Pentoxifylline Treatment of Acute Pancreatitis

NCT01292005 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects (good and bad) of giving a drug called pentoxifylline to patients with acute pancreatitis, to see if it can improve blood tests associated with inflammation (tissue damage). Pentoxifylline is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of circulation problems, but its use in this study is investigational, which means that the FDA has not approved it for the treatment of pancreatitis. However, the FDA has allowed the use of pentoxifylline in this research study.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT01292005

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT01292005 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as Early Phase 1, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 28 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Mayo Clinic, which has 3,246 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Acute Pancreatitis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Placebo is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT01292005 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Minnesota. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
