A Randomized, Single Site, Double Blind, Fixed Dose, Cross Over Study of Viokase 16, Viokase16 Plus Nexium and Nexium Alone in the Reduction of Abdominal Pain in Patients With Chronic Pancreatitis
Our primary hypothesis is that the addition of Nexium to Viokase 16 will decrease the
chronic abdominal pain in patients with small duct chronic pancreatitis in a superior
fashion compared to Viokase 16 plus placebo or to Nexium alone. A secondary hypothesis would
be an increase in quality of life. Our objective is to elucidate the role of Nexium in the
control of pancreatic pain, quality of life, and narcotic usage alone or when added to
Viokase 16. Our endpoints are the reduction of abdominal pain, decreased pain medication
usage, decreased ER visits and decreased hospital admissions for abdominal pain.
