About this study

Pancreatic pseudocysts (PP) present as a complication that occurs in 5-15% of acute pancreatitis and 26-40% of chronic pancreatitis (1-3). To date the endoscopic drainage with endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has replace the surgical treatment due to the similar success and complication rate but with a lower cost and short hospital stay (4-6). Regarding recurrence, it is important to know the anatomy of the main pancreatic duct (MPD). For this purpose, the endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (ERP) has been describe as a useful tool. In fact, many authors perform it before the endoscopic drainage while others wait several weeks after the drainage (7-9) with similar technical success (5,8). However, there are no studies that compare the technical difficulty and the total cost between these two approaches.

Read the detailed description

METHODS: Random control trial between two groups. Group 1 the ERP will be performed the same day of the endoscopic drainage of PP. Group 2 the ERP will be performed 6 weeks after the endoscopic drainage of PP. Each ERP will be performed by an expert in ERP in patients who fulfilled the Atlanta criteria for PP. The patients will be enrolled and informed consent will be explained and signed. In those patients who ERP fails, a second attempt will be performed 6 weeks after the endoscopic drainage of PP (Group 1) or a magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography will be performed (Group 2).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endoscopic retrograde pancreatography in people with Pseudocyst Pancreas and Pancreatic Duct Disorder, run by Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Medicas y Nutricion Salvador Zubiran.

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 3 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 6 Mar 2024. 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?

The impact of the pancreatography in the endoscopic treatment of pancreatic pseudocysts (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 6 Mar 2024.
