Summary

This study tests whether taking pancreatic enzyme pills can help people who have lost significant weight after a severe bout of pancreatitis regain a healthier body weight. The trial will enroll 188 adults aged 18-60 who have lost at least 10% of their body weight due to the disease. Participants will receive either the enzyme pills or a placebo for 3 months, and researchers will track changes in BMI and quality of life.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (lipase 25000 IU)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a way to help patients with severe acute pancreatitis regain weight and improve their nutrition and quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small early-phase trial, and the benefit may be modest or not statistically significant. The intervention only addresses nutrition, not the underlying pancreatic damage.
