This study is an exploratory study, and all the drugs involved are listed drugs. The dosage of mirabetron is selected according to the basis of previous research. The clinical recommend dose of this product is 50mg/day, and the dose used in this study is 100mg/day, which is larger than the clinical commonly used dose. The main adverse reactions of this product are urinary tract infection and rapid heartbeat. In the clinical study, we will focus on the urine routine and heart-related adverse events of the subjects, and deal with the adverse events in time.
Subjects were given mirabeeron 100mg/day orally once a day in the morning until disease progression. When there are related or possible related side effects of the study drug mirabeeron, and according to NCI-CTCAE V 5.0, when subjects have more than or equal to grade 3 related toxicity, the administration should be delayed until grade 2 or lower to baseline, and the dose will be reduced by 50%, and subsequent dose increase is not allowed. If the pre-dose criteria are not met within 28 days, the drug will be permanently discontinued.
Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) comprise of a heterogeneous group of entities that are benign, premalignant or malignant. With increased use of modern imaging techniques in recent years, incidentally discovered PCL have become much more common. However, imaging modalities for characterising PCL is a known clinical uncertainty since imaging is capable of detecting these lesions but may often not be able to distinguish malignant from benign lesions. Incorrect assessment of PCL can lead to fatal consequences because a malignant lesion may not be treated and a benign may be unnecessarily resected. The aim of this study was to assess the performance of endoscopic ultrasound with fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) in the diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions compared to cross-sectional imaging modalities (CT/MRI). Our hypothesis is that EUS-FNA has a higher accuracy for diagnosing PCLs compared with cross-sectional imaging.
Incidental pancreatic solid or cystic lesions are diagnosed with increased frequency due to the widespread use of abdominal cross-sectional imaging to investigate unrelated symptoms. Lesions such as neuroendocrine tumors (NET), mucinous cystadenomas and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) have the potential of malignant transformation. The standard treatment of solid or cystic pancreatic lesions with malignant potential has been surgical resection, with lesions in the pancreatic head requiring a Whipple resection whereas pancreatic tail lesions are treated with distal pancreatectomy. Both types of resection carry significant morbidity and mortality. The study would like to outline the feasibility, safety, adverse events and early results of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) – radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in pancreatic neoplasms.
The study is designed to confirm the current indication (below) of the CellSearch® Circulating Tumor Cell Kit in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients for use of the kit in China.
The CellSearch® Circulating Tumor Cell Kit is intended for the enumeration of circulating tumor cells (CTC) of epithelial origin (CD45-, EpCAM+, and cytokeratins 8, 18+, and/or 19+) in whole blood.
The presence of CTC in the peripheral blood, as detected by the CellSearch® Circulating Tumor Cell Kit, is associated with decreased progression free survival and decreased overall survival in patients treated for metastatic breast cancer. This test is to be used as an aid in the monitoring of patients with metastatic breast cancer. Serial testing for CTC should be used in conjunction with other clinical methods for monitoring metastatic breast cancer. Evaluation of CTC at any time during the course of disease allows assessment of patient prognosis and is predictive of progression free survival and overall survival.
This phase II study evaluates how well pemigatinib works for the treatment of adult patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and that have abnormal changes (alterations) in the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene. FGFR genes are genes that, when altered, can lead to and promote the growth of cancer in patients. Researchers want to test if using pemigatinib can block the function of these abnormal FGFR genes and prevent the tumor from growing and whether treatment can help improve overall quality of life.
This proposed project is designed to collect data and specimens from patients/subjects presenting to the University of Michigan with a disease affecting the pancreas (or specific control populations). This protocol is focused on collecting data, blood samples, and tissue on subjects with pancreatic diseases, including pancreatic cancer, pancreatic cysts, pancreatitis, diabetic controls, jaundice/biliary obstruction controls, and otherwise healthy controls.
We are collecting up to 50 mls of blood for research purposes only. Plasma, serum and buffy coat are collected and stored according to strict SOPs.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of BL-8040 in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda®) and BL-8040/ Pembrolizumab in combination with liposomal irinotecan (Onivyde®)/5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (5-FU/LV) in subjects with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Investigator determined the factor of surgery associated with the survival of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.
In the case of large tumors or tumors closely adjacent to organs at risk, ablative doses offered by stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) could not be delivered. Therefore, a technique that could provide high radiation doses to tumors without increasing of risks of severe adverse effects is required.
Our hypothesis is that a single dose of antibiotics at time of EUS-guided pancreatic cyst aspiration is equally effective to the usual regimen of 3 days of post-procedural antibiotics.
