In acute pancreatitis, approximately 20% of the cases result in severe necrotizing pancreatitis which is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Necrotizing pancreatitis is characterized by the development of an acute necrotic collection and as this collection persists beyond 4 weeks, walled off necrosis (WON) encapsulates the collection. To date, this is treated by the step-up approach, which contains percutaneous drainage and minimally invasive video assisted retroperitoneal debridement (VARD) or endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided drainage followed by direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN). Different DEN techniques are available for the treatment of WON, however, there is a lack of effective endoscopic instruments to perform DEN. Recently, the first dedicated alternative to conventional DEN has been cleared for use, namely the EndoRotor® Resection System. This device is a powered mechanical debridement device intended for use in endoscopic procedures to resect and remove necrotic debris during DEN for WON. Previous (pilot and feasibility) studies showed promising results in terms of the amount of procedures, adverse events and length of hospital stay.
Therefore, aim of this study is to assess the performance of the EndoRotor, as compared to conventional endoscopic techniques, for direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN) of walled off necrosis (WON) in a randomized controlled trial.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interventional arm | Experimental | Subjects randomized to the control device arm will undergo treatment with the EndoRotor System, which is a powered debridement tool intended for use in endoscopic procedures to resect and remove necrotic debris during direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN) for walled-off necrosis. The system consists of capital components including a power console, roll stand, vacuum pump, and foot control; as well as disposable components including a single-use catheter, purge kit, and suction bag. The EndoRotor System has CE-Mark 613797 and is cleared for use by the FDA in the United States. |
|
| Control arm | Active Comparator | Subjects randomized to the control device arm will undergo conventional DEN as per the standard of care. Investigators will choose conventional DEN instruments according to their preference. |

i. Improved function of at least two organ systems (i.e. circulatory, pulmonary, renal) according to the Investigator's medical judgement within 72 hours, or; ii. At least 10% improvement of two out of three parameters of infection (i.e. C-reactive protein, leucocyte count or temperature) within 72 hours. | During a 6 month follow up period |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
