About this study

Study objective: To describe the microflora characteristics of the pancreatic solid lesions via the tissue acquired via the endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/B).

Study design: This is a prospective observational study.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective observational study. Patients who need EUS-FNA/B for diagnosis of pancreatic solid lesions (pancreatic cancer, chronic pancreatitis, and autoimmune pancreatitis, etc)will be successively included in this study. The EUS-FNA/B procedures will be accomplished in the standard way after the puncture site is washed with 20ml sterile saline for three times. The remaining fresh tissue after sufficient specimen collected for the diagnosis will be stored in - 80℃ fridge. DNA is extracted from all samples using the suitable kit and V4 16S rRNA gene sequencing is performed on all samples. The investigators ran "Decontam" (Davis NM, et al. Microbiome 2018;6:226) in order to identify and remove contaminant DNA sequences from the dataset. And the microbiome is analyzed with the standard methodology. The investigators tend to describe the microflora characteristics of pancreatic solid lesions and try to compare the differences between cancer and benign diseases.

This study will carry out in two stages: the preliminary stage, 10 patients will be included. If the technic success rate (successful extraction of DNA and sequencing of 16s rRNA after bioinformatical removal of potential DNA contaminations via the use of 'Decontam') is high than 50%, the successive inclusion progress [the main stage] will last for one year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Carcinoma and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital 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 2 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 23 May 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 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?

Microflora analysis accomplished (time frame: within one month after EUS-FNA/B procedure). 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 23 May 2023.
