简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the EUS-RFA in terms of efficacy for pain management and improvement in quality-of-life parameters for patients with advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer. The primary objectives of this study are to 1) evaluate the utility of EUS-RFA for pain control and improvement in quality-of-life parameters for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer; 2) to measure the reduction of analgesic medications' requirements in patients affected by inoperable pancreatic cancer.

研究组 & 干预措施
Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer
Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Radiofrequency Ablation of Celiac Ganglion
干预措施: Ablation of Celiac Ganglion (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
Quality of Life (EORTC C30)
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Changes in Quality of Life as scored with the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire core questionnaire (C30). This measure uses a Likert type scale 1-4 with 1=better and 4=worse.
Quality of Life (NFHSI)
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Changes in Quality of Life as scored with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Hepatobiliary-Pancreatic Symptom Index (NFHSI). This measure uses a Likert type scale 0-4 with 0=no symptoms and 4= worst symptoms.
Pain severity-BPI
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Change in severity of pain will be assessed using a standardized the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).
Pain severity-NRS
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Change in severity of pain will be assessed using numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).
Pain severity-VAS
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Change in severity of pain will be assessed using visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).
Concomitant Analgesic/Narcotic Use
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Percent change in concomitant analgesic therapy will be evaluated. Details on the dose and frequency of opioid medications administered within 24 hours before the intervention will be collected and at different follow-up intervals after the procedure. The total dose of analgesic therapy administered will then be converted into an oral morphine equivalent dose for comparison.
Quality of Life (EORTC PAN26)
时间窗: From Baseline up to 3 Months
Changes in Quality of Life as scored with the Europen Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire pancreatic cancer module (PAN26). This measure uses a Likert type scale 1-4 with 1=better and 4=worse.
