Filter by:In patients with pancreatic cancer, older age, multiple comorbidities, frailty, malnutrition and poor functional status are common, especially in individuals receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. These characteristics represent potentially modifiable risk factors for poor postoperative outcomes. The goal of this clinical randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the extent to which a four-week multimodal prehabilitation program impacts on postoperative morbidity, functional and nutritional status and health-related quality of life in patients with localized pancreatic or periampullary cancer scheduled for curative surgery. In addition, the impact of prehabilitation on circulating sarcopenia and cancer cachexia biomarkers in PDAC patients will be explored. Included patients will be randomized (ratio 1:1) and allocated either to the intervention group (Multimodal Prehabilitation), which will receive prehabilitation, or to the control group, which will receive no prehabilitation.
Use of antidepressants for participants with localized pancreatic and periampullary cancer receiving neoadjuvant therapy.
The project aims at analysing prognostic and predictive factors involved in diagnostics and surgical treatment of cysts and tumors in the pancreas and periampullary region using both clinical data and blood and tissue samples for biomarker development and validation.
This study is based on the ergonomic features of the most common surgical procedures, which require advanced techniques and relatively difficult operations, such as pancreatobiliary surgery, prostatectomy, nephrectomy, colon and rectal resection. This study id designed to verify the clinical safety and effectiveness of 'Revo-i Surgical Robot System (Model MSR-5100), developed by Mirae Company to overcome the limitations of general laparoscopic surgery.
The CHAMP (Chemotherapy, Host response And Molecular dynamics in Periampullary cancer) study is a prospective, single-arm observational study that started Sept 1 2018. Patients diagnosed with pancreatic or other periampullary adenocarcinoma undergoing adjuvant och palliative chemotherapy are invited to participate. The study will examine the tumors' molecular dynamics and how this may change over time and with treatment. Primary endpoint will be overall survival, secondary endpoints will be disease specific survival, time to progression, and quality of life. We estimate that 90 patients will be included in the study per year.
Introduction Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is one of the most complex abdominal operations to perform, and it is usually conducted for tumours of the periampullary region and chronic pancreatitis. Minimally invasive surgery has been progressively being developed for pancreatic surgery, first with the advent of hybrid-laparoscopy and recently with total laparoscopic surgery. Issues including the safety and efficacy of total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (TLPD) and open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD) are currently being debated. Studies comparing these two surgical techniques are emerging, and large randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are lacking but are clearly required. Methods and analysis TJDBPS01 is a multicentre, prospective, randomized controlled, parallel-group, superiority trial in fourteen centres with pancreatic surgery experts who have performed ≥104 TLPDs and OPDs. A total of 656 patients who will undergo PD are randomly allocated to the TLPD group or OPD group in a 1:1 ratio. The trial hypothesis is that TLPD has superior or equivalent safety and advantages in postoperative recovery compared with OPD. The primary outcome is the postoperative length of stay (LOS). Ethics and dissemination The Instituitional Review Board Approval of Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology has approved this trial and will be routinely monitoring the trial at frequent intervals, as will an independent third-party organization. Any results from this trial (publications, conference presentations) will be published in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings.
This Endoscopic Ultrasound guided Biliary Drainage (EUS-BD) vs. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP-TP) trial (BILPAL) is a randomized controlled multicenter trial that will provide evidence whether or not traditional ERCP biliary drainage is to be performed in patients with obstruction in bile duct due to unresectable pancreatic head or periampullary tumor.
