Hepatic (hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)) and pancreatic (pancreatic adenocarcinoma (ADKP); pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (TNEP)) primary tumors are the most common malignant tumors of the hepato-bilio-pancreatic system and represent a major public health issue. At present, the management of these tumors is based on recommendations based on the existence of rudimentary prognostic and theranostics markers that do not sufficiently accurately reflect the heterogeneity of tumor biology. It therefore seems essential to identify new and more relevant markers in order to optimize the care of these patients in daily practice. Metabolic reprogramming is now recognized as an essential feature of cancer cells, allowing them to fuel and maintain their proliferation and tumor growth. Such metabolic reprogramming requires modification of several energy pathways, the most commonly recognized being the transition from energy metabolism based on oxidative phosphorylation to energy metabolism based on glycolysis, even under aerobic conditions (Warburg effect). In this context, the investigators hypothesized that the consumption of nutrients by the tumor cell differs significantly from that of the normal cell in order to support its increased energy needs, and that this important and specific metabolic reprogramming would be correlated with the histo-prognostic and theranostics factors of these tumors. Preliminary analyses on surgical resection parts conducted by the various partners in 2019 made it possible to characterize the metabolic signatures of a series of HCC and ADKP resected using the Metafora biosystems technology platform. These signatures reflect a metabolic program characteristic of these tumors, which reveal strong specificities. Similarly, a candidate signature correlating with the presence of vascular microscopic invasion has been identified in HCC, and the level of activation of glycolysis and glutaminolysis by certain ADKP cells also appears as a trait of interest vis-à-vis the aggressiveness of this cancer. Thus, the current project will aim to confirm the feasibility of identifying specific prognostic and theranostics metabolic signatures early, on biopsy samples and / or circulating blood cells.
Under the hypothesis that collagen-based hemostatic agents improve the suppression of leakage of hemostatic pancreatic fluid at the surgical site during surgery, thrombin-containing collagen-based hemostatic agents are applied in surgery in patients with pancreatectomy. The investigators intend to evaluate the effectiveness of collagen-based hemostatic agents containing thrombin through clinical evaluation of hemostatic effect and anti-leakage effect of pancreatic fluid. This clinical study is a study for comparative evaluation of hemostasis and anti-leakage effect of bile or pancreatic fluid when applied after pancreatic resection of a collagen-based hemostatic agent containing thrombin. It is prospective, single center, randomized, and non-inferiority test. Participants are patients who are diagnosed with pancreatic disease and other diseases, and plan to undergo pancreatectomy. Through the randomization, in the case of the intervention group, after the pancreatectomy, the Collastat (CollaStat®, Dalim Tissen. Co., Ltd., Korea) is applied to the cut surface, and in the case of the control group, Collaseal (CollaSeal®, Dalim Tissen. Co., Ltd., Korea) is applied. In this study, 30 participants were required for each intervention group and control group. After surgery, the participants is hospitalized for 7 days and undergoes follow-up observation. Pancreatic leakage is measured through the drainage tube before discharge and evaluated as biochemical leakage (BL), B, or C according to the definition of International Study Group for Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPS). The primary endpoint of this study was the prevention rate of leakage. The postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) was defined according to the definition of ISGPS. Secondary end point was assessed as the difference between groups of total number of collagen hemostatic agents used, hospital length of stay and number of patient who received RBC transfusion. Safety was assessed based on the incidence of adverse events occurred.
The Multi-OutcoMe EvaluatioN of radiation Therapy Using the Unity MR-Linac Study (MOMENTUM) is a multi-institutional, international registry facilitating evidenced based implementation of the Unity MR-Linac technology and further technical development of the MR-Linac system with the ultimate purpose to improve patients' survival, local, and regional tumor control and quality of life.
This clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and impact on prognosis of personalized neoantigen peptide-based vaccines, which are based on next-generation sequencing and major histocompatibility complex affinity prediction algorithm, in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The hypothesis of this study is that personalized neoantigen vaccines will be safe and can systemically elicit measurable neoantigen-specific immunologic responses in patients. Participants will receive complete macroscopic resection of primary tumor, standard adjuvant chemotherapy and subsequently personalized neoantigen vaccines.
For diagnosis of pancreatic tumors, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) are well established techniques in clinical practice. We hypothesize that a FNA needle with a side port could improve the diagnostic yield. The aim of this prospective randomized study is to determine whether there is a difference in diagnostic yield in patients with pancreatic masses for evaluation.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether perioperative immunonutrition has additional effects on cell-mediated immunity in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if fine needle aspiration or fine needle biopsy is more efficacious and cost-effective than the other while maintaining diagnostic accuracy in the setting of solid gastrointestinal lesions.
