Filter by:This multicenter randomized trial aims to primarily assess and compare the functional recovery of patients who undergo open versus robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy for benign and malignant lesions of the head of the pancreas.
The purpose of the proposed study is to establish the safety of combining irinotecan chemotherapy with 5-FU, leucovorin/folinic acid, oxaliplatin, and docetaxel (abbreviated as the I-FLOAT study of gFOLFOXIRITAX) chemotherapies (leucovorin/folinic acid is a vitamin to make 5-FU work well).
The purpose of this research study to find out if the drug trametinib in combination with ruxolitinib is safe, tolerable and has beneficial effects in people who has certain type of cancers including the type that you have. Patients with RAS mutant colorectal cancer and pancreatic adenocarcinoma are invited to participate in this study. This is the first time that both trametinib and ruxolitinib are studied in combination. Trametinib is marketed in several countries with the brand name Mekinist® for the treatment of melanoma (a type of skin cancer). Trametinib has been studied extensively in cancer and has been tested in many patients. Ruxolitinib is an oral inhibitor of JAK1 and JAK2 tyrosine kinases and is approved for treatment of adult polycythemia vera and myelofibrosis. Ruxolitinib has been studied extensively in many patients.
The primary purpose of this protocol is to assess the ExAblate 2100 MR guided high intensity focused ultrasound device as an intervention for treatment of advanced stage pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
This is a research study in which bio-specimens (whole blood, plasma and serum from peripheral circulation and portal vein) will be collected from patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma for translational research. These samples will be used for (but not limited to) identification and characterisation of blood-borne biomarkers at the genomic and protein expression level. Examples of such biomarkers are circulating tumour cells (CTCs), CTC clusters and circulating DNA (which can be tumour derived, or from unaffected/normal cells). CTC-enriched blood samples may also be used to generate CTC-derived tumour explant (CDX) models in immunocompromised mice in order to produce suitable disease models in which to test novel therapies and identify new molecular targets. In addition, permission will be sought from study participants for the research team to access clinical information from medical notes to aid in determining the clinical relevance of biomarkers identified during the course of this study. Validated biomarkers are anticipated to be used in designing future biomarker-directed clinical trials in these disease groups.
This is an open label, single institution, dose-escalation phase 1 study designed to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of oxaliplatin administered via Pancreatic Retrograde Venous Infusion (PRVI) using Pressure Enabled Drug Delivery (PEDD) technology. Oxaliplatin PEDD-PRVI is administered with systemic FOLFIRI followed by FOLFIRINOX therapy for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
A multi-center, open-label phase I/II study to to determine the safety and tolerability of Azacitidine and/or Romidepsin in combination with nab-Paclitaxel/Gemcitabine in patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) (Part 1), followed by sequential immune targeting with programmed death-ligand (PD-L)1 blockade in combination with low-dose Lenalidomide (Part 2) in patients with controlled disease after 3 cycles (Part 1).
Use of the Biocartis Idylla ™ platform for the detection of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, B-RAF and K-RAS proto-oncogene mutations in liquid based cytology specimens and blood plasma samples from patients with non small cell lung carcinoma and pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC) incidence increases regularly in Western countries and it is expected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality in 2020. The prognosis of this disease remains very poor with an overall 5-year survival rate less than 5%. The FOLFIRINOX regimen (5-fluorouracil [5-FU], folinic acid, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin) and the combination of nab-paclitaxel with gemcitabine demonstrated to be more effective than gemcitabine alone, and are both validated as standard first-line treatment options for metastatic PAC. However, the use of FOLFIRINOX is limited to patients with ECOG performance status (PS) 0-1 and aged less than 75 years. Nab-paclitaxel is currently not reimbursed in France.
This is a phase 1, first in man, dose escalation study for safety and feasibility for administration of 3 doses of DC vaccine for pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
