Filter by:This is a prospective cohort study. The investigators enroll subjects with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), individuals at high risk for PDAC, patients with other pancreatic diseases, patients with CA19-9 elevation and controls without pancreatic disease. This study aims to establish a diagnostic prediction model by using elastase 1, common clinical serological examinations, and imaging examinations including endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and to explore the diagnostic ability of the model in the high-risk population of PDAC. Besides, the investigators search for new biomarkers by multi-omics studies of serum and pancreatic tissues to further improve the diagnostic performance of this model. In conclusion, this study seeks a robust diagnostic prediction model to diagnose PDAC, especially early resectable PDAC.
This study is a single-center, randomized, single-blind, parallel controlled clinical study to explore the optimal dose of postoperative indomethacin suppository for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis. The purpose of this study is to explore the optimal dosage of indomethacin suppository for PEP prevention, to study the control effect of indomethacin on hyperamylaseemia, and to further explore the group of patients who benefit most from this therapy.
Strategies for invasive intervention in acute pancreatitis include sequential or combined use of multiple drainage and debridement modalities. The more widely used is the step-up approach, which requires an individualized and multidisciplinary (internal medicine, interventional radiology, endoscopy, surgery, critical care medicine, and nutritionists) approach. The available evidence from randomized controlled studies is from highly selected subject populations, and it is unclear whether the results can be applied to complex clinical situations in real clinics, and the optimal strategy for drainage of peripancreatic lesions in different patients still needs to be evaluated in the real world. This study intends to establish a prospective single-center cohort for real-world analysis to collect comprehensive clinic information and clinical outcomes, to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of existing intervention strategies, especially the timing and modality of interventions, in real-world clinical practice, and to explore the key factors affecting patient prognosis.
This research is studying a new noninvasive device-based therapy called Transcutaneous Electrical Acustimulation (TEA) to learn about its safety and how well it works as a treatment of pain in chronic pancreatitis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of TEA to treat abdominal pain in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP). The study hypothesizes that TEA can be used as a non-pharmaceutical opioid-free approach to treat pain in chronic pancreatitis.
The goal of this observational study is to improve the epidemiological data of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency in China, determine the FE-1 cut-off value for the classification of PEI, and explore the characteristic differences between T3cDM and type 2 diabetes mellitus in clinical symptoms and laboratory indicators.
To evaluate the islet function and insulin secretion pattern of post-pancreatitis diabetes mellitus by oral glucose tolerance testing, and to explore the pathophysiological characteristics of PPDM-C which provide evidence for the diagnosis of PPDM-C.
This is a long-term safety follow-up study of the Phase I/IIa multicenter study of SCM-AGH in subjects with moderate to severe acute pancreatitis. subjects will be followed up for a maximum period of 240 weeks after the first dose of investigational product. Only subjects previously enrolled in protocol SCM-APT2001 (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04189419) will be eligible for this long-term follow-up protocol.
Post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is the most common complication after ERCP, which was associated with occasional mortality, prolonged hospital days and increased health costs. Some studies investigated the effectiveness of different Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for prevent PEP. However, several high-quality RCTs and meta-analyses consistently demonstrated only100mg rectal indomethacin or diclofenac significantly reduced PEP incidence compared with placebos. Thus, European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic surgery guidelines recommended rountine administration of 100mg rectal indomethacin or diclofenac in unselected patients who underwent ERCP. Up to date, the mechanisms of NSAIDs in preventing pancreatitis were not fully elucidated. Diclofenac and Indomethacin showed similar inhibitory effects in phospholipase A2 and cyclooxygenase pathways. And the peak concentration of diclofenac and indomethacin both occurs between 30 and 90 min after rectal administration. However, diclofenac may be a stronger inhibitor of other pancreatitis-related imflammatory siginals (e.g. nuclear factor kappa-B) than indomethacin. Recently, several meta-analyses found 100mg rectal diclofenac to be more efficacious than 100mg rectal indomethacin. Despite these data, there is no conclusive evidence to prove that rectal diclofenac could provide incremental benefits over indomethacin from high-quality randomized, controlled trials. Therefore, the investigators conducted a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of rectal diclofenac versus indomethacin for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis in average-risk patients.
This study aims to explore whether regular telephone intervention in patients with chronic pancreatitis can improve their smoking cessation rate.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether adult stem cells, called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) collected from the patient's bone marrow can help reduce pain caused by chronic pancreatitis and improve pancreatic function.
