Filter by:This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial evaluates the effectiveness of palbociclib and binimetinib in treating patients with RAS-mutated cancers. Palbociclib and binimetinib are both in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of abnormal proteins that signals cancer cells to multiply. This trial may help researchers understand if giving the combination of palbociclib and binimetinib can help improve the amount of time before the cancer grows in patients with patients with low grade serous ovarian cancer who have certain changes in the tumor DNA. This trial may also help researchers understand if giving the combination of palbociclib and binimetinib can help improve outcomes among patients with low grade serous ovarian cancer who have previously received a MEK inhibitor. For patients with other tumors, with the exception of lung cancer, colon cancer, melanoma and low grade serous ovarian cancers, this trial may help researchers understand if giving the combination of palbociclib and binimetinib can improve the clinical outcome of survival without progression in patients who have certain changes in their tumor's DNA.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the fourth cause of cancer death in Western countries. More than 50% of the patients with PDAC has a local advanced or metastatic disease at the time of the diagnosis. There is a growing interest in the investigation of novel and alternative therapeutic strategies which could be used in synergy with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. These methods include echoendoscopic (EUS) guided locoregional ablation to reduce the tumoral mass. The most studied technique is the radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Another interesting technique involves the use of the laser source at a wavelength of 1064 nm. Among all the ablative methods, LA is the only one that allows the use of a thinner needle. These features make LA a suitable option for treating focal lesions in high-risk areas or in hard-to-reach locations. A previous study demonstrated the feasibility of this technique in pancreatic solid lesions. In order to perform a study aimed at the complete treatment of the lesion, it is necessary to identify the laser parameters which are specific to the size and location of the lesion. The present protocol presents a prospective interventional study aimed at the analysis and applicability of predictive mathematical models for the calculation of laser settings in the ablation of pancreatic lesion by means of a EUS-guided LA.
Pancreatic duodenectomy is one of the treatments offered to patients with neoplastic disease of the pancreas. In France, in 2018, 14,000 duodeno-pancreatectomies were performed, including 140 at the Hautepierre hospital at the Strasbourg University Hospital. Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a major surgery, causing significant postoperative pain that should be minimized through multimodal analgesia involving in particular locoregional anesthesia. Since 2019, the recommendations of the ERAS company concerning ERAS (Improved Rehabilitation After Surgery) after pancreaticoduodenectomy recommend the establishment of thoracic epidural analgesia in order to limit postoperative pain. When there is a contraindication to the placement of a thoracic epidural, in particular due to arterial and/or venous vascular reconstructions requiring potential perioperative curative anticoagulation, the administration of local anesthetic by pericatricial catheter is recommended. recommended. The Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block has proven analgesic efficacy, safety and harmlessness in colorectal surgery.
This study is being done to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adding NIS793 to standard of care FOLFIRINOX treatment for pancreatic cancer. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are: - NIS793 - FOLFIRINOX (Folinic acid/Leucovorin, 5-Fluorouracil, Irinotecan, and Oxaliplatin) Other interventions may include: - Chemoradiation Therapy - Surgery
This study aims to evaluate the EUS-RFA in terms of efficacy for pain management and improvement in quality-of-life parameters for patients with advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer. The primary objectives of this study are to 1) evaluate the utility of EUS-RFA for pain control and improvement in quality-of-life parameters for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer; 2) to measure the reduction of analgesic medications' requirements in patients affected by inoperable pancreatic cancer.
Rationale: Adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery significantly improved the survival of PC patients, but there is a problem that only about 50% of patients start adjuvant chemotherapy after pancreatectomy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy might control potential metastatic lesion which are not being detected in early diseases status and improve the R0 resection rate. In addition, it prevents futile surgery by selecting patients with rapid progression of disease. Furthermore, compared to chemotherapy administered after surgery, more patients can complete the planned chemotherapy schedule in neoadjuvant setting. Asians differ from Westerners not only in racial differences, but also in average size and body surface area. Accordingly, there is an urgent need for clinical studies on the dose, toxicity, dosing cycle, and efficacy of anticancer drugs that reflect actual clinical trials in Asian countries for Asians. There are still few studies worldwide that prospectively explored the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in resectable PC and the administration of neoadjuvant therapy in resectable PC depends on individual clinical judgment. Therefore, systematic and prospective clinical trials are essential to standardize treatment protocol in resectable PC. Obective: To investigate whether 6 cycles of preoperative mFOLFIRINOX - surgery - 6 cycles of postoperative mFOLFIRINOX improves overall survival by intention-to-treat compared to surgery followed by 12 cycles of postoperative mFOLFIRINOX. Study design: open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase 3 clinical trial Study population: Patients with resectable pancreatic cancer and ECOG performance 0 or 1. Intervention: Invervention arm : 6 cycles of neoadjuvant mFOLFIRINOX followed by surgical resection and 6 cycles of adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX Comparator arm : surgical resection followed by 12 cycles of adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX Primary endpoint: 2-year overall survival rate by intention-to-treat
The indications for synchronous liver resection for metastatic neuroendocrine tumors of pancreatic origin remain debated and poorly described in the literature. The reported mortality of this type of simultaneous resection remains very high, especially when a cephalic duodenopancreatectomy is associated with a hepatic resection (up to 40%). The benefit in terms of survival remains to be evaluated. The ReSiPaTNE study proposes to create a retrospective cohort of simultaneous pancreatic and hepatic resections for metastatic neuroendocrine tumors in order to evaluate the short and long term results of this type of resection. The evaluation of the results of this type of resection may be useful for the selection of patients for treatment.
To systematically collect and analyse real-world data on treatment patterns, clinical outcomes and toxicities among patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) undergoing systematic treatment in Austria
This trial will assess the MTD and RP2D of SOT102 administered as monotherapy (Part A) and in combination with first-line SoC treatment (nab-paclitaxel/ gemcitabine; Part B) and efficacy of SOT102 administered as monotherapy (Part C) and in combination with first-line SoC treatment (Part D) in patients with advanced or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
A prospective, nationwide, implementation program of the international standard of excellence for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) care in the Netherlands (2021[7]-2030[6]), including a multidisciplinary training program by the four leading international expert centers. The PREOPANC-4 project aims a safe and patient-centered implementation of the international standards of excellence for LAPC (surgery) in the Netherlands.
