NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Discovery of Biomarkers and Biomarker Signatures to Facilitate Clinical Trials for Pain Therapeutics (UG3/UH3 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-NS-22-050
Summary:

Chronic pancreatitis is a painful condition often caused by long-term alcohol use, and patients often require treatment with strong pain medications, including opioids. Therefore, alternative treatments for chronic pancreatitis are needed. This project will use machine learning approaches to create a prediction tool based on electroencephalography analyses, sensory tests, and psychological questionnaires that can help determine which patients with chronic pancreatitis will benefit most from a specific type of treatment called endoscopic therapy.
