Malignant Obstruction ZILVER Against Routine Therapy (MOZART I)
This study has been completed.
Sponsored by: Cook
Information provided by: Cook
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00196105
  Purpose

This study compares the 6 mm nitinol Zilver biliary endoprostheses and the 10 mm nitinol Zilver biliary endoprostheses to the 10 mm Wallstent in appropriate patients in need of palliative treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.

Biliary Tract Neoplasms
Pancreatic Neoplasms
Jaundice, Obstructive
Device: Zilver biliary endoprostheses

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study
Official Title: Multicenter Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of the Nitinol ZILVER Expandable Endoprosthesis in the Palliation of Extrahepatic Malignant Biliary Obstruction

Further study details as provided by Cook:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Stent occlusion
  • Death

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Reinterventions
  • Complications
  • Technical placement difficulties
  • Physician-graded ease of placement

Study Start Date: September 2003
Estimated Study Completion Date: January 2008
Detailed Description:

This research is being done to determine if the new, FDA-cleared Zilver metal biliary stent is better than the conventional stents. The new Zilver stent may permit more accurate placement, may avoid some potential complications and last longer than the conventional stents. The study will also examine to find the best diameter of stent by comparing standard 10 mm stents to 6 mm Zilver stents.
