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.

- 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.

This study looks at differences in microbes (tiny organisms) using previously collected pancreatic tissue samples. It may help doctors understand how the microbiome relates to pancreatic diseases like pancreatic cancer.
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 study looks at how certain substances in your blood and bacteria in your gut might help predict pancreatic cancer, especially in people with chronic pancreatitis. It aims to find early warning signs to catch cancer sooner.
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 analyzes immune system markers in blood samples to help predict which people with chronic pancreatitis (long-term pancreas inflammation) might develop pancreatic cancer. Researchers will compare blood patterns in healthy people, those with chronic pancreatitis, and those recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
This study looks at gut bacteria in people who had Whipple surgery for pancreatic cancer and in healthy volunteers. It aims to understand how the microbiome changes after surgery.
