Testing a new paclitaxel formula for advanced pancreatic cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new form of the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel (called polymeric micellar paclitaxel) for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). It's for those who haven't had any prior treatment for their metastatic cancer, and aims to see if this drug can help control the cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 18 to 75 years old.
- Your pancreatic cancer has spread to other organs (metastatic) and has been confirmed by a biopsy or other lab test.
- You have not received any chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or radiation for your metastatic cancer.
- You are in generally good health (able to care for yourself, up and about more than half of the day).
- Your blood counts and kidney/liver function are within certain ranges (checked by a simple blood test).
- You or your partner agree to use effective birth control during the study and for 6 months after the last dose.

This trial tests a new form of paclitaxel (a chemotherapy drug) for metastatic breast cancer that is HER2-negative. It may be an option if your cancer has returned or not improved after 2 to 4 previous treatments.
This trial tests a new drug called IBI343 combined with standard chemotherapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (TQB2868 injection plus anlotinib capsules) compared to standard chemotherapy for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and has not been treated before.
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (penpulimab), a targeted therapy (anlotinib), and two chemotherapy drugs (nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine) as a first treatment for pancreatic cancer that has spread. It aims to see if this new combination works better than standard care.
This trial tests a new form of paclitaxel (a chemotherapy drug) wrapped in tiny fat bubbles called liposomes. It is given directly into an artery that feeds the tumor, which may deliver the drug more effectively to the cancer. The study is for people with advanced solid tumors that can be treated this way, such as stomach, liver, pancreatic, or lung cancers.
This trial tests paclitaxel given as tiny micelle particles for people whose cancer (pancreatic, bile duct, lung, stomach, esophagus, or breast) stopped responding to taxane chemotherapy or did not shrink. The goal is to see if this treatment can help when standard taxanes no longer work.
