Summary

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate temporal delay (days) between biliary drainage (EUS-CDS vs ERCP as first line therapy) and surgery in patients with resectable distal malignant biliary obstruction.

Detailed description

Ecoendoscopy-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) has been extended as a second line treatment in cases of ERCP failure in malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO). However, there are clinical trials which have compared it with ERCP as a first line treatment for MDBO in palliative patients, showing similar clinical and technical success and adverse events (AEs) rate between both techniques. Data about the benefit of this techique in resectable patients is still limited. A recent retrospective study (Janet J et al, Ann Surg Oncol 2023) which included resectable patients, found that EUS-CDS group had significantly less delay (days) between biliary drainage and surgery than the ERCP group, with fewer endoscopy and surgery AEs. Thus, our hypothesis is that EUS-CDS has benefits in terms of decreasing delay between biliary drainage when compared to ERCP in MDBO in resectable patients.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Endoscopic biliary drainage	Decompression of the bile duct by endoscopic aproach.
DEVICE	Self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS)	Self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) deployment: * Covering: Uncovered or Partially Covered. Non covered if gallbladder is present. * Size: 10x40mm or 10x60mm or 10x80mm.
DEVICE	Lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) and double-pigtail plastic stent (DPPS)	Lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) with coaxial double-pigtail plastic stent (DPPS) deployment: * LAMS size: 6x8mm or 8x8mm. Consider 10x10mm if bile duct \> 18mm. * DPPS size: 7Fr x 3-7cm.
