Study changes in pancreatic cancer during treatment
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study follows how pancreatic cancer changes over time while you’re receiving treatment before surgery. It may help doctors understand how the cancer evolves and guide better future treatment choices.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re 18 years or older
- You are willing to sign informed consent
- Your imaging test (CT, MRI, or EUS) shows locally advanced pancreatic cancer
- You had EUS and a biopsy/assessment (EUS-TA) that found pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)
- You are currently receiving chemotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant chemotherapy)
- You are mainly followed at San Raffaele Hospital

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses small pancreatic cancer samples grown in the lab to understand which treatments may work best for people with pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers better “profile” tumors so standard care can be matched to the most effective options.
This trial studies metastatic pancreatic cancer by taking a small tissue sample and analyzing its genes. It may help doctors better understand which cancer subtypes patients have, which can guide future treatment choices.
This trial studies bacteria found inside pancreatic tumors to see if they can help diagnose or predict the course of the disease. You may be eligible if you have a suspected pancreatic cancer and need a special biopsy (EUS-FNB).
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).
This study looks at the bacteria living in your gut and pancreas to understand how they might affect pancreatic cancer and precancerous changes. It is for people who are already scheduled for an endoscopic procedure to look at or treat a pancreatic lesion.
This study will take a close-up look at your pancreatic tumor by using a sample from a biopsy to create a personal profile. The goal is to understand your cancer better and maybe find the best treatment for you.
