NCT ID NCT07368218
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study compares two ways to reconnect the digestive tract after pancreatic cancer surgery (Whipple procedure). The goal is to see which method reduces delayed stomach emptying, a common complication. About 124 adults having this surgery will be randomly assigned to one of the two reconstruction techniques. Researchers will track complications, recovery time, and quality of life for up to a year.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If one method proves better, it could lead to a standard surgical approach that reduces complications like delayed stomach emptying after pancreatic cancer surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center trial with 124 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The study compares two surgical techniques, not a new drug, so the impact is incremental.
