NCT ID: NCT06068023 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Ampullary Adenocarcinoma

The ADAPTA Study: ADjuvant chemotherAPy After Curative Intent resecTion of Ampullary Cancer.

ADAPTA
Start date: July 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Ampullary adenocarcinoma (AAC) is a rare gastrointestinal cancer with varying survival rates, particularly the aggressive pancreatobiliary (PB) subtype. Adjuvant therapy benefits only PB and mixed subtype patients, while prospective studies are required for validation. A study proposes tailored adjuvant treatments (CAPOX for intestinal subtype, FOLFIRINOX for PB and mixed subtypes) based on histopathology to enhance survival, also exploring molecular sub-studies for deeper insights.

NCT ID: NCT05116072 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas

Efficacy and Safety of TPIAT for Resectable Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas Region at High Risk of Postoperative Fistula

TPIAT-01
Start date: February 20, 2022
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Curative management of locally resectable invasive adenocarcinomas located in the cephalic region of the pancreas (pancreas, duodenum and ampulla of Vater) requires a pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a major surgery that often leads to major complications including approximately 20% of relevant clinical postoperative pancreatic fistula. Postoperative complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy can lead to early discontinuation of the complete oncologic strategy, i.e., chemotherapy for malignancy is performed in only about a third of patients who experienced a grade C fistula. A total pancreatectomy rather than a pancreaticoduodenectomy is an alternative procedure that involves the complete and definitive resection of all pancreatic tissue, eliminating any risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula but is associated with unavoidable endocrine insufficiency and potentially severe metabolic complications, such as "brittle diabetes". Total Pancreatectomy following by intraportal Islet AutoTransplantation (TPIAT) can prevent "brittle diabetes" and improve the quality of life. The endocrine islets can be isolated from the pancreatic surgical specimen with standardized procedures and transplanted in the liver through intraportal infusion, in absence of immunosuppression and allow adequate control of glucose metabolism with a reduced need for exogenous insulin and an effective graft function in 70% of cases at 3 years Thereby, the investigators hypothesize that total pancreatectomy with intraportal Islet autotransplantation rather than classical pancreaticuduodenectomy, in patients with high-risk of postoperative fistula will increase the rate of complete access to adjuvant chemotherapy, while maintaining an adequate metabolic control.

NCT ID: NCT04400357 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Robotic Versus Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy for Pancreatic and Periampullary Tumors

PORTAL
Start date: June 15, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This multicenter randomized trial aims to primarily assess and compare the functional recovery of patients who undergo open versus robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy for benign and malignant lesions of the head of the pancreas.

NCT ID: NCT03800212 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Ampullary Adenocarcinoma

Survival and Description of Care for Patients With Degenerate Vaterian Ampulloma

AMPULLOMA
Start date: July 7, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A Vater's ampulloma is a rare digestive tumour which accounts for under 1% of all digestive tumours. The only curative treatment is complete excision (surgical or endoscopic) of the lesions which is possible in 80% of cases , with or without adjuvant treatment. The reference radical treatment is cephalic duodenopancreatectomy (CDP). The indication for adjuvant treatment is still debated: in view of the aggressive nature of the disease and the high recurrence rate, it would appear appropriate to offer adjuvant treatment, although several studies have failed to find any benefit on survival with post-operative radio-chemotherapy, the most widely studied treatment at present, compared to excision alone. At present there are no phase II studies specifically examining medical treatment of degenerated, inoperable Vater's ampullomas. Some groups propose chemotherapies with 5-FU or gemcitabine, analogous to the treatments used for intestinal, pancreatic or biliary tumours, although neither one has been shown to date to be superior to the other, nor have decision-making criteria been clearly established.In conclusion, a national cohort study is proposed to undertake a prospective analysis of the outcome of all patients treated for ampullary adenocarcinoma (particularly survival without recurrence and prognostic indicators for excised tumours and the duration of disease control for tumours treated with palliative chemotherapy). The treatment methods will be left to the free choice of the investigator and all patients may be included, regardless of stage of their disease. In this study, freezing of tumour fragments is encouraged, as this cohort will be supplemented by a later biological study. In order to recruit sufficient patient numbers, the study will be based on participation of the cooperative groups involved in the management of digestive cancers.
