Testing how endoscopy affects quality of life in chronic pancreatitis
This study looks at how different endoscopic procedures (procedures done using a scope) affect quality of life in people with painful chronic pancreatitis. It may help doctors better choose treatments that improve day-to-day well-being.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT04743479Recruiting
AI screening for pancreatic cancer in higher-risk people
This trial uses an artificial-intelligence tool to help detect pancreatic cancer earlier and track people at higher risk. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and have imaging tests like MRI or CT to see how well the approach works.
ShanghaiAges 50–75 - NCT02775461Recruiting
Registry for people at high risk for pancreatic cancer
This study is a registry (a way to track health over time) for people with a strong family history or certain inherited genetic risks for pancreatic cancer. It may help doctors learn how best to monitor and protect high-risk people, and to see who benefits most from follow-up.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07696572Recruiting
Testing a new device for EUS procedures
This trial is studying a new tool called the RIVOS™ EUS access device, which is used during a type of internal ultrasound called endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). The goal is to see how well it works for people who need this procedure.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07447687RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Soy tomato juice for pancreatitis symptoms
This trial tests whether drinking a special soy tomato juice can help people with chronic or recurrent pancreatitis feel better and have fewer flare-ups.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT06936800Enrolling by invitation
Pinaverium Bromide to Prevent Pain After Shock Wave Treatment
This trial tests if a drug called pinaverium bromide can help prevent pancreatitis and reduce pain after a procedure that uses shock waves to break up large gallstones in the pancreas. It may be an option for people with chronic pancreatitis and stones that are at least 5 mm wide.
Jinan, Wenhuaxi RoadAges 18–85 - NCT07536841Recruiting
Testing New Criteria for Autoimmune Pancreas Inflammation
This study validates a new diagnostic tool (Odesa Criteria 2026) to help doctors accurately identify autoimmune pancreatitis—a rare condition where the body attacks the pancreas. If you're being evaluated for possible pancreas inflammation, this trial may help confirm whether you have this specific type.
OdesaAges 18 years+ - NCT07015580Recruiting
Mouth bacteria in pancreatitis types
This study looks at the bacteria in your mouth to see if they are different in chronic pancreatitis and autoimmune pancreatitis. It might help doctors understand these diseases better.
Shanghai, Shanghai, ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07285863RecruitingPhase 4
How Secretin Changes Pancreatic Fluid in Healthy People
This study tests how a drug called secretin affects the fluid in your pancreas. It is for healthy people who are already having an endoscopic ultrasound for another reason.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–80 - NCT06283576Enrolling by invitation
Pancreatic cancer early detection with blood test
This trial studies a blood test to find pancreatic cancer early. It may help people who are at risk or have suspicious signs.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06651580Recruiting
Gene study for kids with pancreas problems
This study collects samples like blood or tissue from children with pancreatitis to look for gene changes that might raise their risk. It helps doctors learn more about why some children get pancreas inflammation.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 17 years - NCT04813055Recruiting
Registry study for ultrasound during therapeutic endoscopy
This study keeps a careful record (registry) of patients who need ultrasound-guided therapeutic endoscopy. It aims to learn how well and safely this ultrasound technique works during real-life procedures.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06549725Recruiting
Lipidica software for pancreatic cancer screening
This trial tests a software that analyzes fats (lipids) in your blood to find pancreatic cancer early. You may join if you have pancreatic cancer that can be removed with surgery, or if you are at very high risk due to family history or certain gene mutations.
Prague, CzechiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06330441Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer screening for high-risk groups
This study screens people at high risk for pancreatic cancer using imaging tests. It aims to catch cancer early in those with certain genetic conditions or strong family history.
BrnoAges 18 years+ - NCT03099850Recruiting
Studying chronic pancreatitis using follow-up tests
This study follows people with chronic pancreatitis to learn more about the disease and how to better diagnose it. You may have research-related scans or procedures and will be asked to stay in follow-up over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT03568630Recruiting
Blood tests to study early pancreatic cancer risk
This study looks at blood “markers” to find early signs or higher risk for pancreatic cancer. You may join if you have certain risk factors (like new diabetes, pancreatic cysts/pancreatitis, or a strong family history) and can come to Omaha for blood draws twice a year.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT05095532RecruitingPhase 1
TP-IAT transplant with your own cells for type 1 diabetes
This early-stage study tests whether adding your own special cells (mesenchymal stromal cells) at the same time as a TP-IAT transplant can improve diabetes outcomes. It may help people who are already planning TP-IAT, but it is only for certain age, diabetes, and health criteria.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06698302Recruiting
Validation of a Spanish pain questionnaire (COMPAT-SF)
This study asks Spanish-speaking people with chronic pancreatitis to fill out a questionnaire about their pain. It aims to test whether a Spanish version of the COMPAT (a pain-assessment tool) works well.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06917716Recruiting
Chinese pain survey for chronic pancreatitis patients
This study is testing a new questionnaire to better measure pain in people with chronic pancreatitis. It aims to help doctors understand and treat your pain more effectively.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03097185Recruiting
Checking how well transplanted islet cells work in chronic pancreatitis
This study looks at how well a treatment works after islet cell transplantation done for people with long-term (chronic) pancreatitis. It may help doctors better understand graft (transplant) function and how to choose the best approach and follow-up.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05540197Enrolling by invitation
Test whether arginine affects early results after islet transplant
This trial studies whether taking arginine changes how well people do soon after an islet transplant. It may help improve early outcomes and guide care for people who are getting ready for this treatment.
Leiden, South HollandAges 16 years+ - NCT05287737Enrolling by invitation
After TPIAT and blood-sugar sensor study
This study looks at outcomes after a procedure called TPIAT (total pancreatectomy with islet auto-transplantation), which aims to improve insulin function and blood-sugar control. It may help doctors better understand how people do over time after the procedure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic pancreatitis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 54 recruiting chronic pancreatitis studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a chronic pancreatitis trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a chronic pancreatitis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
