This trial tests an experimental drug called pumitamig combined with standard chemotherapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread and has not been treated yet. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective.
Bedford ParkAges 18 years+ - NCT07444541RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ANO31905 plus chemo for CLDN18.2-positive pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ANO31905 added to standard chemotherapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has a specific protein called CLDN18.2 on its cells. The study aims to see if the combination works better than chemo alone.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07090499RecruitingPhase 1
Study of PF-08046876 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new medicine, PF-08046876, for people with advanced cancers of the bladder, lung, head and neck, esophagus, or pancreas. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works against these cancers.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02361320Recruiting
CT scan study for pancreatic or liver bile cancer
This study looks at how CT scans (detailed X-ray pictures) help diagnose pancreatic cancer or hepatobiliary (liver/bile duct) cancers. It may help your care team better decide what’s going on and plan next treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07681050RecruitingPhase 2
Phosphate for acute pancreatitis
This trial tests if giving phosphate through a vein can help people with acute pancreatitis. It's for adults who come to the emergency room with pancreatitis and can start treatment within 24 hours of being admitted to the hospital.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05799274RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a new PET imaging drug for cancers
This Phase 1 study tests how safe RAD301 is and how it behaves in the body when given for PET imaging in healthy volunteers and people with certain cancers. It may help doctors learn whether this imaging drug can clearly show cancer areas and be tolerated well.
Princeton, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07707609Recruiting
Pain and brain changes in chronic pancreatitis
This study looks at how chronic pancreatitis pain affects the nervous system and mental health. It aims to understand pain better and may help develop new ways to manage it.
Hyderabad, TelanganaAges 18–60 - NCT07707531RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Trial of radioactive drug for gastric and pancreatic cancer
This study tests a radioactive drug that targets a protein called Claudin 18.2 found on some stomach and pancreatic cancer cells. Researchers will track where the drug goes in your body and how it exits, to see if it's a safe and effective way to deliver radiation directly to tumors.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT03099850Recruiting
Studying chronic pancreatitis using follow-up tests
This study follows people with chronic pancreatitis to learn more about the disease and how to better diagnose it. You may have research-related scans or procedures and will be asked to stay in follow-up over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT03218345Recruiting
Endoscopy-guided burn treatment for certain pancreatic tumors
This trial studies an endoscopy-guided procedure that aims to treat certain pancreatic tumors using a targeted heat “burn.” It may help people who have a pancreatic tumor but cannot safely have surgery, or who prefer a non-surgical approach.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT03250078Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer screening for people at high genetic risk
This study offers pancreatic cancer screening for people with strong family history or certain inherited gene changes. It may help find pancreatic cancer earlier, when treatment may be more effective.
Norwalk, ConnecticutAges 50–90 - NCT03311776Recruiting
Study blood and tissue markers in pancreatic cancer
This study looks at “biomarkers” (test signals in tissue or blood) in people with pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers understand the disease better and find ways to predict or track it.
HerlevAges 19 years+ - NCT03322995RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant chemo study for resectable pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a chemotherapy plan given before surgery (called “neoadjuvant” treatment) for people with pancreatic adenocarcinoma that looks resectable or borderline resectable on scans. The goal is to see how well this adaptive chemotherapy approach works and whether it can improve outcomes before an operation.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT03434392Recruiting
Testing pain-sensing to predict treatment response in chronic pancreatitis
This study uses a special pain-testing method to better predict how people with chronic pancreatitis-related pain (or similar conditions) will respond to treatment. It may help doctors choose therapies that work better for each person’s type of pain.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03492151Recruiting
Scans pancreatic cysts during a biopsy procedure
This trial tests a special camera (confocal laser endomicroscopy) used during an ultrasound-guided needle biopsy to help tell what type of pancreatic cyst is present. It may help doctors decide faster whether surgery is needed.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03492671RecruitingPhase 2
Two chemotherapy drugs plus radiation before pancreatic surgery
This trial tests whether giving two already-approved chemotherapy drugs and radiation before surgery works better for localized pancreatic cancer. It’s meant for people whose cancer looks removable by surgery and who haven’t had prior pancreatic cancer treatment.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03498326RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine plus celecoxib after pancreatic surgery
This trial tests whether adding celecoxib to gemcitabine chemotherapy after complete (R0) pancreatic tumor removal can lower the chance the cancer comes back. It may help people who have had successful surgery but still need anti-cancer treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–90 - NCT03547232RecruitingPhase 4
Indomethacin given early to treat acute pancreatitis
This trial tests whether taking indomethacin (an anti-inflammatory medicine) early can improve outcomes in people with acute pancreatitis. You might be eligible if your pancreatitis is diagnosed soon and you meet specific lab, imaging, and safety requirements.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT03579836RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test BEY1107 plus gemcitabine for pancreatic cancer
This early study tests whether BEY1107 given alone or with gemcitabine can be used safely and may help shrink pancreatic cancer tumors. It mainly looks at safety, side effects, and signs of effectiveness in people with pancreatic ductal cancer.
SeoulAges 20–80 - NCT03747588Recruiting
Laparoscopic versus open surgery for pancreas cancer
This study compares two ways of doing pancreaticoduodenectomy (a major surgery to remove parts of the pancreas and nearby tissue): minimally invasive (often smaller incisions) versus open surgery. It may help clarify which approach works best when the cancer looks potentially removable.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT03785743Recruiting
Compare keyhole vs open surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial compares two ways of doing surgery for pancreatic cancer: keyhole (small cuts) versus open surgery (one larger cut). It’s meant to see which approach works better for people who are well enough for either option.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT03915262Recruiting
Active Crohn’s patients with possible pancreas enzyme problems
This study looks at how often people with active Crohn’s disease also have trouble digesting food because the pancreas may not release enough enzymes (exocrine pancreatic insufficiency). It may help doctors better recognize this hidden problem in people whose Crohn’s is currently active.
Pierre-BéniteAges 18 years+ - NCT04011982Recruiting
Study of tissue analysis after pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial studies and analyzes tissue samples from people who had surgery for exocrine pancreatic (pancreatic duct-type) cancer. It may help researchers better understand the disease biology and improve future care.
