Overview

Transcutaneous and EUS-guided radiofrequency ablation are both modern modalities to apply in the managemnet of various malignancies.

In the current study the investigators aim to study the technical feasibility, patient safety and clinical efficacy of EUS-RFA for the treatment of pancreatic insulinoma.

Description

Patients (P): Alla patients referred to Sahlgrenska University Hospital for the diagnostic work-up and management of a suspected pancreatic insulinoma.

Intervention (I): EUS-RFA

Control group (C): Patients with insulinoma treated with conventional surgery during the time frame 2018-2025 (historic controls).

Outcome (O):

  • Technical feasibility
  • Patient safety
  • Clinical efficacy (follow-up with biochemistry and imaging at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months post-EUS-RFA).

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Insulinoma verified by pathology (often from EUS-FNB-sampling)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients unwilling to participate
  • Patients unable to understand and obtain written informed conscent
  • Severe comorbidity

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.
