Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

13C breath di-peptide tests are an effective non-invasive tool to detect pancreatic exocrine function in patients with Chronic Pancreatitis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of the study is to assess the pancreatic exocrine insufficiency using a 13C labeled di-peptide breath tests in patients with chronic pancreatitis(CP) and show correlation with secretin stimulated endoscopic Pancreatic Function Test (ePFT). Furthermore, a second purpose is to assess the ability to differentiate between non patients with chronic pancreatitis and those without. Approximately 30 subjects will be tested with both methods within two weeks of each other.
