This is a Phase I, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation study of DMUC5754A administered as a single agent by intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer or unresectable pancreatic cancer.
This research study is evaluating a new type of pancreatic cancer vaccine called "Personalized Neoantigen Cancer Vaccine" as a possible treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. The purpose of the clinical study is evaluating the safety, tolerability and partial efficacy of the personalized neoantigen cancer vaccine in the treatment of Chinese patients with advanced pancreatic cancer, so as to provide a new personalized therapeutic strategy for advanced pancreatic cancer patients.
It is known that cancer patients have mutations (changes in genetic material) that are specific to an individual patient and tumor. These mutations can cause the tumor cells to produce proteins that appear very different from the body's own cells. It is possible that these proteins used in a vaccine may induce strong immune responses, which may help the participant's body fight any tumor cells that could cause the cancer to come back in the future. The study will examine the safety of the vaccine when given at several different time points and will examine the participant's blood cells for signs that the vaccine induced an immune response.
Primary Objective:
To demonstrate that the addition of oxaliplatin to 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and Leucovorin (LV) will improve the Progression-Free Survival (PFS). Progression is based on RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors) criteria or death
Secondary Objective:
To evaluate other measures of tumor responses, safety, quality of life (QoL), and health utility assessment.
Pancreaticoduodenectomy is associated with a high incidence of postoperative complications. These postoperative complications could delay postoperative resumption of adequate oral intake. Clinical study on postoperative feeding after pancreaticoduodenectomy is very limited. Method of Nutritional support (Enteral feeding or total parenteral support)after pancreaticoduodenectomy is controversial.
1. To evaluate whether early enteral nutrition may be a suitable alternative to total parenteral nutrition
2. To evaluate whether enteral feeding improve nutritional status after pancreaticoduodenectomy
This study will test the amount of tissue, called ⋎ll block", obtained from your pancreas. Patients who are asked to participate in this study have a growth (mass) in the pancreas that needs a biopsy so a diagnosis can be made. Although we usually perform 2 to 4 passes (number of times the doctor biopsies the mass), at this time we do not know the ideal number of passes needed to obtain adequate amount of tissue for making a diagnosis. The purpose of this study is to compare the amount of tissue obtained with 2 passes versus 4 passes.
RATIONALE: Treating tumor tissue in the laboratory with different drugs may help doctors find the best drug for treating individual patients with pancreatic cancer.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying an individualized drug treatment selection process, based on laboratory results, for treating patients with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine efficacy of the treatment with erlotinib in combination with capecitabine in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety of ONIVYDE when used under standard clinical practice in South Korea; and to describe effectiveness in patients receiving ONIVYDE in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin for the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer under standard clinical care in South Korea.
The prognosis of pancreatic cancer is extremely poor. NCCN guidelines recommend FOLFIRINOX or modified-FOLFIRINOX as the first-line chemotherapeutic regimen. Studies have shown that immunotherapy with Anti-PD-1 antibody can effectively increase the response rate and prolong patient survival in a number of cancer diseases. Here investigators intend to compare the therapeutic effects of modified-FOLFIRINOX alone and the combination of modified-FOLFIRINOX and Anti-PD-1 antibody in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
The primary objective of this study, sponsored by Travera Inc. in Massachusetts, is to validate whether the mass response biomarker has potential to predict response of patients to specific therapies or therapeutic combinations using isolated tumor cells from various specimen formats including malignant fluids such as pleural effusions and ascites, core needle biopsies, fine needle aspirates, or resections.
