Filter by:Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) associated with lymphadenectomy is the only curative option for patients affected by pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In 2014, the International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) defined the "standard lymphadenectomy", that is mandatory during PD for PDAC. Lymphadenectomy should include the removal of the hepatoduodenal ligament nodes (stations 5, 6, 12b1, 12b2, 12c according the classification of Japanese Pancreas Society), nodes along the hepatic artery (station 8a), the posterior surface of the pancreatic head (station 13a and 13b), the superior mesenteric artery (14a right lateral side, 14b right lateral side) and nodes of the anterior surface of the pancreatic head (stations 17a and 17b). The inclusion of para-aortic lymphnodes (PALN) (station 16) in standard lymphadenectomy is still matter of debate. Moreover, some retrospectives or prospective studies reported that the presence of PALN metastases has a significant negative prognostic impact. Until now, no randomized studies comparing PD associated with standard lymphadenectomy with or without removal of PALN have been published. The aim of this study is to evaluate if the removal of station 16 should be routinely included in standard lymphadenectomy during PD for PDAC.
The aim of this study is the characterization from epidemiological, radiomics and molecular point of view of lung metastasis of patients at beginning affected by pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which after the resection of primitive tumor have met with initial recurrence of the disease exclusively at the lung level.
The aim of this study is the evaluation of psychological aspects, such as anxiety-depressive patterns, quality of life, personality and other psychopathological syndromes of patients who receive a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and who face chemotherapy treatment, radio-chemotherapy or surgery
Patients with advanced pancreas adenocarcinoma will be randomized on a 6:1 basis to receive standard of care chemotherapy followed by adaptive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with concurrent and adjuvant FAK inhibitor defactinib (experimental arm) or standard of care chemotherapy followed by SBRT (control arm). Patients enrolled to the experimental arm will be assessed for clinical outcomes such as progression free survival (PFS), local control, distant control, and toxicity. The first 6 patients randomized to the experimental arm will be considered the safety lead-in and will be assessed for dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). The 6 patients randomized to the control arm will be evaluated for correlatives but will not be included in the analysis for primary and secondary endpoints.
The purpose of this study is to establish the feasibility of delivering a prescribed, individualised supervised aerobic and resistance exercise programme during adjuvant therapy, to improve survival and reduce symptom burden in pancreatic cancer
This study is for verification of predictive biomarkers for pancreatic cancer treatment using multi-center liquid biopsy.
The aim of this study is to accomplish the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, in patients over 60 years of age with newly diagnosed diabetes. Only patients with type 2 diabetes are meant to be included. The early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer could be the way to enable efficient cure for the patients.
The study of extended total mesopancreas excision(eTME) for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma is a retrospective multicenter cohort, collecting medical records and follow-up data of patients who underwent radical resection with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma.
PaCaReg is a multicenter registry trial aiming in the assessement of clinical, epidemiological and biological profiles in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
This is an open-label single arm phase 2 study for patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have not received any prior systemic therapies.
