About this study

Official title: Detection, Treatment and Survival of Pancreatic Cancer Recurrence in the Netherlands

The aim of this nationwide, observational cohort study is to evaluate current surveillance strategies after primary resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the Netherlands, with regard to the detection, treatment and survival of PDAC recurrence.

Medical subject headings
Pancreatic Neoplasms

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of PDAC recurrence

    Incidence of PDAC recurrence within the Netherlands; PDAC recurrence is either pathologically proven, or suspected through cross-sectional imaging, preferably confirmed by consensus during a multidisciplinary meeting.

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

  2. Patterns of PDAC recurrence

    • Asymptomatic vs. symptomatic: Symptomatic recurrence is defined as the presence of symptoms suggestive for PDAC recurrence at recurrence diagnosis. If PDAC recurrence is detected in absence of suspected symptoms, disease recurrence was defined as asymptomatic.
    • First site of recurrence: isolated local recurrence, liver-only, lung-only, multiple-site, other isolated distant
    • Early vs. late recurrence: disease-free survival ≥12 months vs. <12 months

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

  3. Treatment of PDAC recurrence

    Either systemic and/or local treatment or best-supportive-care

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

  4. Survival

    Overall survival (from the time of resection), disease-free survival (from the time of resection), post-recurrence survival (from the time of recurrence diagnosis)

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Presence of symptoms at time of (suspected) recurrence

    Which symptoms are associated with PDAC recurrence?

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

  2. Performance score at time of recurrence detection

    What is the ECOG performance score of patients at time of recurrence diagnosis?

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

  3. Use of imaging procedures during follow-up

    How much imaging procedures are performed during postoperative follow-up for the detection of PDAC recurrence? Are these procedures routinely performed?

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

  4. Number of histologically confirmed recurrences

    How often is PDAC recurrence histologically confirmed?

    Measured: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma and Pancreatic Cancer, run by UMC Utrecht at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 2023. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Iris van Goor, MD (+31631917882, I.W.J.vanGoor-5@umcutrecht.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of PDAC recurrence (time frame: Within a follow-up period up to 5 years). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Feb 2023.
