Glucose and enzyme function in chronic pancreatitis
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how chronic pancreatitis affects blood sugar and digestion. It tests if your body makes enough enzymes and how your sugar control changes over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You have been diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis
- Your average blood sugar (HbA1c) is between 4% and 6%
- Your fecal elastase-1 (a measure of digestive enzyme function) is less than 100 µg/g
- You cannot have diabetes or prediabetes, and you cannot be taking pancreatic enzymes

This study looks at how blood sugar levels and certain hormones change in people with diabetes caused by chronic pancreatitis. It may help doctors better understand and manage this condition, so the findings could improve care for others like you.
This trial tests a new blood test to measure how well your pancreas works. It may help people with chronic pancreatitis understand their condition and quality of life.
This trial tests whether enzymes from microbes work as well as enzymes from pigs to help people with chronic pancreatitis digest food better. It aims to find a treatment that reduces symptoms like pain and poor digestion.
This study looks at how acute pancreatitis affects blood sugar and the risk of developing diabetes. You'll wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor and have metabolic tests to track changes over time.
This trial tests whether a pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) can help people who still have digestive problems after a recent episode of acute pancreatitis. The goal is to see if it improves symptoms like stomach pain, bloating, or diarrhea.
This study looks at how blood sugar levels and gut bacteria relate to pancreatic problems, including cysts, inflammation, and cancer. By joining, you help researchers understand these connections better, which could lead to new ways to treat or manage these conditions.
