Serine Protease Inhibitor
Anti-Inflammatory Therapy for Chronic Pancreatitis
Recruiting3 awardsPhase 4
Minneapolis, Minnesota
This trial will study whether two anti-inflammatory therapies can reduce damage to transplanted islets and improve long-term outcomes for patients with severe chronic pancreatitis who have had their pancreas removed and their islets transplanted into the liver.
Proglumide for Chronic Pancreatitis
Recruiting0 awardsPhase 1 & 2
Washington, District of Columbia
This trial tests proglumide, an older drug, to see if it can help people with chronic pancreatitis by blocking a protein that causes inflammation and pain. The study targets patients with severe symptoms and aims to reduce their pain and improve pancreatic function.
Anti-fibrotic agent
Pirfenidone for Acute Pancreatitis
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 1 & 2
Birmingham, Alabama
This trial is testing pirfenidone, a medication already used for lung disease, to see if it can help patients with severe acute pancreatitis. The goal is to find out if it is safe and if it can reduce inflammation and improve symptoms. Patients will be monitored closely throughout the study.
Procedure
Endoscopic Surgery Techniques for Pancreatitis
Recruiting1 award4 criteria
Orlando, Florida
This trial compares two methods of using a camera and tools through the mouth to remove dead tissue from the pancreas in patients with necrotizing pancreatitis. One method does it all at once, while the other does it gradually. The goal is to see which method works better for these patients.

Behavioural Intervention
Electrical Acustimulation for Chronic Pancreatitis
Recruiting1 award2 criteria
Ann Arbor, Michigan
This trial will test if a noninvasive acupuncture method called Transcutaneous Electrical Acustimulation (TEA) can help reduce abdominal pain in patients with painful chronic pancreatitis. It involves using a
Behavioral Intervention
Online Pain Management for Chronic Pancreatitis
Recruiting0 awards4 criteria
Seattle, Washington
This trial aims to help people with chronic pancreatitis who suffer from severe abdominal pain. The study will use an online program to teach self-management techniques to reduce pain and improve quality of life. The goal
Behavioural Intervention
Intermittent Fasting for Pancreatitis
Recruiting1 award4 criteria
Cleveland, Ohio
This trial is testing intermittent fasting to help people with recurrent acute and chronic pancreatitis. The fasting process releases fatty acids that turn into ketones, providing energy and reducing inflammation and scarring in the pancreas.
QST for Chronic Pancreatitis
Recruiting1 award9 criteria
Indianapolis, Indiana
This trial will use a new technique, quantitative sensory testing (QST), to map pain patterns in people with chronic pancreatitis (CP). QST has the potential to improve treatment for CP and may eventually be able to predict response to CP therapies.

Diagnostic Test
Diagnostic Imaging for Pancreatitis
Recruiting3 awardsPhase 4
Cincinnati, Ohio
This trial seeks to understand how MRI can be used to identify pancreatitis & predict long-term complications. It includes tests like endoscopy, blood tests, stool tests & MRI scans. Some participants will receive intravenous secretin.
Corticosteroid
Corticosteroids for Acute Pancreatitis
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 2
Boston, Massachusetts
This trial is testing if giving hydrocortisone can help patients with severe acute pancreatitis by reducing inflammation. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve their health and reduce the time they need to stay in the hospital. Hydrocortisone seems to be effective in treating the early inflammation associated with severe acute pancreatitis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
