The goal of this observational study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy combined with PD-1 blockers for LAPC and LRPC. The patients, diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) or locally recurrent pancreatic cancer (LRPC). LRPC or LAPC, undergoing SABT and PD-1 blockers in our hospital from December 2020 to April 2023 were reviewed consecutively. All patients provided written informed consent before treatment. The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, and it was approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee of Peking University Third Hospital.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of gemcitabine hydrochloride in treating patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
Patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma not eligible for infusional fluorouracil, irinotecan and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) (PPS 2 or hyperbilirubinemia, among other causes) will be treated with mFLOX regimen (fluorouracil bolus and oxaliplatin). The primary endpoint is to assess the objective response rate according to RECIST criteria (version 1.1) and the secondary endpoints are time until clinical or radiological progression, overall survival, toxicity profile.
Immunotherapy has become the major breakthrough and the most promising treatment, with the host of development of tumor biology, molecular biology and immunology. It has become the fourth tumor treatment model after traditional tumor therapies (surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy) . Mesothelin, PSCA, CEA, HER2, MUC1 and EGFRvIII are potential targets and spectacular paradigm in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer. This study is for evaluation of the safety and efficacy of Mesothelin, PSCA, CEA, HER2, MUC1, EGFRvIII targeted and other CAR-T cell immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine alone or when given together with other anti-cancer therapies. This study also aims to find the best dose.
This study is seeking participants who have solid tumors (a mass of abnormal cells that forms a lump or growth in the body) that:
* are advanced (cancer that doesn't disappear or stay away with treatment) and
* have a KRAS gene mutation (a change in the DNA of the KRAS gene that can cause cells to grow in very high numbers).
This includes (but limited to) the following cancer types:
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): It's a type of lung cancer where the cells grow slowly but often spread to other parts of the body.
Colorectal Cancer (CRC): This is a disease where cells in the colon (a part of large intestine) or rectum grow out of control.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC): This is a cancer that starts in the ducts of the pancreas but can spread quickly to other parts of the body. Pancreas is a long, flat gland that lies in the abdomen behind the stomach. Pancreas creates enzymes that help with digestion. It also makes hormones that can help control your blood sugar levels.
All participants in this study will take the study medication (PF-07934040) as pill by mouth twice a day repeating for 21-day or 28-day cycles.
Depending on which part of the study participants are enrolled into they will receive the study medication (PF-07934040 alone or in combination with other anti-cancer medications). These anti-cancer medications will be given in the study clinic by intravenous (IV) that is directly injected into the veins at various times (depending on the treatment) during the 21-day or 28-day cycle.
Participants can continue to take the study medication (PF-07934040) and the combination anti-cancer therapy until their cancer is no longer responding.
The study will look at the experiences of people receiving the study medicines. This will help see if the study medicines are safe and effective.
Participants will be involved in this study for up to 4 years. During this time, they will come into the clinic between 1 to 4 times in each 21-day or 28-day cycle. After they have stopped taking the study medication (at about at 2 years) they will be followed for another two years to see how they are doing.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel venous injection plus transcatheter arterial infusion to Patients with Advanced Pancreatic Cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the impact of bethanechol therapy on tumor activity by looking at biomarkers of proliferation, inflammation, and stem cell markers in post-treatment specimens compared to pre-treatment specimens and compared to other patients who were not treated with bethanechol prior to surgery. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with bethanechol will alter nerve conduction within tumors by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system and reduce tumor proliferation, reduce macrophage activation, reduce tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, and decrease human cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44) protein cancer stem cells.
The safety objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of short course bethanechol prior to surgery and the impact of this treatment on immediate surgical outcomes. The investigators will assess all treatment-related toxicities with an emphasis on GI side effects and evaluate the impact of therapy on surgical delays or immediate post-op complications. All subjects will be contacted 1 week after beginning therapy to assess toxicity including GI specific toxicity and followed for safety for 30 days following completion of study medication. The investigators hypothesize that treatment for a minimum of 1 week will be tolerable in this selected patient population and will not interfere with progression to surgery or lead to increased surgical complications.
Breathing movements, called chest wall motion, are very complex. The investigators are studying how movement of the abdomen, ribs and diaphragm contribute to breathing and how this differs with different diseases in the chest. Breathing movements may help with diagnosis, assessment of severity or assessing the impact of treatments for chest conditions. The investigators are following people who have a chest disease, measuring their chest wall motion and comparing it to their diagnosis and and how their treatment works.
Chest wall motion can be measured in different ways at rest and whilst exercising. Small stickers on the chest can be used to reflect infra red light or visible squares of light can be shone onto the chest without using stickers.
The aim of the study is to compare the effect of Roux-en Y reconstruction (study group, DPCDA) versus classical Child reconstruction (DPCUN) in the incidence of VGL in patients for DPC. The hypotesis of the study is that Roux-en Y reconstruction decreases incidence of DGE after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
The purpose of this multicenter and double-blind clinical trial is to prospectively assess the sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value, and accuracy in respectability of pancreatic head cancer with contrasted-enhanced MDCT and its various post processing techniques, taking operational and pathological records as the gold standard.
