Overview

This is a national single-blinded prospective multicenter randomized (1:1) controlled trial, with two parallel arms, using a PROBE methodology, including patients with complicated acute necrotizing pancreatitis who require DEN of WON collection after endoscopic drainage. We will compare 2 groups: conventional DEN and DEN with Endorotor®. The study will be offered to all consecutive patients fulfilling the eligibility criteria after endoscopic drainage for WON. Since the time between drainage and the first necrosectomy session is usually at least 48 hours a period of at least 24h will be allowed for the patient to consider options to participate or not. Information and collection of informed consent will be done by an investigating physician.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age≥18years
  • ASA\<5
  • CT scan less than 7 days old
  • Hospitalized for acute necrotizing pancreatitis, whatever the cause, and who have undergone drainage of pancreatic collections for the following indications according to the revised Atlanta criteria (infection, organ compression, persistent organ failure)
  • Have need for at least one DEN session despite endoscopic drainage (persistence of clinical symptoms or sepsis \>48h after drainage with collection still visible)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • No endoscopic drainage in place for the management of WON
  • Have already had a DEN session (endoscopic or else) before screening for inclusion
  • Life-expectancy \< 1year (advanced cancer, etc)
  • Known haemostasis disorder (chronic thrombocytopenia, haemophilia, etc.)
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding woman
  • Subject deprived of freedom, subject under a legal protective measure
  • Non-affiliation to a social security regimen or CMU
  • Patient or person of confidence (if present at the time of inclusion) opposing the patient's participation in research
  • Subject already involved in another interventional clinical research

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
