About this study
Official title: Tracking the ENcapsulation of Pancreatic Collections in Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis. A Serial MRI Based Prospective Study (MRI-ENCAP Study)
The goal of this study is to investigate the encapsulation of fluid collections in patients with ANP using serial MRI.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Evaluating the timing of encapsulation of necrotic fluid collection using serial non-enhanced MRI.
- Identifying the factors that affect the timing of encapsulation of necrotic fluid collections Participants will undergo serial MRI scans (all with the same protocol) performed starting at day 15. Subsequent scans will be performed at 5 days interval till the clinically significant encapsulation (for all the collections in an individual patient) is seen or patients are excluded from the protocol due to intervention.
Read the detailed description
Consecutive patients with ANP presenting to the hospital within 2 weeks from the pain onset will be recruited. They will undergo serial non-contrast MRI starting at day 15 and every 5 days thereafter, till complete encapsulation of PFC. Ultrasound evaluation of the collection will be performed on the day of MRI by a radiologist not involved in evaluation of MRI. The site and volume of collection as well as thickness and completeness of the capsule and solid content within the collection will be recorded independently by two radiologists. The timing of clinically significant (>50% of PFC show capsule) and complete encapsulation will be recorded. The proportion of collections encapsulating in each week after 2nd week of illness will be recorded. The association between timing of encapsulation and clinical/biochemical parameters will be assessed. The correlation between the degree of encapsulation and percentage of solid components will also be documented. Multivariate analysis will be performed to identify factors associated with timing of encapsulation.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis, run by Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh at 1 site in India.
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 4 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 8 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 India. 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 Pankaj Gupta (0172-2756508, pankajgupta959@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Timing of Encapsulation (time frame: 1-2 months after initial MRI). 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 NCT05716633, which also lists 9 linked publications.
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 8 Feb 2023.
