    Trial Using Octreotide to Enhance Liver Recovery After Hepatectomy

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

This will be a prospective, randomized, double blind trial enrolling patients who will undergo major liver resection. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either octreotide or placebo in the postoperative period. The patients will receive octreotide intravenously continuously for five days after operation. During this period the patients' health will be monitored by performing blood tests including complete metabolic profile, Complete Blood Count (CBC) with/diff., INR and PTT. The functioning of heart will also be monitored post-operatively by EKG. Up to 80 participants will be accrued over a 2 year period. Volumetric CT scans will be performed prior to hepatectomy, 1 week after hepatectomy and 3 months after hepatectomy to evaluate liver regeneration.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Rates of Liver Recovery Will be Determined by Area Under the Curve (AUC) for Total Bilirubin and INR for Each Group

    Time frame · 0 to 120 hours post dose

    Registry description

    To compare the rates of liver recovery in patients treated with octreotide vs placebo after a major hepatectomy.

Secondary outcomes(2)
  1. Rate of Hepatic Parenchymal Regeneration in Patients Treated With Octreotide Vs Placebo After Major Liver Hepatectomy.

    Time frame · 14 weeks

    Registry description

    Hepatic parenchymal regeneration will be evaluated by hepatic volume measured by CT scan pre-operatively, at 1 week post-operatively and 3 months post operatively.

  2. Evaluate the Incidence of Post-hepatectomy Liver Failure, Bile Leak, Overall.

    Time frame · 3 months

    Registry description

    Evaluate the incidence of post-hepatectomy liver failure, bile leak, overall as well as 30-day and 90 day morbidity and mortality using American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Definitions (ACS-NSQIP).
