This phase II trial investigates whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using hyperpolarized carbon-13 (13C) pyruvate can be useful for evaluating early treatment response in patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate is different from standard clinical MRI contrast (e.g. gadolinium) in that it provides information on how a tumor processes nutrients. MRI is used to see tumor uptake and breakdown of hyperpolarized carbon-13 pyruvate molecules, which can tell how the tumor processes nutrients. Hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate MRI may help in understanding how the tumor responds to the treatments patients may be receiving.
This study examines heart rate monitoring variability for the early detection of pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is a very difficult disease to detect early. This study is being done to observe the heart rate variability in patients with pancreatic cancer compared to undiagnosed individuals with increased risk of developing pancreatic cancer. This may help researchers determine if pancreatic occurrences/recurrences (chance of coming back) can be detected sooner through monitoring heart rate and activity.
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the combination of lonsurf, gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)
This trial will study SGN-CD228A to find out whether it is an effective treatment for different kinds of cancer. It will also look at what side effects (unwanted effects) may occur. The study will have two parts. Part 1 of the study will find out how much SGN-CD228A should be given for treatment and how often. Part 2 of the study will use the dose found in Part 1 and look at how safe and effective the treatment is.
Multi-center, open-label, first in human Phase 1 study of the safety, tolerability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of the administration of genetically modified autologous T cells (CART-TnMUC1 cells) engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) capable of recognizing the tumor antigen, TnMUC1 and activating the T cell (CART- TnMUC1 cells).
The purpose of this study is to determine if study treatment with atezolizumab and PEGPH20 given before and after surgery, followed by chemotherapy is safe and if it can further increase the immune response against the tumor rather than increase the chance of cure.
This is an open label, single center, single arm phase 1 study to evaluate the safety , tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy and immunogenicity of LCAR-C182A cells targeting Claudin18.2 in the treatment of patients with advanced gastric cancer and Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.
The Institute of Imaged-Guided Surgery (IHU Strasbourg) has two clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners, one with a 3T (3 Teslas) magnetic field used for diagnosis, the other with a magnetic field of 1,5T (1,5 Teslas) used for the interventional (Pre / per / postoperative). The reference for the visualization of the biliary and pancreatic ducts is a relatively long sequence that needs a breathing-synchronized acquisition leading to artefacts on the images (blur effect). In order to reduce and/or standardize the acquisition time as well as to limit artefacts, accelerated sequences are developed. Such sequence is available in France recently in the form of WIP Siemens (Work In Progress: sequence in test phase at manufacturer to be marketed in the short or medium term on clinical machines). It incorporates a Compressed Sensing (CS) acquisition scheme allowing the acquisition of a 3D (3 dimensions) sequence similar to the usual sequence by drastically reducing the acquisition time, the sequence CS-SPACE. This sequence exists in two forms: - An ultra-rapid sequence acquired in apnea - An accelerated sequence but remaining synchronized with the breath. The study carried out here on a large number of patients, with two different magnetic fields, applied routinely for diagnosis or anticipation of surgery, could be used by the community of radiologists, hepatogastroenterologists and also digestive surgeons Hepatobiliary.
This study was conducted to advance new treatment for patients with metastatic or locally advanced cancers expressing Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1). This study was the first time the investigational drug called 177Lu-3BP-227 was administered to patients under controlled conditions of a clinical study. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how safe the investigational drug is as well to verify how well it is tolerated by patients after several intravenous administrations. In addition, the effect of the study drug on tumoral lesions and how it distributes throughout the body and at which rate it is removed from the body was evaluated. Since 177Lu-3BP-227 is a radio-labelled drug, it also measured how the emitted radiation is distributed throughout the body (dosimetry). The study consisted of a phase I dose escalation part. The study originally planned to include a phase II study however due to early termination (not due to safety concerns) the study did not progress to phase II and was stopped during phase I. For the phase I dose escalation part, it was anticipated that approximately 30 subjects will be included, in up to six escalation steps. No expansion cohorts were implemented.
