Filter by:The purpose of this study is to find the best neoadjuvant therapy for pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of high-activity natural killer immunotherapy to small metastases of pancreatic cancer.
This study will enroll patients who have metastatic pancreatic cancer and have progressed on prior chemotherapy. Part 1 (dose escalation) participants will receive epacadostat/pembrolizumab/cyclophosphamide(CY)/GVAX pancreas vaccine followed by epacadostat/pembrolizumab/CRS-207, Part 1X (dose escalation) participants will receive epacadostat/pembrolizumab/CRS-207. Part 2X (dose expansion) participants will receive epacadostat/pembrolizumab/CRS-207. The primary objectives of this study are to determine the recommended dose of epacadostat in this combination and assess survival of subjects in both treatment groups.
To evaluate the safety of OncoSil™ in a patient population undergoing standard chemotherapy treatment for pancreatic cancer. This study has been designed to satisfy regulatory requirements. The clinical investigation will be conducted at approximately 15 sites in Australia, the United Kingdom and Europe (Belgium) involving 40 patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Cytokine induced killer cells combined chemotherapy is more effective in the treatment of advanced Pancreatic Cancer.
The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate and describe the immunologic and overall outcomes of subjects who undergo routine pancreatectomy with or without irreversible electroporation (IRE) for pancreatic cancer. Immunologic markers in the blood will be measured at several time points before and after surgery to determine if surgical approach is associated with different immunologic responses. Secondary outcomes will include mortality and morbidity; operative time; blood loss and transfusion requirements; and oncologic outcomes such as: margin status, lymph node harvest, disease-free survival, and overall survival. Analysis of immune response will help the investigator determine whether to expand the pilot into a larger study.
This is an observational, prospective and retrospective registry of patients with pancreatic cancer treated in Duke University Health System, which will examine patient and treatment effects on cancer outcomes.
This multicenter, non-randomized, Phase II study will assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of trastuzumab emtansine in participants with HER2 overexpressing locally advanced (unresectable and not treatable with curative intent) or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (UBC), locally advanced (unresectable and not treatable with curative intent) or metastatic pancreatic cancer/cholangiocarcinoma with advanced disease where cure is no longer possible and where no other treatment options are available anymore. Participants will receive intravenous (IV) infusion of trastuzumab emtansine as Regimen A (2.4 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg], weekly [qw]) or Regimen B (3.6 mg/kg, every 3 weeks [q3w]) until unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, disease progression (PD), or death, whichever occurs first. Based on tolerability and safety aspects, steering committee and Independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) will decide on expansion of the study to include more participants with other carcinoma types.
This study compares two types of care - Standard Oncology Care (SOC) and SOC with early palliative care (EPC) (started within 8 weeks after diagnosis of advanced disease) to see which is better for improving the quality of life of patients with advanced lung, pancreas, gastric and biliary tract cancer. The study will use FACT-G questionnaire to measure patients' quality of life.
Does pancreas enzyme replacement (PERT) decrease weight loss and improve quality of life in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer?
