Serous Cystadenoma clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT02494388 Terminated - Pancreatic Cysts Clinical Trials

Needle-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy on Pancreatic Cystic Lesions

CINE-Cyst

Start date: June 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The study is based on a multi-center approach of needle based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE) combined with endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) to evaluate pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL), in order to obtain a correct histopathological diagnosis.After detection of PCL, certain morphological EUS features allow the discrimination of specific cyst types. Additionally, EUS-FNA is recommended as the first-line procedure whenever pathological diagnosis is required; however the procedure has its drawbacks, mainly represented by the relatively low negative predictive value in diagnosing pancreatic cancer. In this case a more precisely diagnostic tool is required; the potential role of CLE has been explored in gastrointestinal (GI) pathology showing good accuracy for predicting the final histopathological diagnosis based on immediate evaluation of tissue and vascular patterns. Although the clinical impact of nCLE for the decision making algorithms in cystic pancreatic neoplasm has not yet been described, the hypothesis is that EUS-nCLE could allow targeted tissue sampling of cystic pancreatic neoplasms resulting in more accurate diagnosis. The aim of the study is to describe the clinical impact of nCLE for the clinical decision management algorithm based on EUS, EUS-FNA and/or EUS-CLE imaging criteria for cystic pancreatic neoplasms, while evaluating also the feasibility and safety of nCLE examination.
