Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this double-blind clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of octreotide versus placebo in laparoscopic hepatectomy surgery in patients diagnosed with resectable hepatocarcinoma or liver metastases.

The main questions it aims to answer are:
  • Decrease in intraoperative bleeding measured in ml of blood lost.

  • Decrease in the need for blood transfusion and use of intraoperative vasoactive drugs.

Participants will receive octreotide or placebo after signing the informed consent form.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

The drug will be administered during surgery, after anesthetic induction, and will be withdrawn at the end of surgery before leaving the operating room.

The patient will not receive any visit or require the performance of any other additional tests that are performed in the usual clinical practice. The monthly follow-up will coincide with the medical check-up and control analytical data will be taken. Subsequently, an attempt will be made to contact with the patient 3 months after surgery.

The duration of participation of each participant in the trial will therefore be about 3 months after surgery.

The intervention group will receive a loading dose of octreotide (100 mcgr) diluted in 100 ml of SSF to be given in half an hour and after that a continuous perfusion of 25 mcgr/h will be started until the end of the surgery.

The pharmaceutical form to be used is Sandostatin.

The control group will receive SSF as a placebo in the same sequence, first a loading dose in half an hour and then a continuous infusion of 25 mcgr/h until the end of surgery.

and then a continuous infusion until the end of the surgery.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Treatment arm (octreotide)

This patient will receive the treatment: Octreotide charge 100 mcgr + continuous infusion during the surgery 25 mcgr/h

Drug: Octreotide
A loading dose of 100 mcgr of octreotide will be administered in the intervention group, diluted in 100 ml of SSF to be passed in 30 minutes. Subsequently, it will be administered in continuous perfusion at 25 mcgr/h in the intervention group. The drug can be administered through a peripheral or central venous line at the choice of the anesthesiologist, since the drug has a density that allows its administration by both routes.
Other Names:
  • Placebo
  • Experimental: Placebo arm (saline solution)

    This patient will receive physiologic saline solution at the same infusion

    Other: Placebo
    In the case of the control group, 100 ml of SSF will be administered to be passed in half an hour and then an perfusion of SSF.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Incidence on intraoperative bleeding. [During the time the surgery lasts.]

      Decrease in intraoperative bleeding measured in ml of blood lost during laparoscopic liver resection surgery via laparoscopy.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Rate of intraoperative hemodynamic stability. [During the time the surgery lasts.]

      Intraoperative hemodynamic stability through haemodynamics variables.

    2. Incidence of intraoperative transfusion. [During the time the surgery lasts.]

      Decrease in transfusion during surgery due to bleeding versus placebo

    3. Number of patients with vasoactive use. [During the time the surgery lasts.]

      Decrease in use of vasoactive drugs due to hemodynamic instability versus placebo

    4. Incidence on the improvement of hepatic function [Up to 90 days]

      Observe the effects on postoperative liver function, reduction of liver enzymes.

    5. Rate of postoperative complications [Up to 90 days]

      Observe the effects on postoperative complications versus placebo
