This research study is studying a combination of interventions as a possible treatment for pancreatic tumor.
The interventions involved in this study are:
* FOLFIRINOX which is made up of 4 different drugs:
* 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)
* Oxaliplatin
* Irinotecan
* Leucovorin
* Losartan
* Nivolumab
* Radiation Therapy
* Surgery
Phase I study of lapatinib and gemcitabine for patients with metastatic pancreaticobiliary cancer.
The p63 gene is a recently discovered member of the p53 family located at chromosome 3q27Many studies have reported that overexpression of p63 can mimic p53 activities by binding DNA, activating transcription, and inducing apoptosis.
Various studies proved p63 as a marker of basal cells in normal salivary glands, breast, prostate, respiratory and squamous epithelia, and of tumor cells from various malignancies. Still, p63 has been the subject of relatively few studies in lung adenocarcinoma, and breast carcinoma, and no study has described the correlation of p63 with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
In the current study, we aim to evaluate the prognostic value of the expression of p63 in the lung adenocarcinoma, breast adenocarcinoma, and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. We will achieve this aim by collecting clinical data retrospectively from the patients' medical records as well as assessing the histological sections and performing immunohistochemical staining for p63.
RATIONALE: Chemotherapy may cause blood clots to form in the thigh, leg, and lung. This study may help doctors understand how often blood clots occur in patients undergoing chemotherapy.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how often blood clots occur in patients undergoing chemotherapy for solid tumors, including colorectal cancer, stomach cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, or metastatic breast cancer
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a poor prognosis, with early diagnosis crucial for improving survival. Due to the absence of effective screening methods, most patients are diagnosed at advanced stages. The population undergoing low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening significantly overlaps with those at high risk for PDAC; however, traditional imaging methods have limited sensitivity for detecting pancreatic lesions. This study utilizes the Pancreatic Cancer Detection with Artificial Intelligence (PANDA) system to enhance LDCT for pancreatic cancer screening in a prospective, multicenter, observational cohort. PANDA will analyze LDCT images, followed by a multidisciplinary team (MDT) reassessment of abnormal interpretations. Based on MDT evaluation, individuals will be recalled for further examination, placed under a personalized follow-up plan, or monitored for at least one year. The primary outcomes include pancreatic cancer detection rate, positive predictive value, consensus rate, and recall rate, while secondary outcomes focus on early-stage cancers, resectable tumors, and safety indicators such as false positive rates and unnecessary procedures. This study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of AI-assisted LDCT for PDAC detection, providing a practical solution for improving public health and enhancing early diagnostic capabilities.
The purpose of the CCANED-CIPHER study is to develop and validate an AI-based blood test for early cancer detection and to monitor treatment effectiveness in cancer patients. This two-phase, multi-center observational study aims to identify specific transcriptomic biomarkers in platelets and immune cells that distinguish cancer patients from healthy individuals and correlate with treatment outcomes. By analysing blood samples using artificial intelligence, the study seeks to create a safe, non-invasive method to enhance cancer diagnosis and monitor treatment responses over time.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. WX-671 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving gemcitabine together with WX-671 may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well gemcitabine works when given together with WX-671 or when given alone in treating patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.
This is a randomized phase II, parallel group study. Patients with gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET) well differentiated G1 – G2 (ki67≤ 20%) and G3 (ki67≤ 50%), somatostatin receptor (SSR) positive and 18-FDG positive will be enrolled in the study and will be randomly assigned to 2 different arms:
* Arm Lu-PRRT-Cap: oral low dose of capecitabine in association with Lu-PRRT (at 3.7 Gbq per cycle x 7 cycles) followed by long acting octreotide or lanreotide (SS-LAR); OR
* Arm Lu-PRRT: Lu-PRRT (at 3.7 gigabecquerel (Gbq) per cycle x 7 cycles) followed by SS-LAR.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients with advanced cancer of the pancreas.
This is a prospective, randomized study designed to compare genotype-guided dosing to usual care in patients with pancreas cancer and colorectal cancer who are UGT1A1 intermediate metabolizers (*1/*28) (heterozygotes) and usual UGT metabolizers (*1/*1). All patients will be assessed for UGT1A1 genotype at screening and those with intermediate or usual UGT1A1 genotypes (*1/*28, *1/*1) will be randomized to genotype-guided dosing versus usual care.
