Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether the nerve pain medication duloxetine can prevent pancreatitis, a serious complication that sometimes occurs after an ERCP procedure. Researchers will give duloxetine or a placebo to 44 adults with biliary disease before their ERCP. The main goal is to see if fewer people develop pancreatitis in the duloxetine group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
duloxetine
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-opioid way to prevent a common and serious complication after ERCP.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 44 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Duloxetine also has side effects like nausea and dizziness.
