NCT03749590

Brief Summary

MagPEP is a multi-centre, randomized, phase III, double blind, placebo controlled, parallel group trial. It evaluates magnesium sulfate for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis. Adult patients with a medical indication for ERCP are to be randomized (1:1 ratio) to receive either magnesium sulfate or placebo (NaCl 0,9%) 60 min before and 6 hours after ERCP.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • reduction in the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis by 50 %

    24 hours after ERCP

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • reduction in intake of analgesics

    during the first 24 hours after ERCP and, if a post-ERCP pancreatitis occurs, until discharge from hospital

  • duration of stay in hospital after ERCP

    from end of ERCP to discharge from hospital; assessed on day 30 after ERCP

  • reduction in premature protease activation

    during treatment period, assessed 24 h after ERCP

  • reduction in severity of post-ERCP pancreatitis

    from 24 hours after ERCP onwards, assessed on day 30 after ERCP

  • reduction in 30-day morbidity

    30 days after ERCP

Study Arms (2)

Magnesium

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive 2 infusions of 500 ml NaCl 0,9%: the first one 60 min before ERCP and the second one 6 hours after ERCP. With each infusion 10 ml magnesium sulfate (4930 mg magnesium sulfate = 20 mmol magnesium) are administered (total dose: 9860 mg magnesium sulfate).

Drug: Magnesium Sulfate

Placebo (NaCl 0,9%)

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients receive 2 infusions of 500 ml NaCl 0,9%: the first one 60 min before ERCP and the second one 6 hours after ERCP. To each infusion 10 ml NaCl 0.9% (Placebo) will be added .

Drug: Placebo (NaCl 0,9%)

Interventions

Patients receive 2 infusions (10 ml magnesium sulfate added to 500 ml NaCl 0.9%): the first infusion 60 min before and the second one 6 hours after ERCP
