Incremental Value of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Selection of Pancreatic Cancer Patients for Surgery

Incremental Value of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Selection of Pancreatic Cancer Patients for Surgery (MAGIPAC): A Randomized Clinical Trial.


Sponsor

University of Aarhus

Enrollment

200 participants

Start Date

Aug 30, 2022

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The aim of the study is to examine the incremental value of using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in addition to computed tomography (CT) in the diagnostic workup of pancreatic cancer patients.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 99 Years

Inclusion Criteria4

  • Pancreatic cancer patients considered to have a locally resectable or borderline resectable tumor by the local hepato-pancreato-biliary multidisciplinary team board
  • No liver metastases on CT
  • At least 18 years old and able to provide informed consent
  • Expected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma based on CT scan

Exclusion Criteria7

  • Metastatic disease
  • Prior receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy or downstaging/-sizing treatment
  • Comorbidity rendering major surgery unfeasible (inoperable)
  • No informed consent
  • Unable to undergo MRI (Kidney insufficiency (eGFR \< 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 body surface ar-ea); Claustrophobia; Cardiac pacemaker)
  • Postoperative histology other than adenocarcinoma of pancreato-biliary origin.
  • MRI with liver-specific contrast performed during standard workup.

Interventions
