Filter by:This is an open-label trial in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. The trial will evaluate the safety, clinical activity, and pharmacokinetics of the study drug, namodenoson, in this group of patients.
The goal of this open-label randomized, multicenter, comparative phase II trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the immunotherapy, dostarlimab, as first-line treatment for deficient mismatch repair (dMMR)/microsatellite instability (MSI) non-resectable metastatic or locally advanced non-colorectal and non-endometrial cancers compared to the standard of care chemotherapy. Adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with histologically confirmed dMMR/MSI duodenum and small bowel adenocarcinoma, gastric and oeso-gastric junction (OGJ) adenocarcinoma with combined positive score (CPS)<5, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, ampulla of vater adenocarcinoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, carcinoma of unknown primary site, neuroendocrine carcinoma (Grade3) all primary, and soft tissue sarcoma (except Gastro-Intestinal Stromal Tumor) will be included in this study. They will be randomized and treated with either dostarlimab (experimental arm A), or chemotherapy (control arm B). Patients with documented disease progression following the first line chemotherapy (Arm B) may be eligible for crossover to be treated with dostarlimab, with the same schedule as arm A.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitor plus radiotherapy to patients with CA19-9-elevated Advanced Pancreatic Cancer who are not refractory to chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new treatment combining radiation therapy with PCX12 is safe and tolerable.
A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device for advanced pancreatic cancer
The purpose of this study is to test a double screening strategy for pancreatic cancer, based on a model developed using patient medical records. Investigators would also like to test whether adding specific blood tests, can further help identify people who have a higher risk of pancreatic cancer than the general population, and would benefit from imaging in order to detect cancer early.
Based on a central role of inflammation in pancreas cancer, the role of IL 1 in acute and chronic inflammation , the inhibitory effect of IL 1 alfa and beta by anakinra and preliminary experience with anakinra in combination with chemotherapy in metastasis (with FOLFIRINOX) and localized disease (with gemcitabine/abraxane/cisplatin), a phase 2 study with anakinra in combination with perioperative chemotherapy for patients with PDAC is being proposed.
The main purpose of - To observe the overall survival of patients with resectable pancreatic cancer with elevated serum CA125 with and without neoadjuvant chemotherapy A secondary purpose - To observe relapse-free survival in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer with elevated serum CA125 versus without neoadjuvant chemotherapy - To observe the resectable rate of patients with resectable pancreatic cancer with elevated serum CA125 with and without neoadjuvant chemotherapy - To observe the safety parameters of patients with resectable pancreatic cancer with or without neoadjuvant chemotherapy with elevated serum CA125
Little is known concerning the management of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in digestive cancers other than hepato-cellular carcinoma (HCC). The use of anticoagulant treatment (ACT), screening of oesophageal varices (OV) and oesogatric varices (OGV), and primary prophylaxis of OV (treatment with beta-blocker (BB) and / or OV ligation) if necessary are not clearly defined. The autopsy series by Ogren et al. (World J Gastroenterol. 2006) found an incidence of PVT in cancer patients of 1%, with 44% of digestive cancers other than HCC as a common etiology, mostly pancreatic adenocarcinoma (42%). We reported a retrospective French study that included 118 patients with digestive cancers other than HCC, including 50% locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma, with PVT complications. A total of 38% of patients had radiological signs of portal hypertension (PHT) and 51% had ACT. Only 1% of patients were screened for VO (n = 7). In addition, 19% (n = 22) presented gastrointestinal bleeding. Among the causes of death, 17% (n = 12) were due to gastrointestinal bleeding. Overall survival (OS) was statistically associated with a metastatic disease (HR = 2.83 [95% CI 1.47-5.43], p <0.01) and gastrointestinal bleeding (HR = 1.68 [95% CI 1.01-2.78], p = 0.04). Bleeding complications from PHT are not uncommon in patients with digestive cancer, especially in patients with pancreatic cancer with PVT; but above all they can be responsible for death. No data existed before our first study (Regnault et al. Dig Liv Dis 2018). However, these data must be validated in a prospective multicentric study with standardized follow-up. In order to obtain precise and homogeneous data, we have chosen to target pancreatic cancers as these tumors are the most common causes of PVT.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of new ablation catheter developed by MEDICAL TAEWOONG for the treatment of pancreatic neoplasm (pancreatic adenocarcinoma or neuroendocrine tumour). The ablation is performed using EUSRA needle and radio frequency waves under ultrasound imaging. The subject who will be recruited into this study are patients who are deemed as non-surgical candidates.
