This early study tests a new device called TIES®, which is surgically implanted to help people with permanent ileostomy or colostomy control when they empty their bowels. Ten adults will be followed for 16 weeks to see if the device is safe, works well, and improves their quality…

This study looks at whether a patient's own fat cells, processed and injected into hard-to-heal gastrointestinal fistulas, can help close them. Fifty adults with benign fistulas will receive the treatment during endoscopy. The goal is to find out which factors lead to successful …

This study tests whether taking pancreatic enzyme pills can help people with severe acute pancreatitis regain lost weight and improve nutrition. The trial will include 188 adults aged 18-60 who have lost at least 10% of their body weight due to the disease. Participants will rece…

This study looks at adults hospitalized with a severe flare of ulcerative colitis that didn't get better with IV steroids. It compares taking two drugs together (infliximab and tofacitinib) versus taking just one of them. The goal is to see if the combo leads to faster symptom re…

This study tests a drug called esomeprazole, given through an IV, to prevent stress ulcers and acid reflux in 50 adults recovering from surgery in the intensive care unit (ICU). The goal is to see if it can keep stomach acid low enough to reduce the risk of bleeding. Participants…

This trial compares two procedures—balloon dilation and per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM)—to see which better relieves swallowing difficulties in children with achalasia cardia. Seventy children aged 3-17 will be randomly assigned to one procedure, and if it fails, they can swit…

This study compares two ways of doing a surgery called POEM for people with type II achalasia, a condition that makes it hard to swallow. The standard method uses a long tunnel under the lining of the esophagus, while the experimental method uses a shorter tunnel. The goal is to …

This study will follow over 2,300 patients in India who undergo ERCP, a procedure to treat bile duct problems. Researchers want to see how often pancreatitis happens after ERCP and how severe it is. By following standard safety steps, they hope to find ways to lower this risk.

This pilot study will check if simethicone, a medicine used to reduce gas during endoscopy, makes it harder to detect H. pylori bacteria. About 100 adults with a positive H. pylori test will take simethicone or a placebo before their procedure. The goal is to see if the drug lowe…

This trial compares two techniques used when standard bile duct access fails during ERCP: pre-cut sphincterotomy and the double guidewire technique. Researchers will enroll 840 adults with difficult bile duct cannulation to see which method is safer and more successful. The goal …

This study will test whether a computer model can accurately predict the chance of finding precancerous colon polyps in 1,000 Indian adults undergoing a routine colonoscopy. The model uses basic health information like age, sex, and lifestyle factors. If it works well, it could h…

This study will examine 4,000 adults aged 40 and older in India using high-definition endoscopy to find early stomach cancer and precancerous changes. Participants are people already scheduled for an upper GI endoscopy due to digestive symptoms. The goal is to learn how common th…
