Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06278454RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive injection for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new radioactive injection called NRT6008 for people with pancreatic cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if the treatment can shrink the tumor and improve survival.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–80 - NCT06283576Enrolling by invitation
Pancreatic cancer early detection with blood test
This trial studies a blood test to find pancreatic cancer early. It may help people who are at risk or have suspicious signs.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06172478RecruitingPhase 2
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 drug is an antibody-drug conjugate, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells that have a protein called HER3 on their surface.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06160323Recruiting
Pain block for inoperable pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether an early nerve block during endoscopy can better control pain from pancreatic cancer compared to waiting and using standard treatments.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06151223Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer risk registry for high-risk individuals
This study is a registry for people at high risk for pancreatic cancer. Researchers will collect information over time to learn more about how to detect and prevent the disease.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06030622RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer after standard therapy
This trial tests a combination of three medicines to see if they can slow down or shrink pancreatic cancer that has not responded to previous treatments or has come back. It might help if you are generally healthy and your cancer is advanced.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06026943Recruiting
Alpha radiation therapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new treatment that uses tiny alpha radiation sources placed directly into the tumor to destroy cancer cells. It is for people with pancreatic cancer that has not spread but cannot be removed surgically, and who have already tried at least one type of chemotherapy or cannot take more chemo.
VeronaAges 18–120 - 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.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05657743Recruiting
Radiation seeds study for advanced pancreatic cancer safety
This trial tests a radiation treatment that places tiny radioactive seeds directly into the tumor to treat advanced pancreatic cancer. It mainly focuses on safety and whether the treatment can be delivered effectively, especially for people who may not be able to have more chemotherapy or surgery.
HolonAges 18 years+ - NCT05518903RecruitingPhase 2
Scan test to see tumor-support cells in pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a special imaging scan (a PET/CT with a tracer called 68Ga-FAPI-46) to look at “cancer-support” cells in people with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. It may help doctors better understand the tumor and how it responds before surgery after initial treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05497531Recruiting
Test blood DNA to help guide liver and pancreas biopsies
This pilot study checks whether a special blood test (ctDNA) can detect cancer signals and work as well as another sample method during biopsies for liver, bile duct, or pancreatic cancers. It may help doctors choose the best way to confirm the diagnosis from biopsy samples.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05428358Recruiting
MRI helps choose which pancreatic cancer patients can have surgery
This trial studies whether adding an MRI scan improves the selection of people with pancreatic cancer who may benefit from surgery. It focuses on patients without liver spread and with tumors that are borderline or likely removable.
