Investigational virus injection for advanced pancreatic cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism, Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests a new treatment that uses a virus to attack tumor cells directly. It is for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has not responded to standard therapy. The virus is injected into a tumor, and the goal is to see if it can shrink the cancer or slow its growth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 75 years old.

This early-phase trial tests a personalized cancer vaccine made from your tumor, along with pembrolizumab, to help the immune system attack advanced pancreatic cancer. It may be an option if your cancer has specific immune “targets” and if you meet several health, lab, and infection requirements.
This Phase 1 trial tests VG161, a study medicine, given by injection into liver or nearby tumors for people with advanced primary liver cancer that has not responded to standard treatment (or there is no standard option). The goal is to find a safe dose and see how the tumors respond.
This trial tests a new cell therapy (BGT007H) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has not responded to earlier treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help shrink or control the cancer.
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine made from your own tumor's unique markers (neoantigens). It is for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread or come back, and who have had limited or no prior chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this vaccine can help the immune system fight the cancer.
This trial tests a new medicine called VG161 for people with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (a type of bile duct cancer) that has stopped responding to or could not be tolerated after at least one prior treatment. It is given by injection into the tumor, and the study wants to see if it can help shrink or control the cancer.
This trial tests a new immunotherapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It may be an option if you have already tried at least one previous treatment or if you have not had any treatment yet, depending on the study group.
