Pancreatitis clinical trials at University of California Health

4 in progress, 2 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • Biospecimen Collection to Identify Gene Mutations for High Risk Pancreatic Cancer in Pediatric Patients, INSPPIRE 2 Study

    open to eligible people ages up to 17 years

    This clinical trial collects blood, saliva, urine, or stool samples to help identify possible genetic mutations that may increase a person's chance at developing pancreatic cancer. Finding genetic markers among pediatric patients with acute recurrent pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis may help identify patients who are at risk of pancreatic cancer.

  • EchoTip AcuCore Post-Market Clinical Study

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The purpose of collecting this data is to continue to learn more about the EchoTip AcuCore and the device's ability to produce the desired favorable effect and if there are any undesired outcomes that may be related to the EchoTip AcuCore.

  • SpHincterotomy for Acute Recurrent Pancreatitis

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The purpose of this study is to determine if a procedure called Endoscopic Retrograde CholangioPancreatography (ERCP) with sphincterotomy reduces the risk of pancreatitis or the number of recurrent pancreatitis episodes in patients with pancreas divisum. ERCP with sphincterotomy is a procedure where doctors used a combination of x-rays and an endoscope (a long flexible lighted tube) to find the opening of the duct where fluid drains out of the pancreas. People who have been diagnosed with pancreas divisum, have had at least two episodes of pancreatitis, and are candidates for the ERCP with sphincterotomy procedure may be eligible to participate. Participants will be will be randomly assigned to either have the ERCP with sphincterotomy procedure, or to have a "sham" procedure. Participants will have follow up visits 30 days after the procedure, 6 months after the procedure, and continuing every 6 months until a maximum follow-up period of 48 months.
