What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study is looking for ways to predict which people with chronic pancreatitis will get pain relief from a procedure called endoscopic therapy. Researchers will use brain scans, nerve tests, and questionnaires before the procedure, then track pain levels for up to 18 months. The goal is to find markers that help doctors choose the right treatment for each patient.

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 successful, this could help doctors predict which chronic pancreatitis patients will benefit most from endoscopic therapy, leading to more personalized treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study with only 100 participants. The biomarkers may not reliably predict pain response, and results may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * adults older than 18 years; * Cambridge III or IV criteria for Chronic Pancreatitis (CP); or M-ANNHEIM criteria for definitive chronic pancreatitis; * scheduled for endoscopic therapy for ductal obstruction (may include lithotripsy, pancreatic duct dilation, or stone extraction to facilitate successful stenting) as part of routine clinical care based on multidisciplinary review; * pain present for ≥ 3 days per week for ≥ 3 months; * average pain over the last week ≥ 4 on a 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS). Exclusion Criteria: * chronic pain syndrome other than CP; * episode of acute pancreatitis within 2 months of enrollment; * endoscopic therapy including Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) Guided Celiac Plexus Block or pancreatic surgery \< 6 months prior to enrollment; * active illicit drug use (excludes marijuana use); * American Society of Anesthesiologists classification \> 3; * immune-mediated pancreatitis or associated pancreatic neoplasms * Major neurological disease such as stroke, uncontrolled epilepsy, dementia * Diagnosis of schizophrenia * Chronic benzodiazepine use. Use of short acting benzodiazepine on as needed basis is acceptable if participant is able to hold benzodiazepine prior to EEG recording. * Pregnancy
