Summary
This study looks at a procedure called celiac plexus neurolysis, which uses alcohol to block pain nerves in people with pancreatic cancer. Doctors usually inject another numbing drug (bupivacaine) first, but it's not clear if that helps or might even reduce the alcohol's effect. The trial will compare pain control and side effects in 180 patients who either get bupivacaine or not before the alcohol injection.
