Summary

This study tests whether a probiotic called Clostridium butyricum CBM588 can reduce diarrhea and improve gut symptoms in people who have had surgery to remove a pancreatic tumor. About 158 adults will be randomly assigned to take either the probiotic or a placebo pill for a period after their operation. The main goal is to see if the probiotic leads to fewer daily bowel movements and better quality of life.
