New endoscopic bypass may offer longer relief for Cancer-Related stomach blockages

NCT ID NCT03259763

Summary

This study compared two less-invasive endoscopic procedures to relieve stomach blockages caused by inoperable cancer. Researchers tested a newer bypass technique against the standard method of placing a stent to see which was safer and more effective at keeping the blockage from returning. The goal was to help patients eat more comfortably and reduce the need for repeat procedures.
