Recruiting studies
- NCT05657743Recruiting

This trial studies whether a blood test (ctDNA, a DNA signal from tumors) can help track how pancreatic cancer responds during planned conversion therapy. It may help doctors spot treatment response earlier and guide next steps.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05911217RecruitingPhase 1
CT041 treatment after chemotherapy for resected pancreatic cancer
This Phase 1 study tests whether CT041 is safe and may help prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after it’s been removed and you’ve completed standard chemotherapy. You may be eligible if your tumor is positive for CLDN18.2 and your recovery and blood tests meet key requirements.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–79 - NCT06065891Recruiting
Lymph node removal in pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial studies whether removing extra lymph nodes during surgery for pancreatic cancer can help find if the cancer has spread. It is for patients whose tumor is considered removable or borderline removable.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT06141031RecruitingPhase 1
TTI-101 plus radiation for borderline or locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug (TTI-101) combined with targeted radiation (SBRT) for people with pancreatic cancer that is not removable by surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink tumors that are borderline resectable or locally advanced.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06353646Recruiting
XH001 plus immunotherapy and chemotherapy after pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial studies a new treatment called XH001 combined with standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy for people whose pancreatic cancer has been surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination helps prevent the cancer from coming back.

Chemotherapy before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a three-drug chemotherapy combination (gemcitabine, cisplatin, and nab-paclitaxel) given before surgery for people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed or is on the edge of being removable. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve surgery outcomes.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06423963Recruiting
Exercise and nutrition before pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a home-based exercise and nutrition program can help people with pancreatic cancer get stronger before surgery. It’s designed for those who are not already doing regular strength training.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06538857RecruitingPhase 2
Study of CEB-01 for resectable pancreatic cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called CEB-01 in people with pancreatic cancer that can be surgically removed. It aims to see if adding this drug to surgery improves outcomes.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06587061RecruitingPhase 2
HRS-4642 plus AG before and after surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a combination of two medications (HRS-4642 and AG) given before and after surgery for pancreatic cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this treatment helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06595160Recruiting
Diet and gut bacteria in pancreatic cancer treatment
This study looks at how diet and the bacteria in your gut might affect how well chemotherapy works for pancreatic cancer that can be surgically removed. If you have been newly diagnosed with this type of pancreatic cancer, you may be able to join.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06673017RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new treatment for pancreatic cancer before surgery
This trial tests a new treatment, PTM-101, placed during a laparoscopy procedure for people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed with surgery. It aims to see if adding this treatment before standard chemotherapy helps improve outcomes.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06714604RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing standard vs. longer chemo before pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial tests whether taking chemotherapy for a longer period before surgery can help people with borderline or locally advanced pancreatic cancer. It aims to see if a longer treatment course leads to better outcomes.
Gothenburg, VGRAges 18–90 - NCT06944106RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab plus chemo before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug ivonescimab to chemotherapy before surgery can help people with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The treatment is given for a short time to shrink the tumor and make surgery more likely to succeed.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07081360RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo before or after surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial compares two approaches for patients with pancreatic or periampullary cancer that can be surgically removed: getting chemotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) versus surgery first. It aims to find out which sequence leads to better outcomes.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 18–75 - NCT07126158RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus targeted drugs for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted radiation and two oral drugs (defactinib and avutometinib) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that hasn't spread to distant organs. It may be an option if you've already had at least 2 months of chemo and your cancer is still locally advanced or borderline resectable.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07131514RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for pancreatic cancer before and after surgery
This trial tests if giving a combination of four drugs before and after surgery can help treat pancreatic cancer. The drugs include HRS-4642, gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and adebrelimab. It may help shrink the tumor before surgery and lower the chance of cancer coming back afterward.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07269626RecruitingPhase 2
PULSAR therapy for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether adding a special type of radiation therapy (PULSAR) to standard chemotherapy can help control pancreatic cancer that has not spread far. It is for people who have already completed a few rounds of chemo without their cancer growing.
Seoul, Select Province/StateAges 19 years+ - NCT02843945RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing radiation for borderline pancreatic surgery using a tiny implant
This early trial studies whether adding targeted radiation during or around pancreatic surgery is safe and may improve outcomes for people with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. It is mainly looking at feasibility and safety while treating close to the tumor but not spreading (no metastasis).
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07542002RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy and Radiation for Pancreatic Cancer Before Surgery
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (liposomal irinotecan, 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and adebrelimab) given with radiation therapy before surgery for pancreatic cancer that can be surgically removed or is borderline removable. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve the chances of successful surgery.

Vaccine for pancreatic cancer with KRAS mutations
This trial tests a cancer vaccine (ELI-002 7P) for people with pancreatic cancer that hasn't spread to other parts of the body. It may be given alone or with another drug (tislelizumab) that helps the immune system fight cancer. The goal is to see if these treatments can help keep the cancer from coming back after surgery or chemotherapy.
