This study is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, phase Ib/II clinical trial that treats previously untreated patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer using mFOLFIRINOX in combination with anlotinib and sintilimab. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this treatment regimen and to preliminarily explore the correlation between biomarkers and treatment outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of low-dose vitamin C on improving the quality of life for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients receiving gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy.
This is a case-control study to clinically validate the performance of a protein biomarker test to differentiate Stage I and Stage II pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patient samples from samples acquired from control patients not diagnosed with PDAC but at increased risk of disease due to familial/genetic history or clinical symptoms.
This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with progressive metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CCI-779, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
The purpose of the protocol is to estimate the progression-free survival (PFS) rate in subjects diagnosed with PanNET, according to investigator assessment, at 24 months after treatment initiation with lanreotide 120 mg every 28 days.
A single-centre, randomised clinical trial of patients affected by periampullary cancer who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomies which included two different types of specimen margination: arm A (multicolour inking) and arm B (monocolour inking). The randomisation of the specimen was made after the resection, blinded for the surgeons involved in the operation. The primary endpoint was the overall R1 resection rate and its difference between the two arms. The secondary endpoints were the R1 resection rate in each margin and its difference between the two arms, and the impact of margin status on survival. A sample size of 18 patients was required.
This is a prospective observational multi-center pilot study of germline testing for participants receiving care at University of California participating locations with a new or existing diagnosis of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (PanNEN). This protocol is an extension of existing Genetic Testing Station efforts at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF)
The use of epidural catheters for postoperative analgesia in pancreatic surgery is recommended by the guidelines of the ERAS society. Some studies claim it may expose to hemodynamic alterations that may compromise outcome and increase postoperative complications, attributable to a malfunction of the catheter itself, often linked to a bad positioning, since this is usually positioned with LOS technique. Our hypothesis is that a positioning made using the radiographic guide the day before the intervention can significantly reduce the number of catheter's dysfunctions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile, tolerability, drug levels, drug effects, and preliminary efficacy of BMS-813160 alone or in combination with either chemotherapy or nivolumab or chemotherapy plus nivolumab in participants with metastatic colorectal and pancreatic cancers.
This is an open-label, multi-center, phase 1b study designed to determine a tolerable dose of CX-5461 administered by IV infusion on Day 1 and Day 8 of a 28-day cycle in patients with selected solid tumours and associated mutations for future Phase II trials. The safety and tolerability of CX-5461, preliminary evidence of antitumor effect and the effect of CX-5461 on the Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) will also be evaluated. The study will also evaluate the predictive value of mutational signatures and explore the significance of dynamic changes in ctDNA levels and plasma DNA methylome profiling in this study's exploratory cohort.
