Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Endoscopic Sub-mucosal Dissection With the Nestis® Jet Injector System With a Bi-functional Catheter: First Prospective Trial

Study Description

Brief Summary: ESD (Endoscopic Sub-mucosal Dissection)is the first-intent method to treat superficial neoplasms of the digestive tract at it allows an en-bloc R0 resection. Following marking of the lesion margins, ESD comprises 3 steps: 1) liquid injection into the sub-mucosal space 2) circumferential (complete or partial) incision and 3) dissection of the submucosa. Several tools are necessary to perform ESD with the standard technique. Development of water jet with bi functional (injection and cutting) catheter allows time and significant reduction of perforation risk (due to multiple changes of instruments). For this purpose, Nestis introduced the Enki 2 pulsed jet technology with high pressure system to inject efficiently and at any time viscous solutions in direct viewing and retroflexion. Preliminary pig studies indicate that injection of glycerol, hyaluronate and hydroxyethlstarch with Enki 2 are possible. In addition, preclinical studies on living pig colon models using saline solutions have demonstrated that perforation rates and operating times are significantly reduced compared to a standard electrosurgical knife. The present clinical study is being performed to confirm this system capability to perform ESD in humans.
