Filter by:The main objective of this trial is to assess the efficacy of onvansertib in combination with nanoliposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI), leucovorin, and fluorouracil (5-FU) for treatment of participants with histologically confirmed metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
This clinical trial compares the effect of LMA Gastro, a dual channel supraglottic airway (SGA) device, to oxygenation with standard nasal cannula for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). An ERCP is a combination of imaging scans and endoscopy that helps doctors diagnose and treat conditions of the pancreas and bile ducts that requires general anesthesia or procedural sedation. Anesthesiologists often use SGAs or nasal cannulas to help patients breathe while they are asleep during procedures. An SGA consists of an airway tube that connects to a mask, which is inserted through the mouth and placed at the back of the throat to keep the airway open while patients are under anesthesia or sedation. The nasal cannula is a device that fits in a patient's nostrils and delivers oxygen through a small, flexible tube while they are under anesthesia or sedation. The goal of this trial is to compare the effects of the LMA Gastro to nasal cannula when used to deliver oxygen to patients while they are asleep during their ERCP procedure.
The purpose of this study is to clarify the diagnostic significance of AKR1B10 in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and to combine with CA19-9 to improve the diagnosis rate of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
This is a First-In-Human (FIH) study of [68Ga]-FF58 to characterize the imaging properties, safety, biodistribution and dosimetry properties of [68Ga]-FF58 in adults with relapsed or refractory (r/r) glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), breast cancer (BC) that has metastasized to the brain, gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA) or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) expected to overexpress alpha-v beta 3 (αvβ3) and alpha-v beta 5 (αvβ5) integrins.
The main objective of this trial is to explore the activity of chlorambucil, an alkylating agent commonly used in chronic lymphocytic leukemia treatment, in metastatic patients, gBRCA, including VUS, or DDR mutated, previously treated with a platinum-containing chemotherapy.
In present study, the investigators evaluate the safety and efficacy of OIS-derived NASOX regimen (nal-IRI, S-1, oxaliplatin) in advanced pancreatic cancer. NASOX regimen contains nal-IRI, which has recently been proven effective in pancreatic cancer.
This study will enroll a total of 16 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. All subjects will receive combination therapy of gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and L-glutamine. The study investigates what the appropriate dosage of L-glutamine is so that there is the lowest risk of side effects, and whether the supplement will make standard chemotherapy of gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel more effective in treating advanced pancreatic cancer.
111Indium-labelled IPN01087 (111In-IPN01087) is developed as a radioactive diagnostic imaging agent in patients with colorectal or pancreatic cancer. It is used with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for the identification of tumours that overexpress the neurotensin receptor-1 (NTSR1). The purpose of this study is to assess how well 111In-IPN01087 is tolerated and what the most suitable amount to be injected is to obtain good quality images. The study will also look at how 111In-IPN01087 is distributed throughout the body and what the optimal time for doing the scans will be after it has been given as a single intravenous injection.
The aim of this nationwide, observational cohort study is to evaluate current surveillance strategies after primary resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the Netherlands, with regard to the detection, treatment and survival of PDAC recurrence.
Pancreatic head malignancies are aggressive cancers that are often inoperable when they are diagnosed. In the ~20% of patients who are diagnosed when the disease is still operable, surgery is the only treatment that can provide a chance of cure. Unfortunately, up to 75% of patients undergoing surgery will have the cancer come back (recur). One of the reasons for this is the challenge of removing the whole tumour with some surrounding non-cancerous tissue to ensure that every tumour cell has been removed. This is difficult because there are many structures very close to the pancreas (such as the blood vessels that supply the intestines) that cannot be removed. A recent review study of >1700 patients who had a Whipple's operation (the cancer operation that is performed to remove the head of pancreas) and found that whilst the majority of patients had cancer recurrence in distant sites (like the liver) that would not be affected by how the operation was performed, 12% of patients had the cancer recur just at the site of where the operation had been; this is known as 'local' recurrence. This suggests that a small amount of cancer was not removed at the time of surgery in these patients. Very few studies have looked at the relationship between the Computerised Tomography (CT) scan before surgery and the histology results (information about the tumour after it has been examined under the microscope) and whether this can predict exactly where the tumour recurs. If investigators can find factors that predict which patients get local only recurrence, investigators may be able to offer improved surgical techniques or other therapies during or immediately after the operation to these patients, hopefully leading to improved cure rates. This retrospective international study will look at these factors in patients who underwent a Whipple's operation for pancreatic cancer, bile duct cancer or ampullary cancer over a three year period between 2012 and 2015. Participating centres will provide data on pre-operative scans, complications around the time of surgery, any therapies (e.g. chemotherapy) that the patients had and if and where the cancer recurred. With this information, investigators hope to find ways to predict which patients will get local-only recurrence, so researchers can select them for future studies to see if additional treatments can improve the chance of cure from surgery for these patients.
