Trial summary

The rationale for using somatostatin (octreotide0 is that it has been shown to inhibit the secretion of various gastrointestinal hormones, including gastrin and secretin, which can contribute to the development of non-variceal gastrointestinal bleeding (NVGIB). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of Octreotide Intravenous Infusion in Non-variceal GI Bleeding in ICU

The rationale for using somatostatin (octreotide0 is that it has been shown to inhibit the secretion of various gastrointestinal hormones, including gastrin and secretin, which can contribute to the development of non-variceal gastrointestinal bleeding (NVGIB). Somatostatin has also been found to reduce splanchnic blood flow, which can decrease the risk of rebleeding in patients with NVGIB.

Previous studies have suggested that somatostatin may be effective in reducing the risk of rebleeding in patients with NVGIB, but there is a lack of high-quality randomized controlled trials evaluating its efficacy.

Therefore, this study aims to provide more rigorous evidence regarding the use of somatostatin in the management of NVGIB.

Aim of the study:

To evaluate the efficacy of medical treatment with somatostatin analogue (octreotide) combined with PPI in the treatment of non-variceal gastrointestinal bleeding in comparison to PPI alone a randomized.

Read the detailed description

All patients admitted will receive the routine monitoring for the vital signs and supportive treatment. Resuscitation of a hemodynamically unstable patient begins with assessing and addressing the "ABCs" (i.e. airway, breathing, circulation) of initial management. Patients who are at an increased risk for aspiration, should be electively intubated. Intravenous access will be inserted and fluid resuscitation, blood, and blood products transfusion according to laboratory results. Nasogastric tune will be inserted andperform lavage, and endoscopic consultation post resuscitation within 24 hours.

Enrolled patients were assigned to one of two groups. After the initial endoscopy, both groups received either an 80-mg bolus of PPI alone (control group= A), followed by continuous intravenous (IV) infusion at 8 mg/h for a total of 72 hours or the octreotide adjunctive group, in addition to the pantoprazole (Study group= B) for 72 h, received a 100-μg bolus of octreotide, followed by continuous IV infusion of 50 μg/h for a total of 72 hours.

Hourly monitoring for vital signs including pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry, 24hours urine output. Daily follow up for complete blood count, coagulation profile, urea, and creatinine will be done.

Being tested
PPI group, PPI plus octreotide

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing PPI group and PPI plus octreotide in people with Non-variceal Gastrointestinal Bleeding, run by National Hepatology & Tropical Medicine Research Institute at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 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 2 Oct 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 Egypt. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Eman Ibrahim El-Desoki Mahmoud (+201227409501, eman18350@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of rebeeding (time frame: 7 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 2 Oct 2023.
