Kidney stent reflux study pulled before enrolling anyone
NCT ID NCT06720740
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to measure how often urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureter after placing a special stent (RELIEF) in people with kidney stones. Researchers planned to use bladder X-rays to check for reflux and track any symptoms. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
