Tiny tube, big relief? new study tests scope treatment for pancreas pain
NCT ID NCT05012150
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a procedure called pancreatic endotherapy (using a thin tube through the mouth to treat the pancreas) can improve quality of life and reduce pain in 32 adults with chronic pancreatitis. Participants will fill out pain diaries and quality-of-life surveys before and up to 12 months after the procedure. The goal is to see if this treatment helps with daily pain and overall well-being.
