Active clinical trials for "Pancreatic Neoplasms"

The aim of our study is to evaluate the utility of Secretin-Stimulated Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (S-MRCP) in detecting carcinoma and precancerous lesions in patients with a significant family history of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Our hypothesis is that S-MRCP is superior to traditional computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting early pancreatic neoplasms, and approaches the accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS).

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as positron emission tomography (PET) using [18F]-labeled substance P antagonist receptor quantifier, may be effective in finding disease in patients with pancreatic cancer. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying how well a PET scan using [18F]-labeled substance P antagonist receptor quantifier works in finding disease in patients with pancreatic cancer.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a highly sensitive and specific method in diagnosing solid pancreatic lesions. Rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of the aspirate by a cytopathologist improves specimen adequacy and diagnostic accuracy while reducing the number of needle passes. As this increases costs and implicates availability issues, the investigators aimed to evaluate the utility of ROSE by the endosonographer in guiding EUS-FNA of solid pancreatic lesions.

The main purpose of this study is to find the best dose of entinostat when given in combination with FOLFOX for pancreatic cancer.

Aim of the prospective study is a better differentiation of benign and malignant lesions in the pancreas in patients with suspected pancreatic cancer using images 30 and 90 min p.i. (post injectionen) and a diagnostic CT (computed tomography) scan of the abdomen within the Time of Flight (TOF)-18F-FDG-PET/CT and thus an improvement of the quality of PET/CT findings.

This is a Phase 1/2a, first-in-human, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of FL-301 in patients with advanced cancer.

This is a a single-arm, prospective study of Camrelizumab combined with ablation and chemotherapy for patients with Pancreatic cancer liver metastasis. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Camrelizumab combined with ablation and chemotherapy as a treatment of Pancreatic cancer liver metastasis.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether molecularly tailored therapy can improve the efficacy of treatment when compared to standard chemotherapy combinations for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer receiving their second line of therapy for metastatic disease.

Research Hypothesis: The combination of ionizing radiation and immunotherapy (durvalumab) is well tolerated and stimulates a clinically significant pancreas-cancer specific immune response. The primary objective will be to evaluate whether the combination of RT and durvalumab can improve median PFS compared to chemotherapy historical control data in metastatic pancreas cancer patients who have progressed through first-line chemotherapy. The primary intent of RT in this study is to augment a pancreatic cancer-specific immune response when given with durvalumab.

GAX represents a novel approach to the development of cancer chemotherapy agents in pancreatic cancer and is based upon extensive laboratory investigations for the induction of apoptosis in pancreatic carcinoma cells.
