This trial studies Nalirifox (chemotherapy) given together with radiation therapy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that has not spread to distant organs. It may help shrink the cancer and improve local control, especially when surgery is not an option right now.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05723107RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an endoscopic treatment for pancreatic cancer that can't be removed
This early-phase trial is testing a new endoscopic (from inside the stomach) approach for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that is locally advanced and cannot be removed with surgery. It may help some people who have already tried first chemotherapy and still have a tumor confined to the pancreas area (no spread).
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05788744Recruiting
Testing DNA-based blood tests in early pancreatic cancer
This study looks at DNA signals from blood tests (so-called “ctDNA” and another type of DNA test) in people with early-stage pancreatic cancer. It aims to see whether these tests can help track cancer after surgery and check for signs of return.
AalborgAges Any age - NCT05764720Recruiting
Personalized targeted radiation for borderline pancreatic cancer
This study tests a personalized form of stereotactic radiation therapy (high-precision radiation planned to fit your tumor) after you’ve had some chemotherapy. It aims to treat pancreatic tumors while limiting exposure to nearby healthy organs.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05759923RecruitingPhase 1
Study of OATD-02 for hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early (first-in-human) study tests whether OATD-02 is safe and tolerable, and whether it shows any anti-cancer activity. It is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that have already been treated with the standard options.
Bydgoszcz, Kuyavian-Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT05746182Recruiting
Genetic testing program for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
This study offers genetic (inherited) testing for people with pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms. The goal is to see who may have a genetic predisposition, which can help guide medical care and family risk.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05714111Recruiting
Registry for pancreatic cancer patients and people being evaluated
This is a research registry that collects information from adults with suspected or diagnosed pancreatic cancer. It may help doctors better understand the disease and improve care over time.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05740111Enrolling by invitation
Watching early for pancreatic cancer in people at high risk
This study tests a personalized “watch and check” plan to help find pancreatic cancer as early as possible in people with a strong family history or certain inherited gene changes. It may help doctors tailor how often you’re monitored based on your risk.
OsloAges 30–80 - NCT04570943RecruitingPhase 2
Pancreatic cancer treatment: chemo first, then targeted MRI-guided radiation
This Phase 2 trial tests giving specific chemotherapy in sequence, then using MRI-guided focused radiation to treat locally advanced, non-removable pancreatic cancer. It may help shrink or control the tumor while aiming radiation more precisely using MRI.
Marseille, Bouches-du-RhôneAges 18–75 - NCT05663515Recruiting
Checks pancreatic cancer risk after starting exenatide in type 2 diabetes
This study looks at whether starting exenatide (a type 2 diabetes medicine) is linked to a higher or lower risk of pancreatic cancer compared with other similar diabetes medicines. It uses people’s prescription and medical record history to compare risks over time.
CopenhagenAges 18–99 - NCT05252754RecruitingPhase 3
Medicines to prevent pancreas swelling after ERCP
This Phase 3 study tests whether putting an anti-inflammatory medicine into the rectum (indomethacin) plus taking an immune-suppressing pill (tacrolimus) works better than using the two medicines in a different combination to prevent pancreatitis after an ERCP procedure. If you qualify, you may be assigned to one of the treatment options to lower your risk of post-ERCP pancreas inflammation.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05630989Recruiting
Registry for outcomes in KRAS G12R pancreatic cancer on MEK therapy
This study keeps a registry (a secure database) to track how people with advanced pancreatic cancer and a KRAS G12R mutation do after treatment with a MEK inhibitor–based combination. It helps doctors understand which outcomes matter most for this specific genetic type of cancer.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05098197RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of TIL cell therapy for advanced liver, bile, or pancreas cancer
This trial studies a treatment called TIL therapy, which uses your own immune cells grown from a tumor sample, to treat advanced cancers of the liver/bile ducts or pancreas. It’s mainly for people whose standard treatments have already failed (or none exist), and who can safely provide tumor tissue for the cell preparation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05482893RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of spevatamig for advanced gastrointestinal cancers
This trial tests a new drug called spevatamig (PT886) alone or with other treatments for advanced stomach, gastric, pancreatic, bile duct, or colorectal cancers. The goal is to see if it helps slow or stop cancer growth.
