This trial tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) built from your own blood lymphocytes. It targets cancers that show a marker called CD70, aiming to slow or stop the cancer when other treatments didn’t work.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT07241676Enrolling by invitation
Pancreatic cancer surgery and early recurrence study
This study looks at patients who had surgery to remove pancreatic cancer to understand what factors might lead to the cancer coming back early. If you have had surgery for pancreatic cancer and are interested in helping researchers learn more, this may be a fit.
Padova, PDAges 18 years+ - NCT07132541RecruitingPhase 1
New surgical glue technique for pancreas connection after Whipple surgery
This trial tests a new method using a surgical glue called N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate to seal the pancreas after a Whipple procedure. It may help prevent leaks and improve recovery for patients with a soft pancreas and small pancreatic duct.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 18–75 - NCT07230509RecruitingPhase 2
Glue injection to prevent pancreatic leaks after Whipple surgery
This study tests injecting a medical glue into the pancreas during a Whipple procedure to see if it can prevent leaks. It may help people with a soft pancreas and small pancreatic duct.

Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–75 - NCT05939063Recruiting
Testing two surgery approaches for early left pancreatic cancer
This trial compares two ways of doing surgery in people with early, left-sided pancreatic cancer that can be removed. It may help find the approach with better outcomes while aiming to keep the operation safe and effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05957250Recruiting
PET scan study to better image pancreatic and bile duct cancer
This study uses a special PET scan drug (Ga-FAPI-46) to create clearer pictures of pancreatic and bile duct cancers. It may help doctors decide on the best next steps—especially before surgery—by checking tumor size and looking for spread.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06069297Recruiting
Prehabilitation before pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a pre-surgery program of exercise and nutrition (called prehabilitation) can help people with pancreatic cancer recover better after surgery. Participants will receive guidance on physical activity and diet before their operation.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT06159478RecruitingPhase 2
Testing binimetinib for BRAF fusion brain tumors and pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a targeted drug, binimetinib, for people with low-grade glioma (a type of brain tumor) or pancreatic cancer that has a specific genetic change called a BRAF fusion. The drug aims to block signals that help these tumors grow.
Kashiwa, ChibaAges 12 years+ - NCT06456281Recruiting
Blood test for early pancreatic cancer detection
This trial uses a blood test (called cfDNA) to look for early signs of pancreatic cancer. It compares results from people with pancreatic cancer, precancerous changes, non-cancerous pancreatic conditions, and healthy individuals to improve early detection.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT01174121RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy made from your tumor-fighting immune cells
This trial tests a treatment made from your own immune cells (called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, or TILs) for certain metastatic cancers. It’s designed for people whose cancer has not responded to standard treatments and who can safely provide a small tumor sample for cell-making.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT05005403RecruitingPhase 1
Testing azirkitug for lung, head/neck, and other solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests how a new medicine (azirkitug) behaves in the body and how safe it is, given by IV infusion alone or with other cancer drugs. It may help people with several advanced solid tumor cancers, especially after standard treatments have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05843877RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery choice and insulin islet transplant to prevent leaks
This Phase 3 trial studies a pancreatic surgery approach (pylorus-preserving Whipple or similar) and, in some cases, moving your insulin-making cells into your body to help prevent a dangerous post-surgery leak from the pancreas. It may help people who are considered high risk for this complication based on pancreas texture and duct size.
DresdenAges 18 years+ - NCT06935448Recruiting
Recovery program for pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial tests a special recovery program called Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for people having planned open surgery for pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if this program helps patients recover faster and with fewer complications after their operation.
LarissaAges 18 years+ - NCT06914349Recruiting
Comparing two ways to reconnect the stomach after Whipple surgery
This trial compares two common surgical techniques for reconnecting the stomach and small intestine during a Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) to see if one leads to fewer complications. It may help surgeons choose the best approach for you.
LarissaAges 18–80 - NCT03322995RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant chemo study for resectable pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a chemotherapy plan given before surgery (called “neoadjuvant” treatment) for people with pancreatic adenocarcinoma that looks resectable or borderline resectable on scans. The goal is to see how well this adaptive chemotherapy approach works and whether it can improve outcomes before an operation.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06043921Recruiting
Personalized blood test for pancreatic cancer
This study uses a personalized blood test to look for tiny pieces of tumor DNA in people with pancreatic cancer. It helps doctors understand how the cancer changes during treatment.
KashiwaAges 20 years+ - NCT05825066RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy before surgery for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests giving chemotherapy before any surgery to people with borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor, which may make surgery more successful and improve outcomes.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pancreatic cancer resectable?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 270 recruiting pancreatic cancer resectable 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 pancreatic cancer resectable 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 pancreatic cancer resectable 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.
