Prophylactic PS Placement to Prevent Pancreatitis After Endoscopic Transpapillary GPC for Cholelithiasis With Concomitant Choledocholithiasis 88 Randomized

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT07495111 is an interventional study for Cholelithiasis Associated With Common Bile Duct Stones that is recruiting. It started on 1 December 2025 with plans to enroll 88 participants. Led by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, it is expected to complete by 1 June 2028. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 27 March 2026.
Brief Summary
In this multicenter, randomized trial, patients with cholelithiasis with concomitant choledocholithiasis based on inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to receive rectal indomethacin alone or the combination of indomethacin plus a prophylactic pancreatic stent after endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy.Clinical data and patient-reported outcomes are regularly colle...Show More

Prophylactic pancreatic stent
All procedure-related interventions except for the administration of rectal indomethacin and placement of a prophylactic stent were left to the discretion of the endoscopist.During ERCP, once eligibility was confirmed, patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a prophylactic stent or not.In patients assigned to the indomethacin plus stent group, endoscopists were expected to attempt stent placement, although...Show More
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
The Proportion of Patients with Post-ERCP Pancreatitis
If a patient exhibits two out of the following three characteristics, a diagnosis of postoperative pancreatitis is made: (1) Abdominal pain consistent with acute pancreatitis, (2) Serum amylase and/or lipase levels at least three times the upper limit of normal, and (3) Abdominal imaging studies showing radiological changes consistent with acute pancreatitis.
24 hours to 72 hours after ERCP
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
The Proportion of Patients with Mild, Moderate or Severe Post-ERCP Pancreatitis
The severity was defined as mild post-ERCP pancreatitis resulting in a hospitalization of ≤3 days, moderate post-ERCP pancreatitis resulting in a hospitalization of 4-10 days, and severe post-ERCP pancreatitis resulting in a hospitalization of \> 10 days, or leading to the development of pancreatic necrosis or pseudocyst, or requiring percutaneous or surgical intervention.
Within 1 months after ERCP
Clinical Success Rate
Complete removal of gallbladder stones.
Within 1 months after ERCP
The Proportion of Patients with Other Complications
Other complications mainly include bleeding, cholangitis, cholecystitis, perforation, hypoxemia, hypotension or hypertension, etc.
Within 6 months after ERCP
