Filter by:The evidence on the value of aspirin, statins, metformin, beta-blocking ACE inhibitors agents as chemopreventive agents in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is limited. The aim of this study is to assess whether regular use of aspirin, statins, metformin, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitors and beta-blocking agents use, before diagnosis, after surgery and in neo-adjuvant treatment setting, can increase rate of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in participants with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The secondary aim is to evaluate if there is any difference in terms of "chemoprevention" between aspirin, statins, metformin and beta-blocking as chemopreventive agents, and if their prolonged daily use can positively influence the chemopreventive action. 400 patients with the following inclusion criteria will be enrolled in 3 years: 1. cytological or histological diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in any portion of the gland, with or without metastases in other sites 2. patient age between 18 and 90 years 3. any medicine or drug in the daily patient therapy 4. Patients undergone to primary chemoradiotherapy or surgical resection, followed by adjuvant therapy or preceded by neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, are included in the study Anamnestic, clinical and pathological data, included data on the aspirin, statins, metformin, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitors and beta-blocking agents assumption will be collected during the first visit with the surgeon. A database managed by a dedicated data manager will be created to collect and analyse data. Patients will be followed for at least 24 months The study will last overall 5 years.
This is an open-label, multi-centre, randomised, stratified, phase IIb clinical trial of ATRA administered in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in patients with laPDAC.
The purpose of this study is to compare the two approaches for monitoring pancreatic cysts. The study doctors want to compare more frequent monitoring vs less frequent monitoring in order to learn which monitoring method leads to better outcome for patients with pancreatic cysts.
A prospective, open, one-arm clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of jinyouli in the first-line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer with albumin paclitaxel combined with S-1.Chemotherapy regimen: (1) chemotherapy: albumin paclitaxel, 120mg / m2, intravenous infusion for 30 minutes, D1. S-1, taken orally after meal, D1 - 14. (2) patients who met the input / discharge criteria were given jinyouli injections 24 hours after the end of intravenous infusion of albumin paclitaxel during the treatment period.
Background: Centralization has improved the outcome of complex operations including cancer surgery. Moreover, the implementation of multidisciplinary team conferences (MDT) has ameliorated the decision making, but the impact on patient outcome is controversial. The aim of the study was to investigate the outcome of pancreatic surgery in the setting of centralization and upfront multidisciplinary decision making.
This phase II trial compares two treatment combinations: gemcitabine hydrochloride and nab-paclitaxel, or fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and liposomal irinotecan in older patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, nab-paclitaxel, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and liposomal irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This study may help doctors find out which treatment combination is better at prolonging life in older patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Precision Promise is a multi-center, seamless Phase 2/3 platform trial designed to evaluate multiple regimens in metastatic pancreatic cancer. Primary Objectives - To compare each investigational arm versus standard of care (SOC) for superiority in overall survival in first and/or second line metastatic ductal adenocarcinoma (metastatic pancreatic cancer) participants and determine which, if any, participants benefit from each investigational arm. Secondary Objectives - To determine short and long-term safety signals of each investigational arm in metastatic pancreatic cancer participants vs. SOC. - To determine progression-free survival (PFS) for each investigational arm vs. SOC. - To determine rates of overall response, CR, and PR; duration of overall response, CR or PR (whichever occurs first). - To determine rates of clinical benefit; duration of clinical benefit.
The study is being conducted to: a) evaluate the tolerability and safety of the co-administration of Fluzoparib and mFOLFIRINOX followed by Fluzoparib Maintenance Monotherapy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer, and establish the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose of the combination; and b) assess the efficacy of the co-administration of Fluzoparib and mFOLFIRINOX followed by Fluzoparib Maintenance Monotherapy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.
This prospective and open-label study evaluates the efficacy and safety of mFOLFIRINOX as postoperative chemotherapy in treating Chinese patients with pancreatic cancer after R0/R1 resection.
The present study is intended to investigate the efficacy and safety of the patients with confirmed advanced pancreatic cancer after treating with the combination of paclitaxel liposome plus S-1.
