Mouth bacteria in pancreatitis types
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have chronic pancreatitis or autoimmune pancreatitis.
- You must be willing to sign a consent form and give a sample.
- You cannot have had digestive system surgery before.
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You cannot have other digestive diseases like inflammatory bowel disease or acid reflux.
- You must not have taken antibiotics, immune-suppressing drugs, or probiotics in the last 30 days.

This study looks at the bacteria living in your gut and pancreas to understand how they might affect pancreatic cancer and precancerous changes. It is for people who are already scheduled for an endoscopic procedure to look at or treat a pancreatic lesion.
This trial studies bacteria found inside pancreatic tumors to see if they can help diagnose or predict the course of the disease. You may be eligible if you have a suspected pancreatic cancer and need a special biopsy (EUS-FNB).
This study looks at blood markers and gut bacteria to better understand the risk of pancreatic cancer in people with chronic pancreatitis (long-term pancreas inflammation). It may help detect cancer earlier or guide prevention.
This trial studies how “inflammation” in the pancreas changes over time—going from a first or repeated attack to long-term (chronic) pancreatitis. It may help doctors understand what drives progression and identify people at higher risk for chronic disease.
This study looks at the bacteria in your mouth and how they might be linked to colon polyps. Researchers want to see if certain mouth bacteria affect the body's immune system and increase the risk of polyps.
This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut (microbiome) might affect the severity of a first-time acute pancreatitis attack. It aims to see if certain gut bacteria can predict how serious the illness will be, which could help doctors treat patients better.
