Measure
Zenpep
* Pancrelipase (Zenpep) will be administered with every meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and snack(s), continuously. * Participants will begin pancrelipase on the day of enrollment and continue therapy until 1 year after surgery per calendar date Pancrelipase: Zenpep is a combination of three enzymes (proteins). These enzymes are normally produced by the pancreas and are important in the digestion of fats, proteins, and sugars. Zenpep is used to replace these enzymes when the body does not have enough of its own as a result of surgery and/or pancreatic cancer.

Quantify serum albumin (g/dl ) to correlate pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy with nutrition status before and after surgery and adjuvant therapy for early stage pancreatic cancer

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 52 weeks

Population: Patients did not meet pathologic criteria upon surgery. Trial was subsequently terminated by sponsor due to sponsor acquisition.

Measure body weight (in kg) at regular intervals throughout study participation to investigate whether pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy improves nutrition status during surgery and adjuvant treatment for early stage pancreatic cancer

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 52 weeks

Population: Patients did not meet pathologic criteria upon surgery. Trial was subsequently terminated by sponsor due to sponsor acquisition.

Subjects to complete EQ-5D-5L at regular intervals throughout study participation. The scale consists of 5 questions, one each to assess mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each question has answers ranging from No Problems (level 1) to Extreme Problems (level 5). Subjects also to rate their overall health on a given day using the EuroQoL Visual Analog Scale (EQ-VAS) as a part of the EQ-5D-5L, which consists of marking on a visual scale from 0-100 (with 100 being best imaginable health and 0 being worst health imaginable).
