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 |
Study Start Date: | September 2003 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | January 2008 |
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.
