Study how radiation affects tumor biology in cervical or pancreatic cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how radiotherapy changes the tumor environment, using lab samples collected during treatment. It may help researchers understand why radiation works differently for different people and could improve future treatment planning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning to receive radiation therapy for cervical cancer or pancreatic cancer
- You are at least 18 years old
- Your overall daily functioning is good enough (ECOG 0 to 2, meaning you can do most self-care)
- You can understand the study and are willing to sign the consent form
- Your care team can safely collect the required blood/tissue samples for research

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a highly focused radiation plan that uses MRI scans to adjust treatment during therapy. It’s for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have already completed a set course of chemotherapy and whose cancer hasn’t grown.
This study looks at how a planned form of palliative radiation therapy treats certain solid cancers that have spread outside the brain to larger soft-tissue areas. It may help shrink tumors and relieve symptoms, but it also asks you to meet specific safety and treatment-timing rules.
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.
This trial studies how well radiation therapy works for pancreatic cancer that is locally advanced (near important blood vessels) and cannot be removed with surgery. It may help shrink or control the cancer when surgery isn’t an option.
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 tests a radiation treatment that places tiny radioactive seeds directly into the tumor to treat advanced pancreatic cancer. It mainly focuses on safety and whether the treatment can be delivered effectively, especially for people who may not be able to have more chemotherapy or surgery.
