Trial summary

This study aims to examine whether octreotide has an effect on inhibition of the exocrine secretion fo the pancreas, which might lower the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreatoduodenectomy. Patients who will undergo pancreatoduodenectomy for periampullary tumors were enrolled. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Impact of Prophylactic Octreotide to Pancreatic Exocrine Secretion and Pancreatic Fistula After Pancreatoduodenectomy

This study aims to examine whether octreotide has an effect on inhibition of the exocrine secretion fo the pancreas, which might lower the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreatoduodenectomy. Patients who will undergo pancreatoduodenectomy for periampullary tumors were enrolled. The patients were randomly assigned to intervention (use of octreotide) or placebo groups. Octreotide was injected subcutaneously every 8 hours for 7 days. Every patients will undergo pancreaticojejunostomy with external stent for remnant pancreas management. The pancreatic juice is drained through the external stent by negative pressure and amounted.

Primary endpoint was the amount of pancreatic juice for each postoperative day. Secondary endpoint was the rate of pancreatic fistula.

This study aims to examine whether octreotide has an effect on inhibition of the exocrine secretion fo the pancreas, which might lower the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreatoduodenectomy. Patients who will undergo pancreatoduodenectomy for periampullary tumors were enrolled. The patients were randomly assigned to intervention (use of octreotide) or placebo groups. Octreotide of 100ug(1mL) was injected subcutaneously just before operation and every 8 hours for 7 days postoperatively. The placebo group was managed with normal saline (1mL) for same period. Every patients will undergo pancreaticojejunostomy with external stent for remnant pancreas management. The pancreatic juice is drained through the external stent by negative pressure (Barovac) and amounted.

Postoperative care of patients was same between groups such as pain control and supportive care. The amount of drained pancreatic juice via external stent was recorded everyday.

Primary endpoint was the amount of pancreatic juice for each postoperative day. Secondary endpoint was the rate of pancreatic fistula.

Being tested

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

Contact Dong Do You, MD, PhD (82312498303, tzanggu@catholic.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Amount of pancreatic secretion (time frame: 1 day). 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 NCT02920567, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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.
