Trial summary

The aim of the study is to compare the effect of Roux-en Y reconstruction (study group, DPCDA) versus classical Child reconstruction (DPCUN) in the incidence of VGL in patients for DPC. The hypotesis of the study is that Roux-en Y reconstruction decreases incidence of DGE after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Billroth II or Roux-en-Y Reconstruction for Gastrojejunostomy After Pancreaticoduodenectomy: Randomized Controlled Trial (PAUDA TRIAL): Comparison of Morbidity and Delayed Gastric Emptying

The aim of the study is to compare the effect of Roux-en Y reconstruction (study group, DPCDA) versus classical Child reconstruction (DPCUN) in the incidence of VGL in patients for DPC. The hypotesis of the study is that Roux-en Y reconstruction decreases incidence of DGE after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Read the detailed description

The pancreaticoduodenectomy (DPC) is the procedure of choice of the tumors of the head of the pancreas, periampullary tumors and intractable inflammatory pathology.

The high postoperative morbidity (50%) involve a mean hospital stay of 15 days after surgery. The most common complication is delayed gastric emptying (DGE), defined as the intolerance to solid oral intake by 7th day postoperative. In some severe cases, oral intolerance can occur after the 21th postoperative day. Therefore, the patient requires parenteral nutrition and prolonged hospital stay.

The aim of the study is to compare the effect of Roux-en Y reconstruction (study group, DPCDA) versus classical Child reconstruction (DPCUN) in the incidence of VGL in patients for DPC.

The hypotesis of the study is that Roux-en Y reconstruction decreases incidence of DGE after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

A pilot randomized clinical trial has been designed to compare two surgical techniques for reconstruction of digestive tract after DPC in patients treated in our center. The patients are randomized after tumor resection and before the reconstruction througt computer-generated random numbers using a sealed envelope technique. The primary endpoint is the incidence of DGE. Secondary endpoints are postoperative morbidity and specific complications as pancreatic fistula, the hospital stay, and postoperative endocrine and exocrine function.

What participants receive

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

  • PancreaticoduodenectomyProcedure or surgery

    Pancreaticoduodenectomy is the classical operative technique to resect cephalic pancreatic cancer. In a first phase of the surgery, the resection may be performed. In the second phase, the digestive tract must be restored. We planify two different reconstruction techniques.

What is being measured

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

  1. Delayed gastric emptying incidence after pancreaticoduodenectomy

    DGE, defined as oral diet intolerance from the 7th postoperative day, and the persistence of nasogastric tube on the 4th postoperative day or later, according to the ISGPS criteria

    Measured: within the first 60 daysafter surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Morbidity and complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy

    Postoperative morbidity was defined as any complication that appeared during hospital admission. Postoperative complications and postoperative mortality were defined according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.

    Measured: within the first 60 daysafter surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pancreaticoduodenectomy in people with Malignant Neoplasm of Head of Pancreas, run by Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge at 1 site in Spain.

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 6 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 16 Oct 2017. 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 Spain. 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?

Delayed gastric emptying incidence after pancreaticoduodenectomy (time frame: within the first 60 daysafter surgery). 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 16 Oct 2017.
