Camostat Mesilate, Pancrelipase, and Rabeprazole Combination Therapy Improves Epigastric Pain in Early Chronic Pancreatitis and Functional Dyspepsia with Pancreatic Enzyme Abnormalities.
    Digestion, 2019, Volume: 99, Issue:4

    The aims of the study are to clarify the pathophysiological differences among early chronic pancreatitis (ECP), functional dyspepsia with pancreatic (FD-P) enzyme abnormalities and FD patients and to determine whether camostat mesilate, pancrelipase, and rabeprazole triple therapy improve FD symptoms in the ECP patients and FD-P patients in cross-over way.. We enrolled 84 consecutive patients presenting with typical symptoms of FD patients (n = 42), ECP patients (n = 15), and FD-P patients (n = 27). Gastric emptying was assessed by the 13C-acetate breath test. ECP was diagnosed based on the criteria recommended by the Japan Pancreatic Association.. The proportions of female in ECP patients and FD-P were significantly higher compared to that in FD patients. The early phase of gastric emptying in ECP and FD-P patients was significantly disturbed compared to that in FD patients. The primary outcome of this study is that 4 weeks of camostat mesilate, pancrelipase, and rabeprazole triple therapy significantly ameliorated epigastric pain in ECP patients compared to acotiamide and rabeprazole combination therapy.. Although there were no significant differences in pathophysiology between ECP patients and FD-P patients, triple therapy can significantly ameliorate epigastric pain in ECP patients. Further studies will be needed to clarify why triple therapy can improve epigastric pain in ECP patients.
