Predicting success and risks in endoscopic ampullectomy
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at people who had a procedure to remove a growth (called an ampullary adenoma) from a small opening in the digestive tract. The goal is to find out what helps the treatment work well and what might cause side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You had a growth removed from the ampulla (a small opening in the digestive tract) using an endoscope
- The growth was 30 mm or smaller (including any flat parts)
- The growth was not cancer and did not extend into nearby ducts
- Your doctor has followed your health for at least one year after the procedure

This study looks at long-term outcomes after removing a growth in the duodenum or near the bile/pancreas opening (ampulla) using an endoscope. You may benefit by closely monitoring your recovery and long-term health after the procedure.
This study looks at how well people do over time after having non-cancerous or early-stage growths in the duodenum or ampulla removed during an endoscopy. It aims to understand the long-term safety and effectiveness of this procedure.
This study follows patients who are having surgery to remove a specific type of flat colon growth. It aims to see how safe and effective a “selective” approach is, based on what the growth looks like and your situation.
This study looks at the use of endoscopy (a thin, flexible tube with a camera) to diagnose and treat growths in the pancreas, bile ducts, or nearby areas. It aims to understand how well this approach works in people who need it as part of their standard care.
This trial tests whether a blood-clotting gel (PuraStat®) can help prevent bleeding after endoscopic removal of certain ampulla/duodenal growths. You might be offered the gel during the procedure to lower the risk of post-procedure bleeding.
This trial compares a modified surgical technique to the standard one for removing pancreatic tumors. It aims to see if the new method lowers the risk of a leak from the pancreas after surgery.
