About this study

to assess the diagnostic value of strain elastography EUS and shear wave EUS in solid pancreatic lesions

Read the detailed description

Three measurements of strain ratio elastography and three measurements of shear wave elastography with VPN> 20% will be performed in the same solid pancreatic lesions. The results will be compared in the groups of adenocarcinomas, neuroendocrine tumors and benign solid pancreatic lesions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Elastography EUS in people with Endoscopic Ultrasonography, run by Iuliu Hatieganu University of Medicine and Pharmacy.

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 2 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 25 Aug 2022. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Andrada Seicean, Prof (787802331 ext. +40, andradaseicean@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnostic sensitivity (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05448729, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 Aug 2022.
