Study summary

In this study, investigators will investigate the microbiota of bile in common bile duct stone participants. Three key questions are of concern. The first one is whether there is bacteriria in bile in participants without common bile duct stone. The second one is whether the microbiota of bile is similar with that of gut mucosa in common bile duct stone participants. The third one is whether the bacteria in bile of common bile participants with intact papillar is the same as that of participants underwent sphinctomy.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Feb 2018 to primary completion in Apr 2023, 61 months.

Of 32 non-industry observational studies under Gallstones, half reached primary completion within 29 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 60. This study's 61 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 32 studies reached it within 29 months; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 60.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 30, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
