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.
The AJCC TNM staging system is the prevailing method in prognostic evaluation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) at present , but it did not include factors such as the tumor immune microenvironment that are known to exert a profound impact on patients'clinical outcome. This study was aimed to develop a comprehensive and effective prognostic score model to predict prognosis and guide clinical management for postoperative PDAC patients.
20 participants are expected to be enrolled for this open，Single-armed clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the recombinant herpes simplex virus Ⅰ, R130 in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Patients with Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome suffer from ulcers of the upper gastrointestinal tract, higher than normal levels of gastric acid, and tumors of the pancreas known as non-beta islet cell tumors.
Prior to the use of drugs to cure the ulcers, patients typically died due to severe ulcers. Because of such effective drugs to treat the ulcers it is more common to see patients dying due to the pancreatic tumors.
The study will observe patients suffering from Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome and non-beta islet cell tumors and determine the effectiveness of combined chemotherapy with streptozotocin, 5-fluorouracil, and doxorubicin.
RATIONALE: Genistein may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving genistein before surgery may be an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying genistein to see how well it works in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery.
This study is an open and single-center Phase I clinical research on patients with advanced pancreatic cancer, for evaluating their adverse reactions or tolerance to K-001, so as to determine the safe and reasonable dosage and dosing regimen.
This study compares the effect of acupuncture and placebo acupuncture on advanced pancreatic cancer pain and then investigates its potential mechanism of peripheral blood.
This is a single-arm, open-label, exploratory study to evaluate efficacy and safety of envafolimab combined with endostar and nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine for first-line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer.
This phase III trial studies cabozantinib to see how well it works compared with placebo in treating patients with neuroendocrine or carcinoid tumors that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Cabozantinib is a chemotherapy drug known as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and it targets specific tyrosine kinase receptors, that when blocked, may slow tumor growth.
In recent years, treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer is changing. Currently, there are several active schedules of chemotherapy that can be used, such as gemcitabine as monotherapy or in combination with capecitabine or erlotinib, and FOLFIRINOX. Moreover, the development of biomarker (therapeutic targets) that can predicte response to treatment is a new important tool to be used in clinical practice to select the best scheme for each patient. Preliminary studies showed that therapeutic target determination, using tumor tissue collected from patients, could determine the presence of groups of Ȭhemotherapy responders". Such is the case of EGFR amplification and/or K-Ras gene status and correlation with response to erlotinib. Moreover, Thymidilate Synthase, Thimidine Phosphorylase, ERCC-1 and Topoisomerase I expression by immunohistochemistry in GI tumor samples has been related to resistance or response to 5FU-capecitabine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan respectively. Based on this data the investigators designed a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of selected treatment for pancreatic cancer patients based on the determination of therapeutic targets. The therapeutic target-driven treatment efficacy will be compared to the prospective treatment of a control group of patients treated at the discretion of the physician-researcher
