Filter by:Multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel group phase 2 study to assess the efficacy and tolerance of four combinations of CBP501, cisplatin, and nivolumab administered once every 21 days to patients with stage IV exocrine pancreatic cancer and WBC < 10,000/mm3 at screening.
Bile duct cancer and pancreatic cancer are cancers that cannot be surgically removed. As the cancer grows, it blocks the drainage of the bile ducts that carry digestive juices from the gallbladder and pancreas to the small intestine. ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) is often prescribed during which a tube with a tiny camera attached is inserted through the subject's mouth and advanced to a place in the small intestine where the bile duct empties. Through this scope the doctor enlarges the ducts with tiny balloons and places plastic or metal stents (straws) that help keep the bile ducts open so they can drain properly. However, due to the cancer, the stents are blocked eventually. The purpose of this registry is to record information and evaluate the impact of endoscopic radiofrequency ablation (RFA) probes in improving the management of bile duct cancer or pancreatic cancer by ablating the tissue in the bile duct(s) before the stent(s) are implanted. By using radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the tissue in the duct(s) prior to stent(s) insertion, the surrounding tissue becomes coagulated and this may delay tumor growth and the time before the stent lumen becomes blocked. Thereby, allowing increased periods between the need for intervention and further stent implantation(s). The registry will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RFA procedures conducted for pancreatico-biliary disorders
This prospective randomized controlled study is aimed to determine the advantages of thoracic epidural analgesia for open upper abdominal surgery in combination with multimodal analgesia compared with no thoracic epidural analgesia on postoperative pain control. The primary outcome is total opioid consumption in postoperative 72 hours. Secondary outcomes are the success of continuous epidural analgesia or complications of this technique, pain intensity, morbidity and mortality compare to no continuous epidural analgesia.
This clinical quality improvement study reviews and develops a clinical operations workflow to identify cancer patients who meet criteria for genetic counseling and testing. This study may improve utilization of genetic counseling and testing amongst community-based oncology providers caring for cancer patients in a rural and underserved area.
Pancreatic cancer is mainly seen among elderly subjects as more than 85 % of all patients are diagnosed after 60 years of age. Pancreatic surgery in the elderly is usually well tolerated, and the postoperative mortality has decreased and today is less than 5 % in high-volume centers. When offering an old patient pancreatic surgery for a malignant disease it is important to evaluate not only the probability that the patient may survive the operation, but also the relevance of an operation in relation to the patient's remnant life expectancy and other treatment options than surgery. This problem has not been addressed in most studies on pancreatic surgery in the elderly, in which the outcome after surgery was the end point. The endpoints of the present study are the post-operative survival and surgical complications after major pancreatic surgery in all patients operated in the study period, and the long-term survival of patients operated for adenocarcinomas. These endpoints were set from the assumption that the postoperative mortality is related to age and comorbidity, while the long-term survival is influenced by the primary disease.
This study will be conducted to support the registration of the lanreotide Autogel 120 mg formulation in China for the treatment of GEP-NETs and treatment of clinical symptoms of NETs. The study will include a screening period of up to 4 weeks followed by a 48-week intervention period. After completion of the main study period, approximately five participants will continue in a self/partner injection cohort with lanreotide Autogel 120 mg every 28 days for 24 weeks.
Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Disease is one of the most aggressive and deadliest forms of cancer with very poor survival. This study will evaluate adverse events and change in disease activity in participants 18 to 75 years of age with a body weight greater than or equal to 35 kg with Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Disease treated with Intravenous (IV) infusion of modified FOLFIRINOX (mFFX) combined with IV infusions of ABBV-927 with or without Budigalimab. ABBV-927 and Budigalimab are the investigational drugs being developed for treatment of Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Disease. In this study, doctors will enroll participants between 18 and 75 years of age with a body weight greater than or equal to 35 kg diagnosed diagnosed with Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Disease in 4 different groups, called treatment arms. Each group will receive different treatments. Approximately 129 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across approximately 27 sites worldwide. Participants will receive ABBV-927 and Budigalimab as Intravenous (IV) Infusion in Phase 1b and Phase 2 on day 3 of every 28 day cycle, modified FOLFIRINOX as IV Infusion in Phase 1b and Phase 2 on Day1 and Day 15 of every 28 day cycle up to maximum of 2 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
NRG1 gene fusions are extremely rare across solid tumours (estimate 0.3-0.5%). However, it is felt to be an actionable and potentially major growth pathway for those tumours that harbour this gene rearrangement. Tumours that harbour NRG1 fusions are driven by HER3 overactivation. Seribantumab is a mono-clonal antibody against HER3, it binds HER3 and inhibits NRG1-dependent activation and HER2 dimerization.
This is a prospective study addressing the challenge of predicting disease progression and/or recurrence in patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal, pancreatobiliary, or esophagogastric cancer that are receiving anti-cancer therapy.
In this study, the investigators designed a treatment regimen including the most active agents in pancreatic cancer which are gemcitabine and fluorouracil to be tested as a first line treatment. This regimen is expected to be less toxic than FOLFIRINOX and aiming at better outcomes.
