New gel blocks blood flow to tumors and stops bleeding
NCT ID NCT06170619
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at how well a gel-like material called Obsidio works to block blood vessels in people with hypervascular tumors or bleeding. 125 adults were treated, and researchers checked if the vessels were successfully blocked and if there were any serious side effects within 30 days. The goal was to confirm the device is safe and effective in real-world use.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Obsidio Conformable Embolic (a gel-like material injected into blood vessels to block blood flow)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this registry confirms that Obsidio is a safe and effective option for blocking blood vessels to control bleeding or shrink tumors.
- What could go wrong
- This is a completed registry with 125 participants, so results are available but may not apply to all patients. Risks include unintended blockage of other vessels or injury to the target organ.
