Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Perioperative Immune Function and Clinical Complications in Pancreaduodenectomy

Study Description

Brief Summary: Perioperative immunologic signatures can predict the risk of postoperative complications. The results will be puplished as two smanuscripts. The manuscript will focus on preoperative immunologisk data,the second manuscript will include both pre- and postoperative data.

Detailed Description: OBJECTIVE Establish evidence for perioperative immunologic risk stratification of patient's risk for clinically postoperative inflammatory complications as a basis for future mechanism-based intervention studies. Combining detailed immune assessment from cell-receptors to cell expression, cytokines, and complications with a temporal aspect is innovative and provides highly warranted novel multidimensional immunological insight. METHODS Adult patients scheduled for PD on the suspicion of pancreatic cancer excluding patients receiving immunomodulating treatment 1 month properatively and/or autoimmune diseases. Patients scheduled for simultaneous procedures on major blood vessels, and/or adjacent organs (spleen, liver) are also not included. Inoperable patients, for instance, due to carcinosis, circulatory/ventilatory instability hindering procedure completion and/or concomitant surgery on major blood vessels, spleen, or liver, are excluded post-inclusion and will not be part of the primary analysis. Patients eligible for inclusion will be identified before their appointment at the Gastrosurgical Dept., Rigshospitalet which is the largest DK and North-European center with about 200 PD/yr annually. Primary outcome: Persistent postoperative hypotension, defined as need for vassopressor infussion on the morning after surgery to maintain middle arterial bloodpressure \>65 mmHg
