Who might be able to join this trial:
- People who are scheduled to have a planned (non-emergency) surgical procedure called a pancreatoduodenectomy (a major operation involving the pancreas and nearby organs), and who have a higher chance of having bacteria in their bile — either because they had a tube placed before surgery to drain their bile, or because they have a type of tumour near the bile duct opening.
- People who are over 18 years of age.
Who may not be able to join:
- People who are pregnant.
- People who have an allergy or intolerance to the antibiotics being studied in this trial.
- People who are already planned to take antibiotics before surgery to treat an active infection, such as an infection in the bile duct or liver.
- People whose kidneys are not working well enough, based on a specific blood test result measured before surgery (confirm with trial site for exact threshold).
