Brief Title: EUS-FNI for Nonfunctional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
Official Title: Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Fine-needle Injection for Nonfunctional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: a Prospective Multicenter Study
Study ID: NCT05566093
Brief Summary: The current study aims to access the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of EUS-FNI for nonfunctional pNETs
Detailed Description: The management of nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF-pNETs) remains controversial. In general, surgical resection is the standard treatment for NF-pNETs. However, the incidence of postoperative adverse events of surgical resection is relatively high. Recently, several studies have revealed that endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided fine-needle injection (EUS-FNI) with ethanol or lauromacrogol may offer an effective treatment for pNETs. Therefore, a multicenter prospective study is being conducted to further identify the efficacy and safety of EUS-FNI for NF-pNETs.
