Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT03823144Recruiting
Imaging small live tumor details during surgery
This study uses a special camera to look at solid tumors from inside the body during an operation. It tests whether “live” tumor imaging (using a medicine called fluorescein) can be safely performed in people with certain solid cancers.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05733000RecruitingPhase 2
CPI-613 plus hydroxychloroquine with chemo for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called CPI-613 (devimistat) combined with hydroxychloroquine along with either 5-fluorouracil or gemcitabine chemo. It’s for people with advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments, aiming to shrink tumors and slow cancer growth.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06906562RecruitingPhase 2
Pemigatinib for advanced pancreatic cancer with FGFR changes
This trial tests a targeted pill, pemigatinib, for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has a specific FGFR gene change. The study is done entirely through telemedicine, so you can participate from home if eligible.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07066995RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Dual-target CAR-T cell therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (CAR-T) that targets two markers on pancreatic cancer cells. It's for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have already tried standard chemotherapy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 21–90 - NCT06995898Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection
This study is testing a new blood test that may help find cancer early. You will give blood samples over a year, and researchers will check them for signs of cancer.
Pleasanton, CaliforniaAges 45–75 - NCT07285044RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment program for Florida panhandle residents
This study tests whether people with certain cancers can safely receive their regular intravenous treatments at home instead of coming to the clinic. It aims to make treatment more convenient and improve satisfaction, especially for those living in the Florida Panhandle.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT00830557Recruiting
Share information and donate tissue samples for pancreatic illnesses
This study collects health information and tissue samples from people with pancreatic cancer or other pancreatic conditions. Your participation may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve future care.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07359586Recruiting
Laryngopharyngeal injury after breathing tube under anesthesia
This study looks at throat and voice box injuries that can happen after having a breathing tube during surgery. It may help doctors understand why some people experience hoarseness, sore throat, cough, or choking after non-ear-nose-throat operations.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges Any age - NCT07700992Recruiting
A blood test to find pancreatic cancer early
This study uses stored blood samples from people at higher risk for pancreatic cancer (due to family history or certain pancreatic cysts) to see if a simple blood test can detect the disease early or help monitor it over time.
Milan, MIAges 18–99 - NCT03711890Recruiting
Advanced imaging to detect early pancreatic cancer during surgery
This study tests a special high-resolution camera that can see tiny details during pancreatic surgery to help doctors detect early-stage pancreatic cancer or precancerous growths called IPMNs. The goal is to improve how well surgeons can identify and remove diseased tissue.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04150042RecruitingPhase 1
Test of chemotherapy plus your own stem cells for metastatic cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a treatment approach using standard chemotherapy along with stem cells taken from you to treat metastatic pancreatic or breast cancer. It is mainly designed to check safety and find the best way to give the treatment, and it may offer an option for people whose cancer has spread.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 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+ - NCT05794048Recruiting
Study of blood and tumor features in liver and pancreatic cancers
This trial looks at a patient’s “metabolic profile” (how the body’s chemicals are used) in people with certain liver and pancreatic tumors. It may help doctors better understand these cancers and improve how they are evaluated for treatment.
ClichyAges 18 years+ - NCT05969860RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment vs clinic treatment for advanced cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares giving certain standard cancer infusions at home versus in a clinic. It may help people avoid clinic visits while still receiving the same cancer treatment safely.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06807437RecruitingPhase 3
Testing lanreotide before pancreas surgery to prevent leaks
This trial tests if a medicine called lanreotide, given before surgery, can prevent a common complication (pancreatic leak) after removing part of the pancreas. It is for people with pancreatic cancer or a growth that could become cancer who are scheduled for a specific type of pancreas surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 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.

How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07262957RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing complications after pancreatic surgery with a drug bundle
This trial tests whether giving a combination of three treatments—hydrocortisone (a steroid), octreotide (a drug that reduces digestive fluids), and a tissue patch—before and during pancreatic surgery can help prevent complications. It is for people with a very small pancreatic duct (3 mm or less) who are scheduled for pancreatic surgery.
AmsterdamAges 18 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pancreatic carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 149 recruiting pancreatic carcinoma 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 carcinoma 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 carcinoma 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.
