Filter by:Gemcitabine plus S-1 (GS) prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) and greatly improved objective response rate (ORR) as well as disease control rate (DCR) of Asian patients with locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer (PC). However, limited data of GS regimen exist on the efficacy and safety in the treatment of Chinese patients with advanced PC. To assess the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine plus S-1 (GS regimen) as the first-line chemotherapy in Chinese patients with advanced PC, we designed this prospective study.
This is a Phase 1, multiple dose, ascending-dose escalation study and expansion study designed to define a maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended dose of XmAb22841 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab; to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and anti-tumor activity of XmAb22841 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with select advanced solid tumors.
FT500 is an off-the-shelf, iPSC-derived NK cell product that can bridge innate and adaptive immunity, and has the potential to overcome multiple mechanisms of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) resistance. The preclinical data provide compelling evidence supporting the clinical investigation of FT500 as monotherapy and in combination with ICI in participants with advanced solid tumors.
The primary objective is to explore the impact of early palliative care on quality of life in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. The secondary objectives are to explore the impact of early palliative care on symptom management, depression, anxiety and survival in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.
This study evaluates the possibility and the safety of performing local therapy for Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) using radiofrequency ablation of the tumor under ultrasonography (EUS) guidance.
The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic yield of intermittent versus continuous suction in the diagnosis of pancreatic solid lesions.
This study will investigate the tumor-associated vasculature of patients with solid tumors. The investigators will use a technology known as intravital microscopy (IVM) in order to visualize in real-time the vessels associated with solid tumors. The IVM observations may determine if an individual patient's tumor vessels would be amenable to receiving systemic therapy, based on the functionality of the vessels.
It will be investigated whether it is possible to predict the effect or lack of effect of first-line treatment by analysing cancer cells from the individual patient receiving standard first line treatment. Also, the feasibility of selecting second-line therapy based on pre-treatment biopsies will be investigated. Cells from pancreatic cancer will be grown in the laboratory to form small, circulating tumors and adjacent tissue, so called tumoroids. The tumoroids will then be exposed to different pre-specified anticancer drugs to hopefully reveal sensitivity or lack of sensitivity in the specific patient.
Diagnostic tools are needed to identify mucinous cysts for further evaluation or follow-up respectively to identify cysts with HGD or invasive cancer at an early stage for surgical resection. Molecular genetic analysis of pancreatic cyst fluid is a new but rapidly evolving method to identify KRAS/GNAS oncogenic driver mutations in mucinous cysts and to identify tumour suppressor gene mutations which are involved in advanced cysts with HGD or carcinoma. The ongoing ZYSTEUS-study tries to implement DNA mutation analysis by Next Generation Sequencing in the diagnostic algorithm of pancreas cyst evaluation. The first aim is to distinguish mucinous from non-mucinous cysts. The second aim is to define relevant tumour suppressor gene mutations which are relevant to distinguish between LGD and HGD/carcinoma in mucinous cysts.
This randomized study examines how well zinc works in improving quality of life in patients with gastrointestinal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery who are receiving chemotherapy. Zinc may help to improve patient's quality of life by preventing zinc deficiency.
