Closing stomach defects with a stitching device
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a special stitching tool to close holes in the stomach after removing abnormal growths. It may help patients heal better after a routine procedure to remove suspicious tissue.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You need a procedure to remove a growth from the stomach lining (EMR or ESD)
- Your doctor thinks closing the removal site would be beneficial
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 20 and 40
- You are not pregnant and do not plan to become pregnant during the study

This study tests a new method for closing wounds in the stomach after removing abnormal tissue during an endoscopy. It may help people with stomach lesions heal better and reduce risks, but it is still being studied for safety and effectiveness.
This trial tests a disposable device that closes holes or tears in the stomach or intestines during an endoscopic procedure. It may help stop bleeding, seal fistulas, or repair perforations, potentially avoiding the need for surgery.
This trial tests a special stitching device that closes the area after removing a large colon polyp during a procedure called ESD (endoscopic submucosal dissection). The goal is to reduce the risk of bleeding or tears after the polyp is removed.
This study checks whether an endoscopy technique that brings tissue together safely closes several types of internal openings (like perforations or surgical leaks/defects). It also looks at whether the closures work well and have acceptable side effects.
This study compares two ways of closing a gap that forms after stomach removal surgery. The goal is to see if closing it reduces complications compared to leaving it open, which may help you recover better.
This study looks at early stomach cancer treated with ESD, a procedure to remove the tumor through the stomach lining, and how the depth of the scar relates to healing. It may help doctors predict better outcomes and improve the procedure for suitable patients.
