Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06850623RecruitingPhase 2

Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07114939RecruitingPhase 1
A new pet scan for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
This study is testing a special type of PET/CT scan using a tracer called FTT to see if it can better find and track pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to improve imaging for people with this type of cancer.

What taking part in a pancreatic cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
