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+ - NCT05727020Recruiting
Breath test study for pancreatic cancer and related conditions
This study checks whether breathing out certain chemicals (volatile organic compounds) can help identify pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (pancreatic cancer) or related pancreas problems. You may qualify if you’re an adult with suspected/confirmed pancreatic conditions and can safely take part in breath testing or surgery-related tissue collection.
LondonAges 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06141031RecruitingPhase 1
TTI-101 plus radiation for borderline or locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug (TTI-101) combined with targeted radiation (SBRT) for people with pancreatic cancer that is not removable by surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink tumors that are borderline resectable or locally advanced.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 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+ - NCT06423326RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a three-drug chemotherapy combination (gemcitabine, cisplatin, and nab-paclitaxel) given before surgery for people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed or is on the edge of being removable. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve surgery outcomes.
