Can a 1,500-Patient biobank unlock the secrets of chronic pancreatitis?

NCT ID NCT07770412

First seen Aug 18, 2026 ยท Last updated Aug 18, 2026

Summary

This observational study will follow 1,500 adults with chronic pancreatitis for several years, collecting health data and biological samples like blood, stool, and bile. The goal is to track how the disease changes over time, especially in those undergoing ERCP treatment, and to identify factors linked to complications or pancreatic cancer. By building a detailed biobank, researchers hope to improve future diagnosis and care for this condition.
