Recruiting studies
- NCT05428358Recruiting
MRI helps choose which pancreatic cancer patients can have surgery
This trial studies whether adding an MRI scan improves the selection of people with pancreatic cancer who may benefit from surgery. It focuses on patients without liver spread and with tumors that are borderline or likely removable.
AalborgAges 18–99 - NCT05462496RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus gut microbiome changes after pancreatic chemo
This Phase 2 study tests whether changing the gut microbiome (the gut’s helpful bacteria) and giving pembrolizumab after chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with operable pancreatic cancer. It aims to see if this approach can boost the immune system after standard treatment and help reduce cancer returning.
New York, New YorkAges 19 years+ - NCT05518903RecruitingPhase 2
Scan test to see tumor-support cells in pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a special imaging scan (a PET/CT with a tracer called 68Ga-FAPI-46) to look at “cancer-support” cells in people with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. It may help doctors better understand the tumor and how it responds before surgery after initial treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05524090Recruiting
Program to prepare for surgery in locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial studies an “implementation program” to help patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer get ready for the next steps after chemotherapy. It may help improve care planning and outcomes for people whose cancer has not grown after initial treatment.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05657743Recruiting
Radiation seeds study for advanced pancreatic cancer safety
This trial tests a radiation treatment that places tiny radioactive seeds directly into the tumor to treat advanced pancreatic cancer. It mainly focuses on safety and whether the treatment can be delivered effectively, especially for people who may not be able to have more chemotherapy or surgery.
HolonAges 18 years+ - NCT05686226RecruitingPhase 2
Trial tests immune cells targeting HPV-16 cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests an immune-cell treatment (E7 TCR T cells) designed to attack cancers caused by HPV type 16. It may help people whose HPV-16+ cancer has come back or not responded to standard treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05714124Recruiting
Testing liver procedures to treat tumors when surgery isn’t possible
This trial studies different ways to place treatments inside the liver to control liver tumors when they can’t be removed with surgery or ablation. It may help certain people by improving how well the tumor is treated while keeping liver function safer.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05733000RecruitingPhase 2
CPI-613 plus hydroxychloroquine with chemo for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called CPI-613 (devimistat) combined with hydroxychloroquine along with either 5-fluorouracil or gemcitabine chemo. It’s for people with advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments, aiming to shrink tumors and slow cancer growth.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05766748RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Azeliragon trial for pancreatic cancer after prior treatments failed
This trial tests azeliragon in people whose pancreatic cancer has spread or grown locally and who did not respond well to earlier chemotherapy. It aims to see whether the drug can help control the cancer and be tolerated after prior treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05776524RecruitingPhase 2
Radiofrequency heat treatment for pancreas cancer spread to other organs
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a device that delivers carefully timed “radiofrequency heat” through the body can slow or control metastatic (spread) pancreatic cancer. You may qualify if you have newly diagnosed metastatic pancreatic cancer and can meet safety and blood-test requirements.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05827796RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing IN10018 plus chemo with an added antibody in pancreatic cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a new medicine (IN10018) and a specific added antibody (KN046) together with standard chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer. It aims to see whether this combination can better control the cancer and how safely it can be given.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05837767Recruiting
Radiation study for tumors that spread to soft tissue areas
This study looks at how a planned form of palliative radiation therapy treats certain solid cancers that have spread outside the brain to larger soft-tissue areas. It may help shrink tumors and relieve symptoms, but it also asks you to meet specific safety and treatment-timing rules.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05859750RecruitingPhase 2
AK104 plus chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests AK104 (an antibody medicine) given with standard chemotherapy as the first treatment for advanced pancreatic ductal cancer. It aims to see whether this combination works better and is safe for people with cancer that has spread or is advanced.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05869474Recruiting
Iodine seed implant plus chemotherapy for metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial studies whether placing iodine-125 radioactive seeds during a procedure, along with chemotherapy, can improve outcomes for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other organs. It aims to test a treatment that targets the tumor area while systemic chemotherapy works throughout the body.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT05927142RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Durvalumab plus rintatolimod for metastatic pancreatic cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding rintatolimod to durvalumab can improve outcomes for people with metastatic pancreatic cancer. It aims to see if this combination can better activate the immune system against the cancer after initial chemotherapy.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05929885RecruitingPhase 2
Genotype-guided chemo for metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a chemo plan that includes different drugs and adjusts the irinotecan dose based on a patient’s genetic test (UGT1A1). It’s designed for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread or cannot be removed with surgery.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT05988814RecruitingPhase 2
FOLFIRINOX3 for advanced pancreatic cancer

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic pancreatic cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 422 recruiting metastatic pancreatic cancer 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 metastatic pancreatic cancer 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 metastatic pancreatic cancer 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.
