Condition: Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) · Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor (NET) · Sponsor: Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Patients with pancreatic cancer (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET)) commonly experience fat malabsorption due to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) and leads to gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, malnutrition, weight loss, and reduced quality of life (QoL). Current standard treatment, pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT), is limited by suboptimal adherence, high cost, and partial effectiveness to prevent fat malabsorption. The objective of the study is to assess the feasibility and maintenance of lipid absorption function of a structured lipid medical food (SLMF; Encala®) powder in subjects with PDAC and NET with EPI.
