Test of fostamatinib with chemo before and after surgery for pancreatic cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests adding a new drug, fostamatinib, to standard chemotherapy before and after surgery for pancreatic cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if the combination helps reduce the chance of cancer coming back.

This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine plus TAMP) given before surgery for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and make surgery more successful.
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.
This trial tests adding surufatinib (a targeted therapy) to standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if the combination helps shrink or control the tumor better.
This trial tests a new drug called nuzefatide pevedotin for people with metastatic pancreatic cancer that has progressed after one prior treatment. The drug targets a protein called EphA2 found on some tumor cells and may slow tumor growth.
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.
This trial tests a new treatment, PTM-101, placed during a laparoscopy procedure for people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed with surgery. It aims to see if adding this treatment before standard chemotherapy helps improve outcomes.
