About this study

Prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) Guided cystogastrostomy or cystoduodenostomy and endoscopic necrosectomy to minimally invasive surgical necrosectomy, in patients with necrotizing pancreatitis.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomly allocated to either treatment arm in a 1:1 ratio. Following intervention, patients will be assessed at regular intervals until study completion at 6 months post-discharge. Primary outcome is a composite of major complications and/or mortality, measured to 6 months post-discharge.

Being tested
Endoscopic treatment, Minimally invasive surgical necrosectomy
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • Endoscopic treatmentProcedure or surgery

    Also called Endoscopic cystogastrostomy, Endoscopic cystoduodenostomy, Endoscopic necrosectomy

    Treated by single or multiple transmural cystogastrostomy tracts, 15mm balloon dilation, two 7fr double pigtail plastic stents or lumen-apposing metal stents and nasocystic drainage catheter, with or without endoscopic necrosectomy as needed.

  • Minimally invasive surgical necrosectomyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Video-assisted retroperitoneal debridement (VARD), Laparoscopic cystogastrostomy with internal debridement

    Video-assisted retroperitoneal debridement (VARD) or laparoscopic cystogastrostomy with internal debridement.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endoscopic treatment and Minimally invasive surgical necrosectomy in people with Necrosis of Pancreas and Infected Pancreatic Necrosis, run by AdventHealth at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 12 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 11 Feb 2019. 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 United States. 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 complications (time frame: 6 months post discharge). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02084537, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 Feb 2019.
