All recruiting trials (8)
-
Short preoperative stereotactic radiotherapy to prevent pancreatic leaks after Whipple surgery
This trial will test whether a short course of stereotactic radiotherapy given before a Whipple operation can reduce the chance of a pancreatic leak (fistula) in adults having a pancreaticoduodenectomy.
-
Immune suppression after Whipple (pancreaticoduodenectomy)
This will test whether measuring patients' immune function (mHLA-DR) after a Whipple operation for a pancreatic head tumor can identify people at higher risk of serious infections or pancreatic complications.
-
Predicting pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy
This project will try to find which before-, during-, and after-surgery factors predict clinically significant pancreatic fistula in adults having pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic or periampullary tumors.
-
Minimally invasive (laparoscopic) Whipple procedure for pancreatic and periampullary tumors
This trial tests whether a laparoscopic Whipple operation is safe and feasible for people with resectable pancreatic head or periampullary cancers who do not have major blood vessel involvement.
-
Comparing two methods for preventing pancreatic fistula after surgery
This study is testing if using a special glue during pancreatic surgery can help prevent serious leaks in the pancreas compared to the usual method for people having surgery for cancer.
-
Using an external stent to prevent complications after pancreatic surgery
This study tests whether using an external stent during pancreatic surgery can help prevent complications like pancreatic fistulas in patients with a soft pancreas.
-
Evaluating blood flow in pancreatic remnants after surgery using fluorescence
This study is testing if a special dye can help doctors see blood flow in the remaining part of the pancreas after surgery to predict the risk of complications like pancreatic fistulas in patients.
-
Analyzing factors affecting pancreatic tumors and cysts
This study looks at how different factors affect pancreatic tumors and cysts to help improve treatment options for patients.

Quick answers
How many Pancreatic Fistula clinical trials are recruiting right now?
8, as of November 12, 2026. We update this list each time we refresh our data from ClinicalTrials.gov.
Where are these trials running?
In 4 countries. The most sites are in Egypt (4 trials), France (2 trials), Czechia (1 trial), Sweden (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
What phases are they in?
Phase 2: 2. Trials with no phase listed are usually device, behavioural or observational studies.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
