Recruiting studies
- 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 - NCT07089940RecruitingEarly Phase 1
OMO-103 for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called OMO-103 in people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It may be an option whether you have had treatment before or not, as long as it's been at least 2 weeks since your last therapy.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07157033RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing XER-001 with radiation for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new way to deliver a drug called amifostine (XER-001) alongside intense radiation therapy (SBRT) for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that can't be surgically removed. The goal is to see if it's safe and effective at protecting healthy tissue while targeting the tumor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07241663Recruiting
Surgery for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial is testing whether surgery can help people with a certain type of pancreatic cancer that is locally advanced but not yet spread. You may join if your cancer has shrunk or stayed stable after at least 4 months of chemotherapy and your medical team thinks surgery is possible.
PadovaAges 18 years+ - NCT07254091RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Implantable chip to test chemo in pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial tests a tiny implantable device that measures how different chemotherapy drugs work on your tumor during surgery. The goal is to find the most effective treatment for your specific cancer.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07326137Recruiting
Pain relief and first-line treatment for advanced bile duct or pancreatic cancer
This study tests combining standard first-line cancer therapy with a nerve block to reduce pain in people with advanced bile duct or pancreatic cancer. It aims to see if this combination can improve pain control and quality of life.
Wuhan, HubeiAges Any age - NCT02600949Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Peptide vaccine study for advanced pancreatic or colon cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized vaccine made from a patient’s tumor to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer. It is for people with advanced pancreatic or colorectal cancer (often after surgery or while metastatic) and aims to see if the approach is safe and can help immune control of the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07410494RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized donor cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy (CAR-NK) using donor immune cells that are engineered to find and attack one or two markers on advanced solid tumors. It may be an option for people whose tumors have these specific markers and have exhausted other treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 8–85 - NCT07410676RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Donor NK cells with IL-15 and pembrolizumab for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (natural killer cells) made from a donor, combined with low-dose IL-15 (a protein that helps these cells work) and sometimes with pembrolizumab (Keytruda), for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT07425483RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new treatment using immune cells (CAR-NK cells) to fight pancreatic cancer that has spread or come back. It may be an option if standard treatments have stopped working, were not tolerated, or were refused.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07549958RecruitingPhase 1
Gemcitabine with or without Pitavastatin for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
This study tests whether adding pitavastatin (a cholesterol-lowering drug) to gemcitabine chemotherapy can help treat pancreatic cancer that cannot be surgically removed. You would join if your cancer hasn't grown worse after 2–4 rounds of gemcitabine.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07589569RecruitingPhase 2
HRS-7058 for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
This study tests a new drug called HRS-7058 in patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. You may qualify if your cancer has already been treated with at least one prior therapy and you have measurable disease on imaging.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07595172RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug combination for advanced pancreatic cancer
This study tests whether combining three treatments—NALIRIFOX (chemotherapy), Adebrelimab (an immune-boosting antibody), and PULSAR (radiation)—can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer that hasn't been treated before. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard care.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT07595835RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Radioactive particles injected into pancreatic tumors
This trial tests a new treatment where doctors use imaging to guide radioactive particles directly into locally advanced pancreatic cancer tumors that haven't spread. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer with radiation delivered right to the tumor.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07610798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing INV-8989 for Advanced Cancers With KRAS G12D Mutation
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called INV-8989 designed to target a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12D) found in some advanced solid cancers. The study will evaluate whether the drug is safe and if it can help shrink tumors in patients who haven't responded to standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07649928RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing ES502 for Advanced Pancreatic and Other Cancers
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called ES502 for patients with advanced cancers (including pancreatic cancer) that have a specific genetic mutation and certain immune markers. The study aims to find the right dose and see if it helps shrink tumors.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07671339RecruitingPhase 1
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.

Study of STRO-004 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called STRO-004 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or come back). It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for those who have already tried other treatments.

Study of LM-108 with chemo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called LM-108 combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that hasn't been treated before. The goal is to see if it's safe and may help shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05529940RecruitingPhase 3
FOLFIRINOX around surgery for resectable pancreatic cancer
