-
Energy needs after pancreatic surgery: measuring metabolism to guide nutrition
This study tests how much energy patients need after pancreatic surgery and compares direct measurements with common estimating methods to see if standard formulas are accurate.
-
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.
-
Tissue-glue injection into the pancreas during pancreaticoduodenectomy
This trial will test whether injecting a tissue glue called N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate into the pancreatic remnant during pancreaticoduodenectomy reduces postoperative pancreatic fistulas in patients with a soft pancreas and a small main duct.
-
Saleh's technique: injecting Histoacryl glue into the pancreas during pancreaticojejunostomy
This procedure will try injecting a tissue glue (Histoacryl) into the pancreas during pancreaticoduodenectomy to see if it reduces pancreatic leaks in people with a soft pancreas and a small pancreatic duct.
-
External drainage methods for pancreatic surgery complications
This study is testing whether using external drainage methods after pancreatic surgery can help prevent complications like leaks and improve recovery for patients with pancreatic tumors.
-
Comparing two surgical methods for pancreatic cancer treatment
This study is testing if a less invasive surgery for pancreatic cancer works better than traditional surgery in helping patients live longer after treatment.

Where are these trials running?
In 4 countries. The most sites are in China (2 trials), Egypt (2 trials), France (1 trial), Greece (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
What phases are they in?
Phase 2: 2, Phase 1: 1. 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.
