Filter by:10 Patients with Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer, no further responsive to neoadjuvant treatments but with a Stage-III disease will be submitted to imILT (Immunostimulating Interstitial Laser Thermotherapy). Safety and feasibility of imILT on LAPC will be evaluated as primary objective. Secondary objectives will be QoL after imILT, study of the immune reaction after imILT, oncological analysis of patients suffering from LAPC submitted to imILT.
The investigators will prospectively collect patient and procedure-related data in an observational study in order to detect patient and procedure-related risk factors for poor outcome (i.e. technical failure of the procedure; procedure-related complications). Data will be prospectively reported using standard report forms and patients will be followed up to 30 days to detect late-onset complications.
Study Part 1: To assess the safety and tolerability, and to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BAX2398 in combination with 5-FU/calcium levofolinate in Japanese patients. Study Part 2: To compare the efficacy of BAX2398 in combination with 5-FU/calcium levofolinate versus 5-FU/calcium levofolinate as assessed by Progression Free Survival (PFS) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1).
This is a single-centre, prospective, non-randomised research study. The research team will investigate the feasibility of assessing primary human pancreatic tissue for changes to T lymphocyte function and localisation in the presence and absence of AMD3100.
This open-label, single-arm, multicenter trial is designed to evaluate the safety of erlotinib in combination with standard of care chemotherapy (gemcitabine) in participants with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Current studies resulted in a superiority of a combination of nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine vs. gemcitabine mono therapy, but no data are available yet on the quality of life (QoL) under this combination therapy. In the framework of a German multicenter prospective, observational study ('QoliXane'), detailed QoL-data are now collected. QoL development under treatment will be analyzed and data will be compared to existing data of the gemcitabine mono therapy. QoL and course of therapy are collected using the EORTC C30 questionnaires once a month over a 6-month period. Additionally patients are requested to answer a supplementary questionnaire addressing e.g. fears related to QoL deterioration and side effects of chemotherapy. Primary endpoint is the proportion of patients with maintained Global Health Status/QoL at 3 months (10 points threshold). 600 patients shall be enrolled at about 90 study sites in Germany.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of Near-Infrared Technology can guide the laparoscopic resection of hypervascular neoplasms of the pancreas.
This pilot clinical trial studies the use of integrin alpha-v-beta [18F]-R01-MG-F2 Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) and Positron Emission Tomography-Magnetic Resonance Imaging in (PET/MRI) in measuring response in patients with pancreatic cancer and healthy volunteers. Integrins, such as integrin alpha-v-beta-6 (avb6), are a family of membrane receptors that are overexpressed on the cell surface of pancreatic cancers. [18F]-R01-MG-F2 targets avb6, which may improve early detection of and better stratify treatment options for patients with pancreatic cancer.
The rationale for this study is to investigate the benefits of epidural analgesia in pancreatic resections in a prospective, single blind, randomized control trial. This study will evaluate both short and long-term outcomes related to epidural analgesia, providing a longitudinal and comprehensive perspective to the advantages and disadvantages of this technique. The investigators hypothesize that the use of epidural analgesia reduces a patient's consumption of morphine or morphine-equivalent in the post-operative period following pancreatic resections.
This phase II trial studies how well olaparib works in treating patients with stage IV pancreatic cancer. Olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
