RAMPS VS SRPS for Pancreatic Body and Tail Adenocarcinoma

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Radical Antegrade Modular Pancreatosplenectomy
Registration Number
NCT04253847
Lead Sponsor
Ruijin Hospital
Brief Summary

Two arms RCT is design, patients with pancreatic body or tail adenocarcinoma will be randomly assigned to the Radical Antegrade Modular Pancreaticosplenectomy (RAMPS) group or Standard Retrograde Pancreatosplenectomy (SRPS) group. The primary objective is to evaluate the effect of RAMPS on the overall survival of patients with resectable body and tail pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. And the secondary objective is to evaluate the disease-free survival, R0 resection rate, number of retrieved lymph nodes and perioperative outcomes like postoperative complication rate, severe complications, mortality and functional recovery time between the experimental group and control group.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall survival21 months

Overall survival was defined as the time from surgery to either death or last follow-up. Patients will be observed or contacted every 2 months in the first 2 years after surgery and then every 3 months thereafter. Overall survival measurement will be based on patient's survival status and what is the date of death if the patient is not alive.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Disease free survival11 months

DFS was calculated from the date of surgery to the date of recurrence or last follow-up if recurrence did not occur. Recurrence was diagnosed by imaging examination like CT, MRI, PET-CT and PET-MRI.

retrieved lymph nodes1 month

The dissected lymph nodes will be sent to pathology department and the pathologists will separate the lymph nodes and give reports about how many lymph nodes are found and if the lymph nodes are positive or negative.

R0 resection rate1 month

R0 resection was defined as absence of malignant cells within 1 mm from the resection margin using the Royal College of Pathologists definition. The assessment of the margin status will be done by pathologists.
