Pancreatic Cyst Fluid Glucose: New Armamentarium in the Diagnosis of Mucinous Pancreatic Cystic Lesion (CYST FLUID 01)

January 2, 2024 updated by: Asian Institute of Gastroenterology, India

Primary objectives

• To check for sensitivity and specificity of cystic fluid glucose level for differentiating the mucinous & non mucinous pancreatic cyst

Secondary Objectives:

  • comparison of cystic fluid tumor makers like CEA with cystic fluid glucose level.
  • Check for cutoff value of cystic fluid glucose level for diagnosis of mucinous pancreatic cyst in Indian population.

Study Overview

Status

Not yet recruiting

Detailed Description

For patients who have a pancreatic cyst bigger than 2cm found during a radiology exam, they will undergo an Endoscopic ultrasound exam to check the cyst and fluid will be collected for testing, including glucose, CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen), and amylase. A biopsy will be done if possible. We will analyze how well the glucose level in the fluid can tell us if the cyst is cancerous or not, using CEA level, EUS findings, and amylase level as the standard. This is an observational study, and patients will receive standard medical treatment. The study won't change the treatment they receive.
