Recruiting studies
- NCT07656571Recruiting

This trial compares standard laparoscopic surgery to surgery using a green dye that helps the surgeon see the pancreas more clearly. It may help patients needing removal of tumors in the body or tail of the pancreas.
AlexandriaAges 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+ - NCT06984562Recruiting
Adaptive radiation therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy that adapts to changes in your cancer over time. It is for people with pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery but has not spread to other parts of the body.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06219941RecruitingPhase 2
Studying AZD0901 for Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AZD0901 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific protein on their surface. It aims to see if the drug can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07148830Recruiting
Surgery technique study for pancreatic cancer patients
This trial tests a specific surgical method called mesopancreatic excision during Whipple surgery for pancreatic cancer. It may help remove more cancer tissue and improve outcomes for patients with resectable disease.

Study of a medicine to prevent low white blood cells from chemo
This trial tests a medicine (tripegfilgrastim) that helps prevent a serious drop in white blood cells (severe neutropenia) caused by certain chemotherapy. It is for people with advanced pancreatic or bile duct cancer who are starting a new treatment.

Triple therapy before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) before surgery for pancreatic cancer that can be removed. It aims to see if this triple therapy helps shrink tumors and improve survival.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05727020Recruiting
Breath test study for pancreatic cancer and related conditions
This study checks whether breathing out certain chemicals (volatile organic compounds) can help identify pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (pancreatic cancer) or related pancreas problems. You may qualify if you’re an adult with suspected/confirmed pancreatic conditions and can safely take part in breath testing or surgery-related tissue collection.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06428409RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
A study of MK-2870 for several gastrointestinal cancers
This trial is testing a new drug called MK-2870, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced colorectal, pancreatic, or bile duct cancer. It aims to see if the drug can help shrink or control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07610798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing INV-8989 for Advanced Cancers With KRAS G12D Mutation
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called INV-8989 designed to target a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12D) found in some advanced solid cancers. The study will evaluate whether the drug is safe and if it can help shrink tumors in patients who haven't responded to standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
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.
Santa Rosa, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04570943RecruitingPhase 2
Pancreatic cancer treatment: chemo first, then targeted MRI-guided radiation
This Phase 2 trial tests giving specific chemotherapy in sequence, then using MRI-guided focused radiation to treat locally advanced, non-removable pancreatic cancer. It may help shrink or control the tumor while aiming radiation more precisely using MRI.
Marseille, Bouches-du-RhôneAges 18–75 - NCT07249775Recruiting
Study of new drug FID-022 for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new study drug called FID-022 for people with pancreatic cancer. It is a first-in-human study, meaning it is the first time this drug is being tested in people, and researchers want to see if it is safe and how it works.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05845801Recruiting
Study registry for young adults with pancreatic cancer
This study is a registry, meaning it collects information about young adults diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers better understand this cancer in younger people and improve future care.
VeronaAges 18–55 - NCT01954992RecruitingPhase 3
Glufosfamide vs 5-FU for metastatic pancreatic cancer after gemcitabine
This study compares two chemotherapy drugs—glufosfamide and 5-FU—in people with pancreatic cancer that has spread and got worse after gemcitabine. It aims to see which option works better as a “second-line” treatment.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07024615RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ASP2138 before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This study tests an experimental drug, ASP2138, given before surgery for pancreatic cancer that is still removable. After surgery, you will receive standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding ASP2138 before surgery helps improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05117723Recruiting
IPMN cyst database to help predict pancreatic cancer risk
This study collects information from people who have an IPMN cyst in the pancreas to help predict who may be at higher risk of pancreatic cancer. It may help your care team estimate risk and plan follow-up more effectively.
Fitzroy, VictoriaAges 18–90 - NCT06287749Recruiting
Liquid biopsy for monitoring pancreatic cancer after surgery
This trial is testing a blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny traces of cancer DNA after surgery for pancreatic cancer. It may help doctors understand if the cancer is likely to come back.
Montpellier, HéraultAges 18 years+ - NCT06310902Recruiting
Single-cell study for resectable pancreatic cancer patients
This trial uses a special technique called single-cell sequencing to study pancreatic cancer cells from patients whose tumors can be surgically removed or are on the edge of being removable. Participation may help researchers understand the disease better and could guide future treatments.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06602037Recruiting

Exosome treatment for KRAS-mutated metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 1/2 study tests an investigational treatment made from “exosomes” for people with metastatic pancreatic cancer that has a specific KRAS mutation (KRAS G12D). It aims to see if this treatment can control the cancer and is safe for patients whose cancer has grown or stayed the same after prior chemotherapy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pancreatic cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 717 recruiting 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 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 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.
