Filter by:This proof of concept trial aims to assess whether the combination of IRE with Nivolumab is safe and effective to treat metastatic pancreatic cancer, based on the available preliminary evidence that IRE is able to cause a systemic anti-tumor immune response (i.e. abscopal effect), which may enhance the effect of subsequent Nivolumab treatment. In addition, the trial aims to clarify the systemic effects of IRE over time and thereby to provide more insight in the mechanism of work of the technique.
This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of L-DOS47 in combination with doxorubicin, as well as preliminary anti-tumor activity in patients with previously treated advanced pancreatic cancer.
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the deadliest diseases of human digestive malignancies. Despite the recent advances in surgery and chemotherapy, the 5-year survival rate of PC continues to be less than 10%. As a promising tumor therapy,Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T), however, performed poorly in PC treatment and need to be further updated. In our study, on the basis of our previous research, we use anti-MSLN CAR-T as effector cell and explore the different effects and mechanism of gut microbiota (PC or healthy control) on anti-MSLN CAR-T treatment. Firstly, we detect the differences of gut microbiota and T cell cholesterol metabolism in PC and healthy control by means of 16S-rRNA,PCR, western blot and ELISA; explore the different effects of gut microbiota on the subtype of T cells; and analyze the relationships between intestinal flora composition and T cell cholesterol metabolism or subtype changes by means of Spearman's correlation. Secondly, we also explore the different effects of gut microbiota on the proliferation, migration, subtype, inflammatory cytokines expression and anti-tumor effector function of anti-MSLN CAR-T cells by means of flow cytometry and cytotoxicity assay. Thirdly, we discuss the different expression of cholesterol esterification enzyme 1 (ACAT-1) and other core genes of cholesterol metabolism in anti-MSLN CAR-T. Lastly, we evaluate the effects of different gut microbiota on the treatment of PC by anti-MSLN CAR-T cells in NSG mouse model of subcutaneous PC transplantation and liver metastasis. Through the above experiments, a new theoretical basis is provided in which gut microbiota regulates the subtype and anti-tumor function of anti-MSLN CAR-T by ACAT-1 expression. Furthermore, our findings, which demonstrate the relationship of gut microbiota and CAR-T cell, may be translatable for the treatment of other solid tumors like PC.
Pancreatic cancer is increasing in incidence and will be the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in 2030 in the West. Only 10 to 15% of patients are eligible for curative resection with long-term survival rarely exceeding 20% at 5 years. The management of metastatic or recurrent diseases can not, unfortunately, be recommended to date because of limited data available (INCA 2019). However, recent, low-strength publications have reported encouraging results on the long-term survival of stage IV or recurrent patients. The aim of the present retrospective cohort study is to analyze results of surgery/destruction of metastatic synchronous or metachronous disease or local recurrence in patients with stage IV pancreatic cancer
Irradiation of non-operable pancreatic cancer with carbon ions (C12). This therapy is expected to be more effective than the current Gold Standard of photon irradiation applied in the case of non-operable pancreatic cancer.
This is a single center, open-label, phase I study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of MRx0518 with preoperative hypofractionated radiation in 15 patients with resectable pancreatic cancer. Subjects will take MRx0518 daily for one week prior to the start of radiation therapy, throughout radiation and until surgical resection of the tumour.
Study investigators will examine the absorption characteristics of apixaban, a direct-acting oral anticoagulation, in patients who have underwent a particular kind of surgery (pancreaticoduodenectomy) which involves resection of the duodenum.
This phase Ib/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of siltuximab and how well it works in combination with spartalizumab in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as siltuximab and spartalizumab, interfere with the ability of tumors cells to grow and spread.
No Standard therapy has been approved for third-line therapy of advanced pancreatic cancer. K001 is peptidoglycan prepared from the marine microorganism, with an anti-tumor activity. Previously, the phase I study of K001 has shown that K001 was safety and had some effectiveness for pancreatic patients. Now, we would like to lunch a randomized, blinded, parallel-controlled, multi-center phase II/III study to compare the best support care (BSC) plus K-001 versus BSC plus placebo for the third-line and later treatment of patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.
This is an open-label, single center, non-randomized, phase I trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of using the combination treatment of SHR-1210 with Paclitaxel-albumin and gemcitabine of metastatic PDAC.
