St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06651580Recruiting
Gene study for kids with pancreas problems
This study collects samples like blood or tissue from children with pancreatitis to look for gene changes that might raise their risk. It helps doctors learn more about why some children get pancreas inflammation.
St Louis, MissouriAges Up to 17 years - NCT05040360RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.

MK2 inhibitor plus mFOLFIRINOX for metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called zunsemetinib (an MK2 inhibitor) combined with a standard chemotherapy regimen (mFOLFIRINOX) for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other organs. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06073431Recruiting
Study on weight loss types in advanced cancer
This study looks at different types of weight loss (cachexia) in people with advanced lung, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer. Researchers want to find patterns to better understand and treat it. You can join even if you haven't lost weight yet.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05975593Recruiting
Study how radiation affects tumor biology in cervical or pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how radiotherapy changes the tumor environment, using lab samples collected during treatment. It may help researchers understand why radiation works differently for different people and could improve future treatment planning.

HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments.

The goal is to see if adding setidegrasib helps control the cancer better than chemo alone.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04858334RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib after pancreatic cancer surgery for BRCA or PALB2 mutations
This trial studies whether olaparib (a targeted cancer medicine) can help prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery in people with BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 mutations. You would get olaparib or a placebo (inactive pill) and be closely followed to see if recurrence is reduced.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06835569RecruitingPhase 1
ALTA3263 for advanced KRAS-mutated solid tumors

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.
