Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT07562152RecruitingPhase 3
Atebimetinib Plus Gemcitabine/Nab-Paclitaxel for New Pancreatic Cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—atebimetinib (a new targeted therapy), gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel (two standard chemotherapy drugs)—as a first treatment for pancreatic cancer that has spread beyond the pancreas. The goal is to see if adding atebimetinib helps patients live longer and feel better.
Pinehurst, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07644559RecruitingPhase 2
VS-7375 for KRAS G12D pancreatic cancer
This study tests a new drug called VS-7375, combined with cetuximab, for pancreatic cancer patients whose tumors have a specific genetic mutation called KRAS G12D. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and help patients live longer.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06048484RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for localized pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a combination of drugs for people with localized pancreatic cancer who have already completed 8 cycles of modified FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if adding these drugs after chemo and radiation helps improve outcomes.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07252232RecruitingPhase 3
A pill to prevent pancreatic cancer recurrence after surgery
This trial tests an experimental daily pill, daraxonrasib, in people with pancreatic cancer that has been surgically removed. It’s for those who also had chemotherapy and have a specific DNA change called a RAS mutation. The goal is to see if the pill helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06937177RecruitingPhase 2
Testing mifomelatide to help maintain weight during chemo
This trial tests an investigational drug called mifomelatide (TCMCB07) to see if it can help people with newly diagnosed colorectal or pancreatic cancer maintain a healthy weight while receiving certain types of chemotherapy. You would give yourself a daily injection under the skin.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03977233RecruitingPhase 2
Biopsies and FOLFIRINOX for non-metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at different types (subtypes) of pancreatic tumors in people treated with FOLFIRINOX, a chemotherapy. It requires tumor biopsies before and after treatment to see how the tumor changes, which may help doctors better match treatments in the future.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT04900818RecruitingPhase 1
Givastomig for advanced solid cancers, including gastric and pancreas
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and effective givastomig (TJ033721) is for advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It may help people whose cancer has grown despite standard treatment, or—if in the combination parts—specific cancers that meet certain lab test and tumor-marker requirements.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05968326RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus new vaccines versus chemo alone after pancreatic surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding two study medicines (an immune-based vaccine treatment plus atezolizumab) to standard chemo helps prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery. It compares the combination against standard chemo alone, looking at safety and how well it prevents relapse.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06040541RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RMC-9805 for KRAS G12D solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental pill (RMC-9805) for people with solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12D mutation. It's for those who have already tried other treatments and need new options.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06445062RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of new RAS inhibitors for GI solid tumors
This trial tests new drugs that target specific RAS mutations in advanced gastrointestinal cancers, like pancreatic or colorectal cancer. It aims to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05482893RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Spevatamig for advanced stomach, pancreas, or bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Spevatamig (PT886), alone or with different chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy combinations, for people with certain advanced stomach, pancreatic, or bile duct cancers. The goal is to see if it shrinks tumors and is safe.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06835569RecruitingPhase 1
ALTA3263 for advanced KRAS-mutated solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental pill called ALTA3263 for adults with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS mutation. It's for people who have already tried other treatments or can't take them.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06922591RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TNG462 for pancreatic and lung cancer with MTAP loss
This trial tests a new drug called TNG462, alone or combined with other drugs, for people with advanced pancreatic or non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have a specific genetic change (loss of MTAP and a RAS mutation). It aims to see if TNG462 is safe and works better than current treatments.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07522073RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy with or without KRAS inhibitor for pancreatic cancer
This study tests whether adding a new drug called INCB161734 to standard chemotherapy helps people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has a specific genetic change (KRAS G12D mutation). You would be randomly assigned to receive either chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy plus the new drug.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05431270RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug that targets CD73, alone or with immunotherapy
This early-stage study tests mavrostobart (an anti-CD73 antibody) to see what dose is safe and whether it can help shrink tumors. It’s studied by itself and also with a PD-1 immune therapy or chemotherapy, depending on your cancer type and prior treatments.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06999187RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DR-0202 for advanced solid tumors after multiple treatments
This trial tests a new drug, DR-0202, for people with certain advanced cancers that have not responded to at least two prior treatments. It may be an option if standard treatments are no longer working.

What taking part in a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (pdac) study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
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.
