Brief summary public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary safety and efficacy data after endoscopic ultrasound-guided celiac plexus neurolysis (EUS-CPN) in patients with locally advanced or unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Hypotheses: 1. Increased amounts of alcohol used in EUS-CPN is safe and more efficacious in improving pain relief in patients with locally advanced or unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma. 2. Effective pain relief obtained from EUS-CPN will be related to better quality of life (QOL)
