Active clinical trials for "Pancreatic Neoplasms"

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether nitrocamptothecin is more effective than other chemotherapy for cancer of the pancreas. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of nitrocamptothecin with that of other chemotherapy in treating patients who have recurrent or refractory cancer of the pancreas.

No Standard therapy has been approved for third-line therapy of advanced pancreatic cancer. K001 is peptidoglycan prepared from the marine microorganism, with an anti-tumor activity. Previously, the phase I study of K001 has shown that K001 was safety and had some effectiveness for pancreatic patients. Now, we would like to lunch a randomized, blinded, parallel-controlled, multi-center phase II/III study to compare the best support care (BSC) plus K-001 versus BSC plus placebo for the third-line and later treatment of patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.

Subjects who previously took part in the FT500-101 study and received allogeneic NK cell immunotherapy will take part in this long term follow-up study. Subjects will automatically enroll into study FT-003 once they have withdrawn or complete the parent interventional study. The purpose of this study is to provide long-term safety and survival data for subjects who have participated in the parent study. No additional study drug will be given, but subjects can receive other therapies for their cancer while they are being followed for long term safety in this study.

The outcome of pancreatic cancer is extremely poor. NCCN guidelines recommend FOLFIRINOX or modified-FOLFIRINOX as the first-line chemotherapeutic regimen, but the response rate is unacceptably low. PD-1 blockade has been developed to a new class of cancer immunotherapy that could restore an adequate immunosurveillance against the neoplasm and enhance T-cell-mediated anticancer immune responses. Manganese has been confirmed to activate antigen-presenting cells and function as mucosal immunoadjuvants in pre-clinical studies. This one-arm, phase I/II study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Manganese primed combined therapy of anti-PD-1 antibody and chemotherapy.

A prospective, multicenter, self-control clinical trial aim to enroll 110 patients suffered from upper abdominal (liver, pancreas, stomach, etc.) cancers . Patients who have taken at least one opioid drug for pain for two weeks and still have a VAS pain scale greater than 6 will receive endovascular denervation (EDN). They will be followed up for 3 months. The VAS scales, quantity of analgesics as represented by morphine equivalent and quality of life scores will be compared before and after EDN. Safety parameters such as arterial deformation, embolism, infection, liver and kidney functions will also be monitored.

This trial will explore the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with apatinib mesylate and radiotherapy and chemotherapy (paclitaxel (albumin binding) combined with gemcitabine and cisplatin) in the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

The present study is intended to investigate the efficacy and safety of the patients with confirmed advanced pancreatic cancer after treating with the combination of paclitaxel liposome plus S-1.

The aim of this study is to investigate if the systematic implementation of pre-emptive geno- and phenotyping, and therefore a dose reduction based on the French guidelines and the literature during the first month of treatment, reduces grade 3 or greater toxicity in patients treated with 5-FU (5-fluorouracil) or capecitabine. Therefore, a monocentric, partial prospective and partial retrospective trail was designed.

A randomized multi-center phase II trial of nab-paclitaxel in combination with gemcitabine verus S1 with gemcitabine as first-Line treatment for locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer

When gemcitabine based chemo and fluorouracil based chemo regimes are failed in late-stage or recurrent pancreatic cancer patients, there is no alternative options. Anti-PD-1 antibody has became a promising anti-cancer drug. While it showed limited efficacy in pancreatic cancer. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy has been a new method to locally treat metastatic cancer. This study is aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of SBRT and anti-PD-1 antibody in late-stage or recurrent pancreatic caner who failed in second-line chemotherapy.
