Endoscopic Full Thickness Suturing of Mucosal, Submucosal and Perforation Defects Using Su2ura® GI System
The objective of this clinical study is to assess the safety of the Su2ura® GI system when used for endoscopic suturing and soft-tissue approximation in patients referred for endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of gastric neoplastic lesions. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Percentage of patients with incomplete closure. 2. Percentage of patients bleeding at closure site within 28 days from procedure. 3. Percentage of patients with infection at closure site within 28 days from procedure. 4. Percentage of patients with leakage within 72 hours from procedure. 5. Serious Adverse Device Effects (SADE) within 28 days from procedure. 6. Overall rates of Adverse Device Effect within 28 days from procedure. Study includes 6 visits: Screening, Baseline/Surgery, Discharge and 4 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post-surgery. The actual point of enrollment for each subject is considered the day of surgery. Total study duration is up to 6.5 months. The patient will be admitted to the medical center on the day of the procedure or one day prior for preoperative preparation. Following tissue resection using one of the methods (ESD or EMR), suturing will be performed using the Su2ura® GI system. Postoperatively, the patient will be transferred to the recovery area and then to the surgical ward for standard monitoring, with an expected one-night postoperative stay and discharge the following day. Study follow-up visits will take place 4 weeks, 3 and 6 months post surgery.
