Filter by:This study will evaluate light therapy used in combination with standard therapies for pancreatic and rectal cancer. Participants will receive chemotherapy, radiation, and surgical treatments identical to that they had not been involved in the study. The only alteration is that some participants will be exposed additionally to either blue or amber light using commercially available seasonal affective disorder (SAD) lights that are approved for human use. Participants will use the SAD light in their own homes throughout the course of their radiation and chemotherapy treatments. They will wear goggles that filter with the desired color of light. As a comparison, another group of participants will be exposed only to their usual lighting conditions. The assignment to blue light, amber light, or usual light groups will be random. In addition to the light exposure, participants will be asked to have 10 mL of blood drawn for research purposes at 4 time points. This blood will be analyzed for markers of inflammation and circadian clock activation. Participants also will be asked to complete surveys at 3 time points. These surveys will evaluate for effects changs in sleep, pain, and quality of life. Finally, participants will be asked to wear a small clip-on light sensor and a heart rate variability monitor for 7 days. These monitors will provide information on the level of light exposure and the participant's physiologic response to the light. For participants going on to surgery, we will obtain a small sample of the resected pancreas or rectal tumor for research analysis. The investigators will obtain this sample only after the necessarily analysis has been performed for their clinical care.
The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to learn about TNG348, a ubiquitin specific peptidase 1 (USP1) inhibitor, alone and in combination with olaparib in patients with BRCA 1/2 mutant or HRD+ solid tumors. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the recommended dose for Phase 2 of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the pharmacokinetics of TNG348 as a single agent and in combination therapy - to evaluate the initial antineoplastic activity as a single agent and in combination therapy Participants will receive study treatment until they experience an undesirable side effect, their disease progresses or until they withdraw consent.
This study is being done to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adding NIS793 to standard of care FOLFIRINOX treatment for pancreatic cancer. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are: - NIS793 - FOLFIRINOX (Folinic acid/Leucovorin, 5-Fluorouracil, Irinotecan, and Oxaliplatin) Other interventions may include: - Chemoradiation Therapy - Surgery
The trial investigates the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation in combination with checkpoint inhibition in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
This study includes participants with pancreatic cancer who are undergoing genetic testing at Invitae related to their diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Our goal in this study is two-fold. First, we would like to research whether any inherited changes in genes may be associated with pancreatic cancer. Second, we would like to learn more about patient experiences with genetic testing, such as patient understanding of the testing, health-related actions taken (or planned to take) as a result of testing, communication and action of family members based on test results, and psychological impact of testing. This research study involves allowing collection of tumor tissue (from a prior biopsy and/or surgery), a blood sample, and sending surveys to participants for their opinion on the impact of the genetic testing as well as clinicians for relevant baseline and medical history information.
This study is divided into three phases: single-dose exploration, combination dosage exploration and cohort expansion. The Single-dose exploration stage aims to evaluate the tolerability of TQB2858 injection in subjects with advanced pancreatic carcinoma. The Combination dosage exploration stage aims to evaluate the tolerance of TQB2858 injection combined with chemotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. The cohort expansion phase aims to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of TQB2858 injection combined with gemcitabine, albumin paclitaxel, and with or without anlotinib in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer，and to explore treatment-related biomarkers.
Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains a dreadful disease due to its often advanced stage at diagnosis and poor sensitivity to chemotherapy. Progression after 1. line chemotherapy is inevitable in patients with advanced PC, and treatment options for patients who progress after 1. line chemotherapy are limited. Considering the emerging role of the tumor microenvironment, the combination of checkpoint blocking antibodies with immunomodulation of the tumor microenvironment could lead to better responses in tumor historically resistant to radiation and checkpoint blocking antibody approaches as single modalities. Influenza vaccination in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors resulted in a better survival, irrespective of the anticancer treatment outcome. Influenza vaccine facilitates both T- and B cell activation and drives interferon-gamma response, supporting the rationale for combining of influenza vaccine with immune checkpoint inhibition and radiation (NCT02866383). Based on these considerations, the proposed treatment with SBRT of 15 Gy in combination with nivolumab, ipilimumab and influenza vaccine may have the potential to provide meaningful clinical benefit by generating durable clinical responses, thereby improving quality of life (QoL) and potentially extending survival.
Phase 2, multicenter, single-arm, open-label basket study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of milademetan in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors refractory or intolerant to standard-of-care therapy that exhibit wild-type (WT) TP53 and MDM2 copy number (CN) ≥ 8 using prespecified biomarker criteria.
The Investigator proposes the development of an extended reality (xR) training platform for patients undergoing radiation treatment for pancreatic cancer. The Investigator wants to investigate the ability of this technology to provide biophysical feedback and coaching during the planning and treatment sessions to help patients with the ABC technique to improve motion management outcomes and reduce treatment related anxiety.
GTI-4711-201 is designed as a Phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to determine the effect to OS by adding GC4711 to SBRT following chemotherapy in patients with unresectable or borderline resectable nonmetastatic
