This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Nimotuzumab combined with GX for postoperative adjuvant treatment of pancreatic cancer.
This study aims to assess overall survival, quality of life and resection rates in locally advanced pancreatic cancer
A disposable negative wound pressure device will be compared to standard sterile wound dressing in reducing the rate of wound infection after clean-contaminated surgical procedures on biliary tract and pancreas in patients at high risk for wound infection.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of Fully Covered biliary SEMS to Uncovered biliary SEMS in biliary drainage for the pre-operative management of biliary obstructive symptoms caused by pancreatic cancer in patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy.
The primary objective of this study was to determine the progression free survival in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer and in patients with locally advanced unresectable non-metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with a dose-attenuated modification of folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX). Secondary endpoints included: determine objective response rate according to RECIST; determine overall survival; evaluate toxicity; determine rate of resection in locally advanced unresectable stratum; correlate time to progression, objective response, and overall survival with early changes in glucose metabolism using [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) scanning.
To collect and characterise the incidence of adverse events related to the safety specifications of the maintenance treatment after platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with BRCA mutated pancreatic cancer under the actual post-marketing use of LYNPAZA.
The FIBROPANC-1 investigates the feasibility and safety of preoperative stereotactic radiotherapy of 4cm pancreas in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy at high risk (>25%) of developing post operative pancreatic fistula (POPF). A single course of 12Gy preoperative radiotherapy may lead to sufficient fibrosis in a small (4cm) targeted area, thereby reducing the risk of grade B and C POPF.
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
This study includes participants with pancreatic cancer who are undergoing genetic testing at Invitae related to their diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
Our goal in this study is two-fold. First, we would like to research whether any inherited changes in genes may be associated with pancreatic cancer. Second, we would like to learn more about patient experiences with genetic testing, such as patient understanding of the testing, health-related actions taken (or planned to take) as a result of testing, communication and action of family members based on test results, and psychological impact of testing.
This research study involves allowing collection of tumor tissue (from a prior biopsy and/or surgery), a blood sample, and sending surveys to participants for their opinion on the impact of the genetic testing as well as clinicians for relevant baseline and medical history information.
The purpose of this study is to estimate safety of GVAX Pancreas Vaccine (GVAX) with immune modulating doses of cyclophosphamide (Cy) followed by SBRT and FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer patients after surgery.
