The Effect of PPI on Endoscopic Treatment of WON: a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial.
China120 participantsStarted 2026-03-20
Plain-language summary
In this multicenter, randomized controlled trial, patients with pancreatic walled-off necrosis based on inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either receive intravenous infusion or oral administration of continuous proton pump inhibitor or to undergo no PPI (nPPI) therapy after endoscopic ultrasound-guided transluminal drainage/debridement. Clinical data and patient-reported outcomes will be systematically collected at baseline and during follow-up periods. The study aims to assess whether PPI use after EUS-TD (Endoscopic Ultrasonography-Guided Transmural Drainage) increases the number of direct endoscopic necrosectomies required to managing WON. Additionally, the study will investigate the impact of PPI use on the incidence of stent occlusion and postoperative complications following EUS-TD, as well as its effect on the average duration of hospitalization and associated costs for patients with WON.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

. Patients undergoing endoscopic drainage solely through the duodenum.
. Patients with a history of gastrectomy, gastric bypass surgery, or prior surgery for pancreatic-related diseases.
. Patients currently taking medications that may affect gastric acid secretion or metabolism, such as strong cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 inhibitors (e.g., clarithromycin, itraconazole) or inducers (e.g., rifampin, carbamazepine).
. Patients requiring long-term use of acid-suppressing medications such as PPIs and P-CABs due to other medical conditions.
