About this study

Official title: Grade 3 Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors on MDCT: Establishing a Diagnostic Model and Comparing Survival Against Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

  1. Imaging findings (including CT and MRI images) of both well-differentiated G3 PNET and poorly differentiated PNET were studied;
  2. The CT imaging findings of G3 stage PNET and pancreatic cancer were compared to establish a Logistic regression diagnostic model, and the survival analysis of the two was compared.
  3. Cox regression was used to study the risk factors for survival prognosis of well-differentiated and poorly differentiated PNET based on CT image features
Read the detailed description

According to the latest WHO Classification of Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (NET) in 2019, pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNET) are divided into well-differentiated and poorly differentiated PNETs.The former is divided into G1, G2, and well differentiated G3.There are few studies on the survival outcomes of these two differentiated PNET types.The G3 imaging manifestations of the two types of differentiation have not been studied yet, and G3 PNET is often clinically misdiagnosed as pancreatic cancer, so it is necessary to differentiate the imaging manifestations and survival time of the two types.

A total of 71 patients with PNET in our hospital from January 2012 to January 2019 and 58 patients with pancreatic cancer from February 2014 to August 2015 were retrospectively collected. Complete survival time data of all patients after telephone follow-up were obtained.Since G3 PNET is very rare, the investigators enrolled 9 patients with G3 PNET in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine and 7 patients with G3 PNET in the Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from January 2013 to October 2018.

CT images of PNET and pancreatic cancer were analyzed independently by two radiologists specializing in abdominal diagnosis, in which G3 lesions were evaluated simultaneously on MRI images and the others were evaluated only on CT images.Records clinical data and imaging characteristics: gender, age, tumor markers, tumor shape, size, tumor characteristics, edge, the expansion of the shrinking, pancreas, pancreatic pancreatitis, enhancement scan, arterial phase and portal phase lesions and the ratio of pancreatic parenchyma around, liver metastasis, peripheral vascular invasion, lymph node metastasis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neuroendocrine Tumor of Pancreas and Carcinoma, Pancreatic, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 27 Jul 2021. 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 China. 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?

Tumor size (time frame: preoperative contrast-enhanced CT performed within 2 months before surgery or biopsy). The study lists 17 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 27 Jul 2021.
