fistula will receive the gel to see if it safely closes the external openings and improves symptoms like incontinence and quality of life. The goal is to offer a less invasive option than traditional surgery.
