Scientific title | SharkCore biopsy needle versus standard FNA needle in the diagnosis of solid pancreatic masses a randomised controlled cross-over trial of endoscopic ultrasound guided tissue acquisition - The SharkBITE study |
Study acronym | SharkBITE |
Study objectives | The aim of this study is to compare the performance of a standard fine needle aspiration needle and the Sharkcore biopsy needle in endoscopic ultrasound guided pancreatic tissue sampling. |
Ethics approval(s) | North East - Newcastle & North Tyneside 1 Research Ethics Committee, 08/02/2017, ref: 16/NW/0082 |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Specialty: Gastroenterology, Primary sub-specialty: Gastroenterology; UKCRC code/ Disease: Cancer/ Malignant neoplasms of digestive organs |
Intervention | Adult patients with a solid pancreatic mass of any size, requiring EUS guided tissue sampling to make a diagnosis will be eligible to participate. Participants will be randomised to an initial 3 passes with Beacon FNA and then Beacon SharkCore biopsy needles or vice versa. 25g needles will be used for trans duodenal puncture and 22g for transgastric puncture. Randomisation will be via a computer generated list of allocations provided by the statistician to the trial in advance of the study. Whenever a participant is recruited the list will be referred to see what their treatment order is. All procedures will be performed/supervised by expert endosonographers. Samples will be interpreted by 2 separate groups of pathologists. The pathologists reporting the samples will be blinded to the results with the alternative device. Each participant’s involvement in the study will continue for 7 days post procedure to allow for monitoring for adverse events. There will be a telephone call after 7 days to ascertain any post procedure adverse event. Study duration is envisaged as 16 months comprising 10 months recruitment and 6 months follow up. |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | Diagnostic performance of the 2 needle types will be measured by comparing the sensitivity of standard Beacon FNA needle to the SharkCore (FNB) core biopsy needle in the sampling of solid pancreatic mass lesions. |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Adequacy of the samples obtained as reported by the pathologist utilising a standard methodology 2. The duration of pathologist reporting time 3. Overall costs including device, pathology processing and pathology lab time |
