Active clinical trials for "Pancreatic Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, proton radiation combined with chemotherapy and surgery has on you and your pancreatic cancer. This study will look at the side effects from the treatment and the quality of your life in relation to pain. It will also look at how the tumor responds to the combination of treatment with radiation, chemotherapy and surgery.

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from gene-modified tumor cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill pancreatic cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving vaccine therapy together with cyclophosphamide may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether vaccine therapy is more effective with or without cyclophosphamide in treating patients with pancreatic cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying the side effects of vaccine therapy and to see how well it works when given with or without cyclophosphamide in treating patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy for stage I or stage II pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery.

The trial is conducted in order to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of BI 2536 in the treatment of unresectable advanced pancreatic cancer as first line or second line therapy. A secondary aim is to identify the most suitable dosage regimen for the further phase II and III clinical programme of BI 2536. To achieve this objective, two dosage regimens are compared in patients receiving first line therapy.

This is a phase Ⅱ Trial of Postoperative Adjuvant Gemcitabine and Cisplatin Chemotherapy Followed by Chemoradiation With Gemcitabine in Patients With Resected Pancreatic Cancer.

Open-label, uncontrolled, Phase I/II study to evaluate safety and efficacy of BAY86-9766 plus gemcitabine in locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Phase I: Dose escalation study investigating 20, 30 and 50 mg BAY86-9766 plus gemcitabine (1000mg/m2); determination of maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose. Phase II: Determination of response (RECIST 1.1; primary endpoint). Secondary endpoints: response duration, disease control rate, time to progression, progression-free survival, overall survival, safety and tolerability. Tumor assessments at Screening and than every 8 weeks.; Safety evaluations at Screening and weekly throughout the study; Safety follow-up visit 30 days after the last dose of study treatment; Survival follow up monthly for up to 8 month after LPFV.

Monoclonal antibodies can transport and deliver radioactive elements capable of releasing sufficient amounts of energy to destroy tumor cells. In this clinical trial, we will study alpha particle radio immunotherapy using lead-212 (²¹²Pb), an isotope with a short path length targeted to malignant cells by the trastuzumab antibody, as a potential treatment for metastatic diseases. This Phase I trial is designed to determine the toxicity profile of ²¹²Pb-TCMC-Trastuzumab, its dose-limiting toxicities, and its anti-tumor effects in patients with HER-2 positive intraperitoneal cancers.

This clinical trial is being conducted to determine tumor response and preliminary safety of a monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to a cell surface receptor (α5β1 integrin) that is required for the establishment of new blood vessels during tumor growth, a process known as angiogenesis.

To determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicity of Gemcitabine plus Albumin-bound paclitaxel (ABI-007) in patients with advanced metastatic pancreatic cancer.

This study with pemetrexed is for patients with metastatic or unresectable pancreatic cancer who progressed after first line chemotherapy with gemcitabine.
