The study investigated the role of L-Carnitine supplementation on proinflammatory immune response, malnutrition, cancer cachexia and cancer related fatigue in advanced and inoperable pancreatic cancer, UICC Stage IV .
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of everolimus when given together with sorafenib tosylate and to see how well they work in treating patients with advanced solid tumors and metastatic pancreatic cancer that does not respond to gemcitabine hydrochloride. Sorafenib tosylate and everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib tosylate may also stop the growth of pancreatic cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib tosylate together with everolimus may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of STIL101 for injection and how well it works in treating patients with pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer (CRC), renal cell cancer (RCC), cervical cancer (CC) and melanoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or to other places in the body (metastatic) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). STIL101 for injection, an autologous (made from the patients own cells) cellular therapy, is made up of specialized white blood cells called lymphocytes or "T cells" collected from a piece of the patients tumor tissue. The T cells collected from the tumor are then grown in a laboratory to create STIL101 for injection. STIL101 for injection is then given to the patient where it may attack the tumor. Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, helps prepare the body to receive STIL101 for injection in a way that allows the T cells the best opportunity to attack the tumor. Aldesleukin is a form of interleukin-2, a cytokine made by leukocytes. Aldesleukin increases the activity and growth of white blood cells called T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes. Giving STIL101 for injection may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with locally advanced, metastatic or unresectable pancreatic cancer, CRC, RCC, CC and melanoma.
The aim of this study is to investigate usefulness of low kVp high mAs computed tomography in evaluation of pancreatic cancer resectability.
The main purpose of this study is to look at the effectiveness, safety, and antitumor activity (preventing growth of the tumor) of the experimental study drug rucaparib (also known as CO-338) on subjects and on their pancreatic cancer.
This is an open-label randomized trial. Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive carbon ion radiotherapy versus standard care for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Subjects who receive carbon ion radiotherapy may receive additional chemotherapy afterwards, at the discretion of the treating physicians. Subjects on the control arm are also expected to receive chemotherapy, using a regimen selected by the treating physicians. Subjects on the control arm will not receive upfront radiotherapy but may receive radiotherapy (not carbon ion radiotherapy) if disease progression occurs.
Hypothesis: Survival benefits could be found in SBRT Plus Pembrolizumab and Trametinib compared with SBRT plus gemcitabine.
The purpose of this study is to collect the date on the safety and potential effectiveness of CART cells combined with interventional therapy in patients with advanced liver malignancy.
This is an open-label, non-randomized, sequentially enrolling single arm phase II trial to evaluate the activity of TAS-102 in previously treated metastatic and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer after progression through or intolerance to first or second line chemotherapy. Trial therapy will consist of TAS-102 (Lonsurf®) 35 mg/m2 to be given orally twice daily on days 1-5 and 8-12 with cycles repeating every 28 days. The primary endpoint is to determine the progression free survival (PFS) in subjects with unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of preoperative immunonutrition on complications and length of hospital stay in patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing elective surgery.
