Filter by:The aim of this study is the evaluation of psychological aspects, such as anxiety-depressive patterns, quality of life, personality and other psychopathological syndromes of patients who receive a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and who face chemotherapy treatment, radio-chemotherapy or surgery
Patients with advanced pancreas adenocarcinoma will be randomized on a 6:1 basis to receive standard of care chemotherapy followed by adaptive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with concurrent and adjuvant FAK inhibitor defactinib (experimental arm) or standard of care chemotherapy followed by SBRT (control arm). Patients enrolled to the experimental arm will be assessed for clinical outcomes such as progression free survival (PFS), local control, distant control, and toxicity. The first 6 patients randomized to the experimental arm will be considered the safety lead-in and will be assessed for dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). The 6 patients randomized to the control arm will be evaluated for correlatives but will not be included in the analysis for primary and secondary endpoints.
The purpose of this study is to establish the feasibility of delivering a prescribed, individualised supervised aerobic and resistance exercise programme during adjuvant therapy, to improve survival and reduce symptom burden in pancreatic cancer
This study is for verification of predictive biomarkers for pancreatic cancer treatment using multi-center liquid biopsy.
The aim of this study is to accomplish the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, in patients over 60 years of age with newly diagnosed diabetes. Only patients with type 2 diabetes are meant to be included. The early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer could be the way to enable efficient cure for the patients.
The study of extended total mesopancreas excision(eTME) for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma is a retrospective multicenter cohort, collecting medical records and follow-up data of patients who underwent radical resection with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma.
PaCaReg is a multicenter registry trial aiming in the assessement of clinical, epidemiological and biological profiles in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
This is an open-label single arm phase 2 study for patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have not received any prior systemic therapies.
This is a research study to evaluate how the genetic makeup of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can affect the response to FDA-approved chemotherapy treatment, FOLFIRINOX, given before surgery to remove the tumor. Certain types of PDAC tumors can be surgically resected (removed). However, not all types of PDACs are resectable, especially if they are close to important structures like blood vessels or intestines. These types of PDACs are treated with chemotherapy such as FOLFIRINOX. Research studies showed that chemotherapy after surgical resection of PDAC tumors reduced the risk of the cancer returning. Chemotherapy is used to treat PDAC that has not spread outside of the pancreas and is not resectable. FOLFIRINOX is a chemotherapy treatment that combines multiple chemotherapeutic agents, including oxaliplatin, leucovorin, irinotecan, and 5-FU. Patients receive these agents by intravenous infusion. Of these drugs, 5-FU requires you to return home with a chemotherapy pump that will deliver chemotherapy over 46 hours. This regimen has been studied in pancreatic cancer that has been removed with surgery as a method for preventing the cancer from returning. Studies showed FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy reduced the risk of cancer returning and increased patients survival. In this study, researchers want to know if FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy given before surgery will make the cancer easier to remove with surgery and increase the chances of the cancer staying away after surgery. Researchers have shown that pancreatic cancers are not all the same when you look at the DNA and RNA that is inside a pancreatic cancer cell. Depending on the expression of different genes in a cancer cell, some pancreatic cancers may respond differently to chemotherapy. In this study researchers want to know if FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy can change the genetic profile of the cancer. This will be studied by obtaining a biopsy of the cancer before the start of chemotherapy, and after 8 treatments of chemotherapy. They will also study cancer cells that will be collected from blood samples.
Relapses free survival will be evaluated as efficacy of carbon ions radiation therapy released before surgery.
