Filter by:This is a clinical trial to compare two needles used in biopsy techniques to acquire tissue from pancreatic cancer. The hypothesis is that the tissue yield, as measured by tumor DNA and cellular material is superior for Flexible Needle Biopsy (FNB) compared with conventional Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA). Specifically, FNB will increase the proportion of cases in which sufficient DNA is obtained to allow genomic profiling and whole exome sequencing.
Patients with biliopancreatic tumors are at risk for malnutrition and have to undergo many procedures for diagnostic workup that require fasting periods. In a prospective randomized monocentric study we evaluate the effect of additional parenteral nutrition on weight loss, nutritional status, quality of life and length of hospital stay.
This phase 1 first-in-human study evaluates safety and tolerability of SBP-101 in subjects with previously treated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and will identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). In addition, this study will also assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and preliminary efficacy of SBP-101.
This is a Phase 2 multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study to examine the safety and effectiveness of BPM31510 administered over 144-hours (two 72-hour 110mg/Kg doses) continuous intravenous (IV) infusion in combination with gemcitabine in advanced pancreatic cancer patients as 2nd / 3rd line therapy. The study will enroll up to 25 patients in the US and Europe.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a preoperative exercise program in patients with pancreatic cancer preparing for surgery. Preoperative exercise programs have been shown to be effective in other cancer populations, but have not been investigated in patients with pancreatic cancer. The outcomes in this study will be changes in physical fitness, function, and postoperative outcomes. This investigation is a non-randomized control trial, with participants assigned to receive the preoperative exercise intervention in addition to standard care, or standard care alone if unable to commit to an exercise program for practical reasons. Possible mediators for the effects of exercise on postoperative outcomes will also be assessed, including psychological outcomes and markers of systemic inflammation. These measures will be assessed in all participants prior to program initiation, prior to surgery, and after surgery. Changes in these measures in response to exercise will be assessed, as well as the ability of the preoperative measures to predict postoperative outcomes.
This study will be looking at whether combining cyclophosphamide, pembrolizumab (an antibody that blocks negative signals to T cells), GVAX (pancreatic cancer vaccine), and SBRT (focused radiation) is effective (anti-tumor activity) and safe in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1b platform study in subjects with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (Part 1a) and subjects with selected solid tumors (Part 1b and Part 2). Two treatment groups (Group A and Group B) will be evaluated Part 1a utilizes a 3+3 design to evaluate pembrolizumab and INCB combinations in advanced solid tumors. Group A will evaluate a JAK inhibitor with JAK1 selectivity itacitinib (INCB039110) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) and Group B will evaluate a PI3K-delta inhibitor (INCB050465) in combination with pembrolizumab to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or PAD and recommend a dose for the Part 1b safety expansion with each combination. Once the recommended dose has been identified in Part 1a, subjects with select solid tumor types will be enrolled into safety expansion cohorts based upon prior treatment history with a PD-1 pathway-targeted agent (Part 1b) for each combination. Part 2 utilizes a Simon 2-Stage design to evaluate INCB050465 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and a 1 stage design to evaluate the combination in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and urothelial cancer (UC).
The main purpose of this study is to determine how best to combine hypofractionated radiotherapy, MEDI4736, and tremelimumab and to determine how safe and tolerable hypofractionated radiotherapy, MEDI4736, and tremelimumab are when given together in subjects with metastatic, melanoma, non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), breast cancer, and pancreatic cancer.
A prospective clinical study evaluating quality of life (QoL) in pancreatic cancer patients treated with intraoperative radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
This phase II study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Ferinject® in reducing perioperative transfusion in iron deficiency anemia patients anticipating pancreatoduodenectomy.
