Study of SGN-CEACAM5C for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SGN-CEACAM5C in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The drug targets a protein on cancer cells to try to stop them from growing.

Radiation and study drug for hard-to-treat pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new medicine (TTI-101) combined with targeted radiation for people with pancreatic cancer that is either borderline or locally advanced. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or control the cancer better than usual treatments.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06079346RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New drug with chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called OT-101 combined with a standard chemotherapy regimen (mFOLFIRINOX) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if the combination can help shrink or control the cancer better than chemotherapy alone.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 135 recruiting advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
