Trial summary

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) still carries a high rate of severe postoperative complications. No score is currently available to help identify the patient's surgical risk. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a prognostic score to predict major postoperative complications after PD. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A PROGNOSTIC SCORE TO PREDICT MAJOR COMPLICATIONS AFTER PANCREATICODUODENECTOMY.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) still carries a high rate of severe postoperative complications. No score is currently available to help identify the patient's surgical risk. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a prognostic score to predict major postoperative complications after PD.

Read the detailed description

The investigators prospectively collected in an electronic database preoperative, intraoperative and outcome data of 700 patients undergoing PD in our Institution from 2002 to 2010. The investigators used a multivariate logistic regression analysis to create a new score to predict severe complications defined as Clavien-Dindo classification III, IV and V. The score was developed using a random two-thirds of the population (469 patients), and was then validated and calibrated in the remaining third of the patients (231).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Neoplasm, run by Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 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 17 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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?

Major Complication rate (time frame: Postoperative. Until 30 days after discharge). 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 17 Jan 2011.
