Trial summary

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is the 4th leading cause of cancer in the USA. Its incidence is increasing both in France and in Europe, whereas all the other cancers are decreasing in Europe. Moreover, its seriousness is still high, with a mortality rate higher than the average incidence. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prevalence, With Medical Imaging, of the Parenchymatous and/or Ductal Pancreatic Anomalies of Patients With a 1st Degree Familial History of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is the 4th leading cause of cancer in the USA. Its incidence is increasing both in France and in Europe, whereas all the other cancers are decreasing in Europe. Moreover, its seriousness is still high, with a mortality rate higher than the average incidence. The aim of PAPAFA study is to assess the prevalence of the pancreatic anomalies which can be revealed thanks to imaging, for patients having a 1st degree pancreatic adenocarcinoma familial history. This could allow detection of lesions which are less than 10 mm long, and improve the dark prognostic of this pathology.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients for whom the MRI and/or the echo endoscopy has shown a parenchymatous or ductal pancreatic anomaly

    For every patients who will have a pancreatic MRI detecting an anomaly, the echo endoscopy will be done. A cytology of the lesion from the echo endoscopy will be done for the solid lesions and for the indetermined cystic lesions (that is to say, the lesions which don't meet the literature set criteria for serous kyst or intraductal papillary and mucinous tumor of the pancreas) ; which is usually done in health care.

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Number of patients for whom the MRI has brought to light a parenchymatous and/or ductal pancreatic anomaly

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

  2. Number of patients for whom the echo endoscopy has brought to light a parenchymatous and/or ductal pancreatic anomaly

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

  3. Height of the lesions

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

  4. Correlation between the data from the MRI and those from the echo endoscopy

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

  5. Localisation of the lesions

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

  6. Number of lesions

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

  7. Aspect of the lesion (solid and/or liquid)

    Measured: six months after the last inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pancreatic MRI in people with Prevalence of Pancreas Adenocarcinomas, run by Centre Hospitalier Saint Joseph Saint Luc de Lyon at 9 sites in France.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 13 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in France. 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?

Number of patients for whom the MRI and/or the echo endoscopy has shown a parenchymatous or ductal pancreatic anomaly (time frame: six months after the last inclusion). 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 13 Jan 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
