About this study

Official title: Endoscopic Retrograde CholangioPancreatography Endomicroscopy Registry Outcomes Database

This registry will collect data from patients routinely undergoing an ERCP and Cellvizio endomicroscopy procedure (and optionally an additional cholangiopancreatoscopy procedure) due to suspected pancreatic or bile duct cancer. The objective is to determine if endomicroscopy images collected using the marketed Cellvizio device may help endoscopists more accurately diagnose, in conjunction with traditional tissue sampling techniques, whether a suspected lesion is malignant or benign.

Read the detailed description

This is a registry study to collect high quality longitudinal data from patients with suspected or indeterminate pancreaticobiliary pathology who are undergoing an ERCP with Cellvizio probe-based endomicroscopy procedure, with or without supplemental direct cholangiopancreatoscopy. The hypothesis is that ERCP with Cellvizio probe-based endomicroscopy improves differentiation of biliary and pancreatic duct lesions versus ERCP alone.

Direct measures of accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, etc.) in the differentiation of malignant versus benign biliary and/or pancreatic duct lesions will be compared for the combination of endomicroscopy and ERCP imaging and ERCP alone. These presumptive diagnoses will be compared against a 12-month follow-up confirmed histopathologic endpoint (an initially-benign pathologic diagnosis will be confirmed by a 12-month follow-up). Secondary objectives include collecting various safety and technical performance parameters.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopyDevice

    Also called Cellvizio endomicroscopy, Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy

    ERCP with or without cholangiopancreatoscopy will be performed by the endoscopist as clinically indicated. If findings at ERCP and/or prior imaging studies and/or clinical assessment suggest possible malignancy and/or an indeterminate biliary or pancreatic pathology Cellvizio probe-based endomicroscopy will be performed during ERCP.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparative histopathology-confirmed measures of Cellvizio endomicroscopy and ERCP accuracy in the differential diagnosis of suspicious lesions.

    Measured: 12-month diagnostic follow-up confirmation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Cancer and Bile Duct Cancer, run by Mauna Kea Technologies at 6 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, France, Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparative histopathology-confirmed measures of Cellvizio endomicroscopy and ERCP accuracy in the differential diagnosis of suspicious lesions. (time frame: 12-month diagnostic follow-up confirmation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Feb 2011.
