NCT ID NCT05761483

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 40 liver transplant patients who develop non-anastomotic biliary strictures—narrowing of the bile ducts not at the connection point. Doctors use an endoscope to place plastic stents and then track how well the strictures resolve. The goal is to gather real-world data to improve treatment guidelines.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this registry could help doctors better treat bile duct narrowing after liver transplants, improving patient outcomes.

What could go wrong

This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove which treatment is best. Results may not apply to all patients.
