Trial summary

Particularly, pancreatic fistula is the most common and serious complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and is reported in up to 40% of cases. The aim of this retrospective single-center study was to investigate the utility of the combination of preoperative inflammation biomarkers (PIBs) with postoperative… Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: According to the inclusion criteria, 227 patients were eligible for the study. The median age of all the series was 69 years (IQR= 60.25-74). Male patients were 131 (57.7%), the median BMI was 24.06 Kg/m2 (IQR= 22.15-27.59). Biochemical leak, grade B and grade C PF have been detected in 67/227 (29.5%), 21/227 (9.25%) and 22/227 (9.7%) of the cases, respectively.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for periampullary neoplasms
  • Patients underwent PD with pancreaticojejunostomy reconstruction.
  • Patient with data of blood count in first postoperative day

Who cannot join

  • None of the above criteria

About this study

Official title: Preoperative Systemic Inflammatory Biomarkers and Postoperative Day 1 Drain Amylase Value Predict Grade C Pancreatic Fistula After Pancreaticoduodenectomy: a Retrospective Single Center Experience

Particularly, pancreatic fistula is the most common and serious complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and is reported in up to 40% of cases. The aim of this retrospective single-center study was to investigate the utility of the combination of preoperative inflammation biomarkers (PIBs) with postoperative day 1 drains amylase (POD1-d.a.) levels in predicting grade C Pancreatic Fistula (PF).

Read the detailed description

Data from a prospective collected database of 317 consecutive PDs performed at the University Campus Bio-Medico di Roma during the years 2005-2019, have been retrospectively analyzed. Local Ethical Committee approved the study.

Patients undergoing PD for periampullary neoplasms were included in the study. All patients underwent to PD with pancreaticojejunostomy reconstruction. Two surgical drains were always placed at the end of the surgery.

Data regarding PIBs, as full blood count including white blood cell (WBC) count, lymphocytes, neutrophils and platelets counts, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (d-NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and POD1-d.a. levels were collected and Positive Predictive Values (PPV) and Negative Predictive Values (NPV) were computed to investigate the probability to develop PF combining PIBs and drains amylase values.

What is being measured

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

  1. Predictive value of PIBs and drains amylase values for Pancreatic Fistula (PF)

    Predictive Values (PPV) and Negative Predictive Values (NPV) were computed to investigate the probability to develop Pancreatic Fistula (PF) combining PIBs and Postoperative Day 1 Drain Amylase Value

    Measured: pre-intervention/ Day 1 after the intervention/up to discharge"

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Fistula and Pancreas Cancer, run by Campus Bio-Medico University.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 24 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Predictive value of PIBs and drains amylase values for Pancreatic Fistula (PF) (time frame: pre-intervention/ Day 1 after the intervention/up to 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 24 Apr 2020.
