About this trial

The overriding objective of DREAM is to conduct a prospective longitudinal (36 months) observational clinical study to investigate the incidence, etiology, and pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus (DM) following acute pancreatitis (AP).

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) 0-90 days prior to enrollment date

Participant fully understands and is able to participate in all aspects of the study, including providing informed consent, completion of case report forms (CRFs), telephone interviews, metabolic testing, and planned longitudinal follow-ups

Disqualifiers

Diagnosis of definite chronic pancreatitis (CP) at enrollment based on either of the following criteria met by computed tomography (CT) scan (including non-contrast enhanced) or Magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) or Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP): (a) Parenchymal or ductal calcifications on CT scan (after excluding the possibility that calcifications are vascular); (b) Intraductal filling defects suggestive of calcifications on MRI and/or MRCP

Potential participants with post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (post- ERCP) AP who are hospitalized for <48 hours.

Prior (i.e., before enrollment) direct endoscopic necrosectomy of the pancreas or percutaneous necrosectomy or drainage of necrotic collection(s). Participants who require this during follow-up will remain in the study

Pancreatic tumors, including ductal adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine tumors, and metastasis
