Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Diagnostic Accuracy
Diagnostic accuracy is the number of correctly diagnosed cases as compared to gold standard diagnosis Gold standard diagnosis is defined as; 1. in operated patients; based on the surgical resection specimen 2. in non-operated patients; based on the conclusions of the diagnostic work-up (combined outcomes of tissue sampling and imaging studies), and confirmed by a compatible clinical disease course of at least 9 months
27 months
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Number of Participants in Whom Target Lesion Was Sampled
1 day
Presence of Vital Target Cells Per Case, Per Needle Type
after 27 months
Number of Patients With Adverse Events Per Needle Type
27 months after procedure
Diagnostic Yield of the First Needle Pass
after 27 months
On-site Pathological Evaluation Performed
27 months
Study Arms (2)
25G FNA needle
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients referred for EUS-guided tissue acquisition of a pancreatic mass, lymph node, or other submucosal or undefined mass (non-pancreatic).
20G ProCore FNB needle
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients referred for EUS-guided tissue acquisition of a pancreatic mass, lymph node, or other submucosal or undefined mass (non-pancreatic).
