NCT02474914

Brief Summary

pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the standard operation for treatment of patients with benign and malignant pancreatic and periampullary diseases. Despite improved surgical technique and postoperative care, the mortality rate after PD is high reaching up to 30%, due to high incidence of postoperative complications . Pancreatic fistula (PF) is the one of the most frequent complications of PD and the major contributor to postoperative morbidity The aim of this study to evaluate the effect of the perioperative octreotide use after PD for prevention of the postoperative pancreatic fistula. The secondary outcomes are overall postoperative complications, mortality and the cost benefit relationship of the use of the perioperative octreotide.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • the rate of development of postoperative pancreatic fistula

    POPF was defined by International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF) as any volume of drained fluid on or after postoperative day (POD) 3 with amylase content greater than 3 times the serum amylase activity . POPF was graded into Grade A, B, and C according to the clinical course

    30 day

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Delayed gastric emptying

    30 days

  • duration of the hospital length of stay

    30 days

Study Arms (2)

Octreotide

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Enrolled patients will be randomized to either the octreotide (sandostatin ) or the placebo group. The randomization process will be done using closed envelop method and will be withdrawn by a nurse after pancreaticoduodenectomy . Patients in the octreotide group will receive sandostatin 100ug SC every 8 hours daily staring from the day of operation to the postoperative day 7. Patients in the placebo group will receive saline administered in a similar manner.

Drug: Octreotide

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

pancreaticoduodenectomy without octreotide postoperative

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

Octreotide will be given after PD

Also known as: sandostatin
Octreotide

Octreotide will NOT be given after PD

Also known as: Normal saline
Placebo

Eligibility Criteria

Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All patients with pancreatic and periampullary tumours anticipated for PD will be eligible to participate in this trial.
  • patients with non dilated pancreatic duct and soft pancreas

You may not qualify if:

  • Age over 70.
  • Patients who underwent total or distal pancreatic resection.
  • Patients with unresectable disease who will undergo any surgical procedure other than PD for pancreatic and periampullary tumours.
  • Patients underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • PD more than 3mm.
