简要总结
RATIONALE: Giving medications in different ways may change their effectiveness in controlling pain. It is not yet known whether intrathecal therapy is more effective than standard therapy in controlling pain in patients with pancreatic cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying standard pain control to see how well it works compared with intrathecal therapy in controlling pain in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic pancreatic cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To compare the effectiveness of pain control comprising intrathecal opioid delivery versus the standard analgesia-delivery method in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Secondary
- To assess the difference of a total amount of opioid consumption (parenteral morphine equivalent) between two different opioids-delivery groups at one month of treatment.
- To assess the average of percent change in Karnofsky performance status with respect to the baseline status between two different analgesic-delivery groups at one month of treatment.
- To assess the difference in quality of life between two different opioids-delivery groups at one month of treatment using the EORTC QLQ-C30.
- To assess overall survival of these patients.
- To assess the safety profile of two different analgesic-delivery methods (i.e., adverse event and serious adverse event).

研究组 & 干预措施
morphine
morphine given traditionally (IV, pill, patch). This is standard of care dosing.
干预措施: morphine sulfate (Drug)
Intrathecal pump
Pump internal used to deliver morphine. This is a newer method for delivery of morphine. Morphine is FDA approved for intrathecal use. The intrathecal pump will be titrated gradually to effect by the interventional pain medicine team. These are the maximum doses and concentrations in keeping with the Polyanalgesic Consensus Conference guidelines: Dose (mg/day):15 ; Conc (mg/cc): 20
干预措施: Medtronic intrathecal pump (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Number of Subjects Per Arm With Decrease in Pain Scores
时间窗: 1 month
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of pain control between intrathecal opioid delivery and standard analgesia delivery method in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer. The primary end point is the number of subjects on each arm showing a decrease in the change in VAS self-assessment pain intensity rating (VAS pain rating) at one month from initial treatment with respect to the baseline pain score. The change is defined as (the Pain Score at one month of the treatment - the Pain Score at baseline). Serial pain scores will be collected at all assessment time points. Min: zero cm. Max 10cm. A higher value means worse pain. Subjects on each arm will report pain on a 10 cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain rating scale, by making a mark on the 10cm horizontal line with a pen and study team will measure distance from the mark to the start of the scale, which will indicate pain score (eg 1 cm, 3 cm 6 cm, etc.).
