Filter by:The purpose of this research is to determine the benefit of pemigatinib in patients with advanced metastatic or surgically unresectable adenosquamous carcinoma of the pancreas who have progressed on previous therapy.
This study is being done to test the safety and effectiveness of combining Adavosertib and Gemcitabine in patients with pancreatic cancer. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Adavosertib - Gemcitabine
EUS-FNB samples will be used for organoid cultures, which will be co-cultured with cancer associated fibroblasts derived from the surrounding stroma of the lesion. The organoid cultures will be used for pharmacotyping using relevant chemotherapeutic agents used in the clinic, and the organoid's response compared with the patient's response.
This project aims at evaluating the different subtypes of pancreatic cancer on EUS-tissue acquisition of pancreatic cancer patients, and their possible modifications throughout time. The study takes advantage of a systematic evaluation of pancreatic cancers through diagnostic EUS-guided fine needle biopsy (FNB) sampling of the mass performed during a restaging EUS. FNB samples represent a valuable source of cancer cells, both for the histological diagnosis and as the source of tumor macromolecules, including DNA and RNA. Study design This is a prospective study enrolling patients with non-metastatic pancreatic cancer who already underwent diagnostic EUS with tissue acquisition and rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) by cytologist positive for pancreatic cancer, with a first sample acquired for diagnostic purposes and a second sample stored for RNA extraction acquired with the already approved protocol BIOGASTRO. As recommended by guidelines, patients will follow the standard pathway of treatment, being sent to chemotherapy and will then undergo restaging of the lesion and re-evaluation of vascular invasion by CT and EUS. During this second session of EUS a new specimen of the tumor will be sampled for diagnostic purposes, with a second pass undergoing for RNA extraction.
This study is divided into three phases: single-dose exploration, combination dosage exploration and cohort expansion. The Single-dose exploration stage aims to evaluate the tolerability of TQB2858 injection in subjects with advanced pancreatic carcinoma. The Combination dosage exploration stage aims to evaluate the tolerance of TQB2858 injection combined with chemotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. The cohort expansion phase aims to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of TQB2858 injection combined with gemcitabine, albumin paclitaxel, and with or without anlotinib in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer,and to explore treatment-related biomarkers.
The great harm of pancreatic diseases and the unknown etiology and pathogenesis make it difficult to intervene in most early cases in time. Previous studies by scholars and applicants at home and abroad have shown that the microflora in pancreatic tissue is closely related to chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. However, the research on the mechanism of microbial diversity in pancreatic tissue and the occurrence and development of various pancreatic diseases has not been reported. Based on the previous research, this subject continues to take various pancreatic diseases as the research object based on the database of pancreatic center and pathology department of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Shanghai Jiaotong University, To explore the characteristics of microbial flora in pancreas in different pancreatic diseases and its mechanism of influence on disease microenvironment. Select specific microbial flora or targets in the pancreas for various pancreatic diseases, so as to provide new theoretical basis and practical guidance for the early diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic diseases.
Few decades back pancreatico-duodenectomy (PD) was associated with a very high morbidity and mortality. With recent advancements in surgical and anesthetic techniques and improvement in peri-operative care, PD has evolved into a procedure with acceptable morbidity and mortality. Today PD is associated with a mortality of less than 5%, in high volume tertiary care centers. The multimodal concept of fast-track surgery was first introduced in colonic surgery. Several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of this program in colonic resection. Recently, fast-track surgery has been attempted in pancreatic surgery with encouraging results, but such data are sparse. The core aims of ERAS protocols are to safely hasten postoperative recovery and ease the stress response. Specifically, in the context of pancreatico-duodenectomy, such interventions have been shown to be safe with no increase in mortality or unplanned readmissions, delayed gastric emptying (DGE), or pancreatic fistula . Purported benefits include reduced admission related costs, incidence of DGE, overall morbidity and length of stay. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of implementing fast track rehabilitation protocol following pancreaticoduodenectomy and to see if it is associated with improved recovery, reduced morbidity and reduced length of hospital stay.
This is an interventional, single-arm, open-label study with high dose short course radiotherapy for patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
This is a feasibility study in which patients with pancreatic cancer are treated with intratumoral holmium microsphere injections.
Bluestar Genomics has developed a non-invasive test that aids in detection of occult pancreatic cancer in patients with new onset type II diabetes (NOD) who are 50 years old or older. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Bluestar Genomics early-detection pancreatic cancer test in a clinical setting. The study is prospective, longitudinal and interventional; tests will be ordered and results returned to site-investigators. If the test returns a pancreatic cancer signal "detected" result the study participant will undergo MRI imaging to evaluate for the presence of pancreatic cancer. The study is planned to enroll 6,550 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic subjects according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.
