New registry sheds light on life with pancreatic insufficiency
NCT ID NCT05762445
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study created a registry of 400 adults with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) caused by chronic pancreatitis. Researchers collected real-world data on disease history, treatment patterns, and quality of life through patient reports and clinic visits. The goal was to better understand the unmet needs and burden of EPI, not to test a new treatment.
