About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial of Rectal Indomethacin to Prevent Acute Pancreatitis in Patients Undergoing Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Fine Needle Aspiration of Pancreatic Cysts

The aim of this randomized trial is to compare the rate of post-procedure pancreatitis in patients undergoing EUS-FNA of pancreatic cysts; patients will receive either a single dose of indomethacin or placebo administered rectally, during EUS-FNA.

Read the detailed description

Pancreatic cysts are pre-malignant lesions and are being increasingly diagnosed on cross-sectional imaging. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is performed to further evaluate pancreatic cysts, and fine needle aspiration (FNA) is conducted to obtain a sample of the cystic fluid for analysis and examination for malignant cells. Acute pancreatitis is a complication of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) of pancreatic cysts, which can lead to significant morbidity and substantial health care costs. The aim of this randomized trial is to compare the rate of post-procedure pancreatitis in patients undergoing EUS-FNA of pancreatic cysts; patients will receive either a single dose of indomethacin or placebo administered rectally, during EUS-FNA.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of post-procedure pancreatitis following EUS-guided fine needle aspiration of pancreatic cysts

    Post-procedure pancreatitis is defined as the development of new or increased abdominal pain consistent with acute pancreatitis, and elevated amylase or lipase at least three times the upper limit of normal .

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Rate of procedure-related adverse events

    Rate of adverse events resulting from EUS-FNA

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Disease-related adverse events

    Any adverse event occurring as a result of underlying pancreatic cyst

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Rate of mild, moderate and severe pancreatitis post-FNA

    Rate of mild, moderate and severe pancreatitis post-FNA

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Length of hospitalization in any patient hospitalized with any adverse event

    Length of hospitalization in any patient hospitalized with any adverse event

    Measured: 30 days

  5. Length of hospitalization in any patient hospitalized with acute pancreatitis

    Length of hospitalization in any patient hospitalized with acute pancreatitis

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EUS-guided fine needle aspiration of pancreatic cysts in people with Pancreatic Cyst and Pancreatitis, Acute, run by Orlando Health, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 31 Jan 2024. 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 United States. 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. 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 Barbara J Broome (321-841-7031, barbara.broome@orlandohealth.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of post-procedure pancreatitis following EUS-guided fine needle aspiration of pancreatic cysts (time frame: 30 days). 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 31 Jan 2024.
