Economisation of Whipple Resection Using an Ultrasonic Dissection Device

Including 150 randomised patient, the studies aim is to determine whether an economisation and/or improvement in terms of operating time, drainage fluid, blood loss, time of hospitalisation can be found using an ultrasonic dissection device versus traditional surgical methods such as stitches an ligations.The study is performed for patients undergoing partial pancreatoduodenectomy.

Immunologic Signatures Following Surgery for Pancreatic Cancer

The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate and describe the immunologic and overall outcomes of subjects who undergo routine pancreatectomy with or without irreversible electroporation (IRE) for pancreatic cancer. Immunologic markers in the blood will be measured at several time points before and after surgery to determine if surgical approach is associated with different immunologic responses. Secondary outcomes will include mortality and morbidity; operative time; blood loss and transfusion requirements; and oncologic outcomes such as: margin status, lymph node harvest, disease-free survival, and overall survival. Analysis of immune response will help the investigator determine whether to expand the pilot into a larger study.

Study to Evaluate TNG348 Alone and With a PARP Inhibitor in Patients With BRCA 1/2 Mutant or HRD+ Solid Tumors

The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to learn about TNG348, a ubiquitin specific peptidase 1 (USP1) inhibitor, alone and in combination with olaparib in patients with BRCA 1/2 mutant or HRD+ solid tumors.

The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

* to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single agent and combination therapy
* to determine the recommended dose for Phase 2 of single agent and combination therapy
* to determine the pharmacokinetics of TNG348 as a single agent and in combination therapy
* to evaluate the initial antineoplastic activity as a single agent and in combination therapy

Participants will receive study treatment until they experience an undesirable side effect, their disease progresses or until they withdraw consent.

Telemedicine in the Management of Pain in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is a major public health issue because of its disastrous prognosis. The symptomatology of locally advanced or metastatic forms, particularly painful, is often major and difficult to balance, impacting both the quality of life of patients (and those around them) and the course of treatment (chemotherapy).

The objective of this study is to evaluate the interest and feasibility of telemedicine in the management of pain in patients undergoing treatment for advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

AB122 Platform Study

This is a phase 1, non-randomized open-label, multicenter platform study designed to evaluate the tolerability and safety of AB122 in patients with malignancies specified in each cohort.

An Imaging Study of [18]F-fluoro-3'-Deoxy-3'-L-fluorothymidine ([18]F-FLT) in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Who Will be Treated With Gemcitabine or Other Nucleoside Analogs

The objectives of this pilot study are: (i) to compare response to chemotherapy, time to disease progression and overall survival in patients with pancreatic cancer who will be treated with gemcitabine (or other nucleoside analogs) who demonstrate [18]F-FLT uptake to those patients who do not demonstrate [18]F-FLT uptake; (ii) to correlate [18]F-FLT uptake with hENT1 expression in biopsy samples where available; (iii)to determine the presence or absence of uptake, the relative uptake score (RUS), standardized uptake value (SUV), and tumor to background ratios (T/B) of [18]F-FLT in patients with known carcinoma of the pancreas and assess this uptake in relation to time to disease progression; and (iv) to demonstrate the safety of [18]F-FLT.

SurePathTM Liquid-based Cytology and Conventional Smear Cytology in Pancreatic Lesions

The SurePathTM has been approved by the FDA since 1997. Currently, the SurePathTM is used for endometrial cells, body fluids, bronchoscopy aspirates, and thyroid fine needle aspirates. There is an advantage that the denaturation is small, the density of the cells is uniform, and the read area is small so that the read time can be shortened. Therefore, investigators plan to apply the SurePathTM test for pancreatic EUS-FNA specimens. Morphological comparative analysis is needed before completely replacing the existing classical smear test method. The aim of this study is to confirm that the SurePathTM is not inferior and is more accurate than the classical smear test.

S-1, Irinotecan, and Oxaliplatin in Locally-Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

This phase II clinical trial will enroll patients with newly-diagnosed locally-advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma and adopt the Simon's two-stage optimum design. After 4 cycles of SIROX regimen, patients will proceed to curative resection.

SBRT for Close or Positive Margins After Resection of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

The current study seeks to further investigate the impact of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy following pancreatic resection with a close or positive margin. The investigators hope to improve local control, and through the use of a shortened treatment schedule, allow patients to begin systemic therapy earlier.

Anti-CD3 x Anti-Erbitux® Armed Activated T Cells (Phase Ib) for Gastrointestinal (GI Cancer)

The purpose of this research study is for the participant to give their own T cells (a type of blood cell in the body that can fight infections and possibly cancer) to them after they have been removed, grown in a lab, and then coated with an experimental drug.

This study will determine the highest dose of EGFR2Bi coated T cells that can be given without causing severe side effects. Initially a group of 3 participants will receive the same dose of study drug. If no serious side effects occur, the next group of participants will receive a slightly higher dose of study agent. The following groups of participants will receive higher doses of the study drug until a dose is reached where there are unacceptable side effects and maximum tolerated dose is found, or the planned highest dose level is reached with no side effects.
