Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT07009119Recruiting
Laparoscopic surgery for pancreatic and bile duct cancers
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery called laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy to remove certain cancers in the pancreas, bile duct, or nearby areas. It may help patients whose cancer has not spread and can be fully removed with surgery.
MinyaAges 18–75 - NCT06943521RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MT-4561 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called MT-4561 in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to prior treatments. It aims to see if the drug can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06910657RecruitingPhase 1
IDOV-Immune vaccine for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental virus-based treatment for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard therapies. The treatment is designed to infect and destroy cancer cells while boosting the immune system.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05914987Recruiting
Personalized treatment approach for pancreatic cancer patients
This trial studies how doctors choose individualized cancer treatment for people with pancreatic cancer. It may help them learn which treatment choices work best for different patients.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04588025Recruiting
MRI study using a special model to measure pancreatic cancer response
This study tests a new, harmless “disposable” setup for MRI scans to measure how pancreatic cancer treatments affect the body. It may help doctors get more accurate MRI measurements, so treatment response can be assessed better.
Columbus, OhioAges 19 years+ - NCT04157127RecruitingPhase 1
Pancreatic cancer vaccine with chemotherapy before/around surgery
This early-stage trial tests a personalized immune “vaccine” made from dendritic cells, given alongside standard chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer that may be removable by surgery (resectable or borderline resectable). If it works, it may help your immune system better recognize and attack the cancer around the time of treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02775461Recruiting
Registry for people at high risk for pancreatic cancer
This study is a registry (a way to track health over time) for people with a strong family history or certain inherited genetic risks for pancreatic cancer. It may help doctors learn how best to monitor and protect high-risk people, and to see who benefits most from follow-up.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07439757Recruiting
Using AI to Guide Care for Pancreatic Conditions
This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help doctors make better decisions for people with suspected pancreatic conditions. If you are already getting a special CT scan, the AI will analyze the images to see if it can improve diagnosis and treatment planning.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07324096Recruiting
