NCT05843877
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether primary total pancreatectomy with simultaneous islet autotransplantation compared with pancreatic head resection (alone) can reduce perioperative morbidity and time to initiation of adjuvant therapy in patients with a high-risk constellation for pancreatic fistulas.
NCT06069297
In patients with pancreatic cancer, older age, multiple comorbidities, frailty, malnutrition and poor functional status are common, especially in individuals receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. These characteristics represent potentially modifiable risk factors for poor postoperative outcomes. The goal of this clinical randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the extent to which a four-week multimodal prehabilitation program impacts on postoperative morbidity, functional and nutritional status and health-related quality of life in patients with localized pancreatic or periampullary cancer scheduled for curative surgery. In addition, the impact of prehabilitation on circulating sarcopenia and cancer cachexia biomarkers in PDAC patients will be explored. Included patients will be randomized (ratio 1:1) and allocated either to the intervention group (Multimodal Prehabilitation), which will receive prehabilitation, or to the control group, which will receive no prehabilitation.
NCT06009224
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is not a program that aims to reduce postoperative hospital stay, but the multimodal strategies that aim to attenuate the loss of, and improve the restoration of, functional capacity after surgery on evidence-based medicine. The benefits of ERAS are proven in many surgical procedures, such as upper gastrointestinal surgery and colorectal surgery. Investigators performed Randomized Controlled Trials to evaluate the non-inferiority of modified ERAS protocol for pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) by introducing standardized pre- and post-operative treatment based on ERAS treatment guidelines (ERAS on PD, Research Institute Clinical Progress, 2014-0961; ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02372331). As a result of the study, the ERAS protocol proved to be non-inferior to the existing pre- and post-operative treatment in terms of surgical complications, mortality, hospital stay, total hospital cost, and most nutritional indicators. However, the previous study did not include a few important intraoperative items such as epidural analgesia and fluid balance among the main items of the ERAS protocol. This trial aims to evaluate the clinical results by applying the complete ERAS protocol.
NCT02787512
Currently, routine preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) was not recommended. However, PBD is still necessary in case of patients with cholangitis or very high level of bilirubin or patients who are expected to receive delayed surgery. The aim of this clinical trial is to demonstrate non-inferiority of uncovered self-expandable metal stent to plastic stent for PBD by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with periampullary cancer undergoing curative intent pancreaticoduodenectomy.
NCT03063554
This Endoscopic Ultrasound guided Biliary Drainage (EUS-BD) vs. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP-TP) trial (BILPAL) is a randomized controlled multicenter trial that will provide evidence whether or not traditional ERCP biliary drainage is to be performed in patients with obstruction in bile duct due to unresectable pancreatic head or periampullary tumor.
