Brief Summary:
Comparison of confocal laser endomicroscopic in vivo diagnosis and ex vivo examination against surgical histopathology of cystic pancreatic lesions.

Condition or disease
Cystic Pancreatic Disorders

Detailed Description:
The primary objective of the study is to assess the ability of nCLE (AQ-Flex) to accurately diagnose the type of CPL by comparing in vivo and ex vivo CLE patterns to final histopathology of surgically resected CPLs. The primary endpoints are whether or not the CLE diagnosis correlates with final diagnosis (yes vs. no).

Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Diagnosis of cystic pancreatic lesion (CPL) using nCLE (confocal laser endomicroscopy) [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
    Comparing the ability of nCLE to accurately diagnose the type of CPL by comparing in vivo and ex vivo CLE patterns to final histopathology of surgically resected CPLs.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Detection of high-grade dysplasia and/or adenocarcinoma by CLE imaging [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
  2. CLE imaging interpretation variation [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
    Calculate inter-observer variation in CLE image interpretation


Biospecimen Retention:   None Retained

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

For in vivo nCLE (needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy) (Part 1):

  • All patients must satisfy inclusive criteria for in vivo nCLE.
  • All patients should have completed EUS-guided nCLE.
  • All patients should have a CPL lesion referred for surgical removal based on recommended international consensus guidelines1 and inter-departmental consensus pancreatic tumor board meeting (departments of surgical oncology, radiology, pathology and gastroenterology).
  • Patient participated and completed in vivo nCLE (Part 1)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unable to obtain informed consent
  • Unable to tolerate the procedure
  • Women with known pregnancy at time of procedure
  • Patient age less than 18 years
