Testing pumitamig with chemotherapy for untreated pancreatic cancer
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+ - NCT06897644RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two chemotherapy strategies for advanced pancreatic cancer
This study compares two chemotherapy strategies for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not yet had treatment. The goal is to see if switching to a different chemotherapy combination (gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel) after initial treatment works better than staying on the original chemotherapy (modified FOLFIRINOX).
AvianoAges 18 years+ - NCT05132504RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery chemotherapy and immunotherapy for operable pancreatic cancer

Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06050317RecruitingPhase 2
Sintilimab plus chemo and radiation for inoperable pancreatic cancer
This trial combines the immunotherapy drug sintilimab with chemotherapy and radiation for people with inoperable locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have not received prior systemic treatment. The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors and improves outcomes.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06562192RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a radioactive drug for advanced pancreatic, lung, breast, and colorectal cancers
This trial tests a new radioactive drug (177Lu-NNS309) for people with advanced pancreatic, lung, breast, or colorectal cancer that has not responded to prior treatments. It aims to see if the drug can target and shrink tumors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT06065891Recruiting
Lymph node removal in pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial studies whether removing extra lymph nodes during surgery for pancreatic cancer can help find if the cancer has spread. It is for patients whose tumor is considered removable or borderline removable.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for unresectable pancreatic cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 167 recruiting unresectable pancreatic cancer 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 unresectable pancreatic cancer 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 unresectable pancreatic cancer 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.
