Study of exosomes in pancreatic cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at tiny particles called exosomes in pancreatic cancer. Researchers want to understand how exosomes may help the cancer grow, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have pancreatic cancer.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are willing to give written consent to take part.
- You can have an endoscopy (a procedure where a thin tube is passed down your throat) to collect a biopsy sample.
- You do not have any other cancer besides pancreatic cancer.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 study is looking at blood or tissue samples from people with pancreatic cancer and from those without it. The goal is to find ways to detect the cancer earlier.
This study looks at how tiny particles in blood (“exosomes”) carry signals between cells in people having pancreatic surgery. The goal is to understand these signals in different pancreatic conditions and treatment situations, which may help future care.
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 looks at “biomarkers” (test signals in tissue or blood) in people with pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers understand the disease better and find ways to predict or track it.
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).
