This study aims to evaluate whether the incidence of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) can be reduced by proximal Roux-en-y gastrojejunal anastomosis in comparison with the standard gastrojejunal anastomosis in pylorus-resecting pancreaticoduodenectomy (PrPD).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the toxicity and tolerance of carbon ion radiotherapy for recurrent pancreatic carcinoma post surgery
The purpose of this research is to investigate the activity and safety of the combination of gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel and sintilimab as neoadjuvant therapy in treating patients with resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic cancer.
The drugs involved in this study are:
* Sintilimab
* Nab-paclitaxel
* Gemcitabine
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of capecitabine combined with cisplatin in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors .
The purpose of this study is to assess the use of an exercise program in people with pancreatic cancer.
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.
PATAKESS is a monocentric non interventional cohort study (prospective (alive patients) and retrospective (dead patients with biological material from surgery and/or biopsies already collected)).
PATAKESS consists of clinical and biological analyses of exocrine pancreatic tumors. Data are derived from tumor samples taken for routine health care purposes in patients managed at Centre Léon Bérard (Lyon-France) since January 2010. The main objective is to determine correlation between biological and clinical characterizations of patients suffering from exocrine pancreatic tumor.
Gemcitabine plus nub-paclitaxel (GEMABR) regimen was recently presented at an international oncology meeting and represents a new standard regimen in the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer. Therefore, it was decided to consider the balance of safety and efficacy as a preoperative chemotherapy, the investigators use the NAC-GEMABR regimen includes only two cycles (three times weekly and one week rest) of GEMABR regimen.
The purpose of this study is to find out which doses of talimogene laherparepvec (T-Vec) can be given safely to participants with pancreatic cancer that is either too big to be taken out by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. The study will also see if T-Vec can cause tumor shrinkage or prevent its growth.
The primary objective is to determine the rate of dose limiting toxicity at tested doses of talimogene laherparepvec administered endoscopically to pancreatic tumors, and to identify a maximum tolerated dose (MTD).
Secondary exploratory efficacy endpoints include change in longest diameter in the injected lesion(s), overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 and modified immune-related response criteria (mirRC as defined in section 11), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at 6, 12, and 24 months.

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate temporal delay (days) between biliary drainage (EUS-CDS vs ERCP as first line therapy) and chemotherapy start in patients with borderline distal malignant biliary obstruction.
