The primary objective of the trial is to test the new radio tracer 18F-ASIS for PET imaging of tissue factor (TF) expression. The tracer has the potential of identifying tumors with high levels of TF expression, which is expected to correlate with tumor aggression and prognosis. Furthermore, the tracer can potentially be used as companion imaging diagnostic agent for identifying patients eligible for TF directed therapies.
This is a first-in-man study to test the radio tracer in cancer patients. Safety, biodistribution and dosimetry will be evaluated by repeated PET imaging (1 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours post-injection).
This study aims to conduct a large-scale prospective clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine monotherapy as maintenance treatment following standard adjuvant chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus capecitabine) in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer, and to analyze whether ctDNA-MRD testing can guide the selection of postoperative maintenance therapy.
This is an open-label multicenter, phase 1-2 study. Following determination of the recommended AEG35156 dose in combination with gemcitabine in the initial Phase 1 part of this study, additional patients will be enrolled in the Phase 2 part of the study to assess the activity of the combination first-line in advanced pancreatic cancer.
This is a research study where researchers are collecting blood to evaluate the genetic characteristics of individuals with chronic lung diseases, including asthma, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), interstitial lung disease, cystic fibrosis, and lung cancer. The investigators hope to be able to identify an association between a genetic make-up in the blood samples and the risks of developing a particular lung disease, or severity of a lung disease. The findings of this study might be important to develop future preventative methods and potential treatments for the management of lung disease.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of new ablation catheter developed by MEDICAL TAEWOONG for the treatment of pancreatic neoplasm (pancreatic adenocarcinoma or neuroendocrine tumour). The ablation is performed using EUSRA needle and radio frequency waves under ultrasound imaging. The subject who will be recruited into this study are patients who are deemed as non-surgical candidates.
The purpose of having this database is to collect data related to endoscopic ultrasound RFA procedures performed by Indiana University EUS physicians for the treatment of tumors or adenopathy. This database is a repository database only, all information will be obtained in the electronic medical record. No additional clinical procedures will be performed outside current standard of care for endoscopic ultrasound. The patient will have already signed an informed consent for the endoscopic ultrasound. Subjects will be entered into the database for up to 10 years after the most recent procedure.
The main objective of the clinical trial is to determine if modified FOLFIRINOX (mFFX) alternated with biweekly Gemcitabine plus Nab-Paclitaxel (mGnabP) administered as a combined, front-line therapy will result in longer time to treatment failure (TTF) compared to the current standard of care with mFFX alone in treatment-naive patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
An Italian language version of the Cancer Worry Scale is not available yet.
The aim of this study is to develop and validate the Italian version of Cancer Worry Scale through subjects at high risk of pancreatic cancer for familiarity/genetic predisposition, or suffering from premalignant cystic lesions.
This is a single arm, open label Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of donafenib combined with S-1 in treating Patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer after chemotherapy with Nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine regimen.
To test the ability of new imaging techniques to monitor and predict response of pancreatic cancer to radiation and/or chemotherapy.
