Research summary
The main purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate that Nexpowder™, when used first, is similar to other approved endoscopic therapies for the treatment of patients with high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding.
Nexpowder is a single-use device made up of a delivery system and a haemostatic powder, that works to stop the flow of blood.
This study will randomly assign patients who present with peptic ulcer bleeding to receive treatment with either Nexpowder or with the standard treatment of thermal therapy, injection therapy, or mechanical therapy i.e. clips.
