Started 2nd EUS-chemoablation expanded access protocol (EAP) with LSAM-PTX (Sub-micronized Paclitaxel) for BD-IPMNs.

Encouraging data from preceding (1st) EAP
N=6 BD-IPMNs
50-90% ⏬ volume
31-80% ⏬ surface area
Loss of pathogenic mutations-83%
Fibrosis & calcification-83%

[Somashekar Krishna, MD, MPH @som_krishna]

After 6 months of clearing all regulatory issues - excited to start our prospective study evaluating EUS-RFA in the management of BD-IPMNs.

The ERASE study (E⃣US-guided R⃣FA of PCLs - A⃣ S⃣afety & E⃣fficacy trial)

Pre-trial case (below) with a great response.

Happy Friday! Our first #IGCSPathPoll is: Endometrial tumor in a postmenopausal patient with thromboembolism...

[Somashekar Krishna, MD, MPH @som_krishna]

EUS-guided chemoablation with LSAM-PTX (NanoPac). Excellent resolution of a 4cm BD-IPMN.

Immediate & a year later - continued durable response.

Confident ablation > possible with a highly accurate diagnosis of cysts by EUS-endomicroscopy (nCLE) & fluid molecular analysis (NGS)
