Paclitaxel Coated Balloon for Treating Esophageal Strictures

This study will test a new way to help people who have a tight spot in their esophagus that makes swallowing hard. This tight spot is called a benign esophageal stricture. The study will use a special balloon called ProTractX3™ DCB. This balloon is coated with a medicine called paclitaxel that helps keep the esophagus open. Benign means the stricture is not cancerous.

To join, you must:

  • Be 22 years or older and have a stricture that was treated at least twice before.
  • Have a swallowing score of 2 or more and a narrow esophagus less than 13 mm wide.
  • Agree to attend follow-up visits and sign a consent form.

Key Points:

  • Study involves follow-up visits to check how well the treatment works.
  • It's important to be able to undergo endoscopy, a test to see inside your esophagus.
  • Pregnant women or those planning pregnancy in 12 months cannot participate.
