First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding an oral drug called tacrolimus before an ERCP procedure can prevent pancreatitis, a painful inflammation of the pancreas that sometimes occurs after the procedure. About 4,800 adults undergoing ERCP will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard preventive treatment (a rectal anti-inflammatory) alone or that treatment plus tacrolimus. The goal is to see if the combination reduces the number of people who develop pancreatitis after the procedure.
