Recruiting studies
- NCT07033689RecruitingEarly Phase 1

New drug combo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ONT01 combined with two standard chemo drugs (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to first treatment. The goal is to see if this new combination can help control the cancer.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06892054RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted therapy plus chemo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This study tests a new targeted drug called sotorasib combined with standard chemotherapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
Avignon, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06825546RecruitingPhase 2
Icaritin plus chemo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new combination of a plant-based drug (icaritin) and two chemotherapy drugs (AG) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not had treatment before. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06843551RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new immunotherapy combo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial is testing two immunotherapy drugs (balstilimab and botensilimab) to see if they can shrink tumors in people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has worsened after at least one prior treatment. If you have microsatellite stable (MSS) disease, you may be eligible.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06831136RecruitingPhase 2
Endoscopic ultrasound ablation with immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a procedure that uses sound waves to heat and destroy part of the tumor, combined with an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda) that helps your immune system fight the cancer. It is for people with pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06821997RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy before surgery for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (NALIRIFOX) given before surgery to shrink the tumor in people with a specific type of pancreatic cancer. The goal is to make surgery more effective and improve outcomes.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06790602RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab plus gemcitabine for metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (cemiplimab) and chemotherapy (gemcitabine) for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It is for those whose tumors have specific genetic changes (in the SWI/SNF genes) and have only had one prior treatment that was not immunotherapy.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06595160Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 230 recruiting pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma 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 ductal adenocarcinoma 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 ductal adenocarcinoma 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.
