Active clinical trials for "Pancreatic Neoplasms"

This study aims to further observe and evaluate whether the three-week administration of albumin-bound paclitaxel combined with gemcitabine is equivalent to the four-week administration in the treatment of inoperable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer

Gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel are one standard of care for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) but the progression free survival (PFS) of the regimen is only 5.5 months. Previous phase II study showed gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin had a PFS of 10.1 months in mPDAC. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel plus S-1/LV (GASL) against gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel plus oxaliplatin (GAP) in patients with mPDAC.

This is a Phase 1b/2, multi-center, open label umbrella study of patients ≥12 years of age with recurrent, progressive, or refractory melanoma or other solid tumors with alterations in the key proteins of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, referred to as the MAPK pathway.

To evaluate the efficacy of Tislelizumab combined with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine in the treatment of recurrent pancreatic cancer

The purpose of this study is to look at the efficacy and safety of HR070803 in combination with 5 fluorouracil/leucovorin (5FU/LV) plus oxaliplatin compared to nab-paclitaxel + gemcitabine treatment in improving the overall survival of patients not previously treated for metastatic pancreatic cancer.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the OATD-02 administration (orally) in monotherapy is safe and has the pharmacodynamic potential to restore and enhance tumour responses to immunotherapy through increased arginine levels or intrinsic anti-tumour activity in participants with advanced metastatic colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, renal cancer or pancreatic cancer.

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is an indispensable tool for tissue acquisition for pancreatic lesions. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) is once considered as the first line diagnostic method especially when rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) by cytopathologist is available. However, FNA alone has several limitations including inadequate acquisition of cells, and unable to provide core tissue for further histological analysis. Furthermore, ROSE is not available in many endoscopic centres due to limited resources. Endosonographers around the world, are discovering methods to overcome the limitations, including the use of new on-site evaluation technique by endoscopists, new fine-needle biopsy (FNB) needles, contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS-guided FNB. In this study, the investigators propose to compare the diagnostic performance between contrast-enhanced EUS-guided FNB versus conventional EUS-guided FNB technique with an aim to define the best EUS-guided tissue acquisition technique in the absence of ROSE. Results obtained from this research is expected to have significant impact in providing new insights on the best EUS-guided tissue acquisition method. It may replace FNA with ROSE as the gold standard for EUS-guided tissue acquisition in an affordable manner. It will also save the patients from unnecessary procedures and fasten the treatment pathways.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in the United States with limited treatment options, especially for those patients with metastatic disease. Combination treatment with cabozantinib and atezolizumab, has demonstrated safety for the treatment of other cancers and has shown promise in preclinical studies utilizing patient derived pancreas organoids. In this study, patients with refractory, metastatic pancreatic cancer will receive combination cabozantinib + atezolizumab and the efficacy of this treatment will be assessed through overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), median overall survival (mOS), and median progression free survival (mPFS). Safety and tolerability of combination cabozantinib plus atezolizumab in metastatic pancreatic cancer patients will also be assessed and immune profiling pre- and post-treatment will be explored.

The study is being conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of SHR-A1904 in patients with with advanced pancreatic cancer and to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of SHR-A1904

This study is a prospective phase II, single arm mono-institutional study conducted in Queen Mary Hospital (Hong Kong) assessing the efficacy and safety of TAS 102 in advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer patients.
