Filter by:This is a phase I trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose of carbon ion radiotherapy for the treatment of locally advanced, unresectable, pancreatic cancer.
The purpose of the phase I/II clinical study is to determine the best dose of fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy (SBRT) given either with Avasopasem manganese (GC4419) or placebo to patients who have been diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
Chemotherapy regimens for pancreatic cancer can now stabilize a patient's cancer and/or place some patients in remission or partial remission. The challenge now is to find options for maintenance therapies that will improve survival and allow continued benefits with minimal toxicities and inconvenience to the patients. This study will determine the effects of one possible maintenance regimen. The study is being conducted to determine the effects that pembrolizumab with or without the addition of paricalcitol may have on pancreatic cancer. Half of the patients will be randomized to receive pembrolizumab + paricalcitol and half to receive pembrolizumab + placebo.
This study evaluates the effect of percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (PENS) and transcutaneous nerve stimulation (TENS) for pain relieving in patients with pancreatic cancer. Patients will randomly allocated into PENS group, Tens group and control group.
This is a Phase 1, single-dose, open-label, dose-escalation study. The study will be conducted in three parts (i.e. regimens) in an outpatient setting as follows: - Regimen A: FATE-NK100 as a monotherapy in subjects with advanced solid tumor malignancies. - Regimen B: FATE-NK100 in combination with trastuzumab in subjects with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2+) advanced breast cancer, HER2+ advanced gastric cancer or other advanced HER2+ solid tumors. - Regimen C: FATE-NK100 in combination with cetuximab in subjects with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) or head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC), or other epidermal growth factor receptor 1 positive (EGFR1+) advanced solid tumors.
To identify the maximally tolerated dose of ficlatuzumab when combined with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in patients with previously untreated pancreatic cancer.
This is a prospective population based study to examine the relationship of oral and pancreatic microbiome, and their functions, to pancreatic cancer risk. The identification of specific oral bacteria and their functional relationship to pancreatic cancer will advance scientific knowledge on the etiology of pancreatic cancer. This could provide a new microbially-based research paradigm, possibly leading to new drug targets for this disease. Second, the oral bacteria may serve as a readily accessible, non-invasive biomarker for subsequent pancreatic cancer risk, which help to identify people at high risk of this disease. Finally, the identified oral bacteria may lead to microbial prophylactic preventions, with antibiotic therapy aimed at eradicating the specific species associated with increased cancer risk or, alternatively, combined with probiotics to introduce species that are associated with a decreased cancer risk. Thus, the study outcomes will lead to actionable means for pancreatic cancer prevention.
This multicentric prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) compares the Leeds Pathology Protocol (LEEPP) with other "conventional" pathological protocol of PD specimen for periampullary cancer. Our aims were to evaluate the impact of the protocol and of the clearance on R1 rate and its prognostic value.
The proposed study is an open-label, two-arm study of entinostat plus nivolumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
This study is being conducted to examine the safety of the investigational drug, Xilonix(™), in addition to standard doses of Onivyde® (nanoliposomal irinotecan) and 5- fluorouracil (5FU)/folinic acid (leucovorin) for pancreatic cancer patients with cachexia. Cachexia is a syndrome that includes involuntary weight loss and physical deterioration that can contribute to poor outcomes of cancer treatment. In other studies, Xilonix has increased lean body mass in advanced cancer patients. This increase could lead to improved weight maintenance and quality of life.
