Hemostatic powder spray for lower GI bleeding
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This pilot study tests whether a special powder, sprayed through an endoscope, can safely and effectively stop bleeding in the lower part of the digestive tract.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have suspected bleeding from your lower intestines (colon or rectum).
- Your doctor plans to use an endoscopy to find and stop the bleeding.
- You are not allergic to the drugs sucralfate or tranexamic acid.
- You do not have a hole (perforation) in your stomach or intestines.

This trial tests two medications—tranexamic acid and sucralfate—applied during an endoscopy (a camera procedure) to stop bleeding caused by tumors in the upper digestive tract. The goal is to see which treatment works better at controlling the bleeding.
This trial tests whether spraying sucralfate (a medication that coats and protects the stomach lining) onto the site where a large polyp was removed can help prevent bleeding afterward. It is for people who take blood thinners and have a large polyp (1 cm or bigger).
This trial looks at how often bleeding happens after an upper scope (EGD) or colonoscopy in people who keep taking blood-thinning medicines during the procedure. The results may help doctors choose safer prep plans to lower bleeding risk.
This trial tests a powder called Nexpowder that is applied to stop bleeding from diverticula (small pouches) in the lower part of the digestive tract. It could be a treatment option for people who have active bleeding from these pouches.
This trial tests whether a powder form of tranexamic acid can stop nosebleeds faster in people who come to the emergency room with active bleeding. It may offer a new option if standard treatments don't work well.
This trial tests whether tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps reduce bleeding) lowers bleeding during colon procedures where abnormal growths are removed with a flexible camera. You might benefit if you’re having one of these colonoscopic resection procedures and don’t have certain key risk factors.
