Magnetic System for Stomach Outlet Blockage
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new magnetic device system to treat gastric outlet obstruction—a blockage that prevents food from leaving your stomach. Instead of traditional surgery, the device uses magnetic compression to create a new passage for food to pass through.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have gastric outlet obstruction (a blockage preventing food from leaving your stomach) and your doctor believes you need a gastroenterostomy (a surgical connection between stomach and intestine)
- You have no prior stomach or intestinal surgery, trauma, implants, or conditions that would prevent this procedure
- You do not have a pacemaker or defibrillator implanted in your body
- You can have endoscopy (a camera tube passed through your mouth) and can be treated with this technique
- You have no active infections requiring antibiotics, unhealed ulcers, or bleeding lesions in your stomach
- You are willing to attend all follow-up visits for at least 90 days and follow study instructions

This trial tests a new magnetic device that creates a connection between parts of your stomach or small intestine without needing stitches, for people with certain blockages or digestive issues.
This trial compares two surgical procedures to relieve stomach blockage caused by advanced stomach cancer that cannot be removed. The goal is to find which method better helps patients eat and improves quality of life.
This trial compares two ways to bypass a blockage in your stomach caused by cancer near the pancreas or duodenum. Both approaches create a new connection so food can pass through, but one uses a camera-guided tube (endoscopic) and the other is surgical. The study will see which works better for your symptoms and quality of life.
This trial compares three ways to relieve a stomach or duodenal blockage caused by pancreatic cancer: placing a stent, performing a bypass with a thin tube (endoscopy), or surgical bypass. It aims to find which option helps patients eat and feel better sooner.
This trial compares two surgical methods to bypass a blocked stomach outlet caused by advanced stomach cancer, helping patients eat and digest food more easily. It aims to see which operation gives better relief with fewer complications.
This trial compares two ways to create a new opening between your stomach and intestine using a special endoscope (a thin tube with a camera). The goal is to help food pass through when a blockage is preventing it, and to see if a newer technique with a balloon is safer or more effective than the current method.
