Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor risk factors and prognosis
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors behave differently in younger versus older people. It aims to find better ways to predict outcomes and guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor from a biopsy or surgery.
- You cannot have a more aggressive type called pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma.
- You must have complete medical records available.
- You cannot have received any cancer treatment before this study.
- You cannot have any other current or past cancers.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether giving chemotherapy drugs (capecitabine and temozolomide) after surgery can help prevent pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors from coming back. You're eligible if your tumor was completely removed and shows intermediate to high risk of recurrence.
This study examines how doctors treat gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (rare slow-growing cancers of the stomach, pancreas, or intestines) and how patients respond. Researchers will review medical records from 2018–2025 to understand which treatments work best and help improve care for future patients.
This trial tests whether surgically removing as much of the tumor as possible (debulking) is better than not doing surgery for people with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. It aims to see if this approach can improve outcomes.
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (sorafenib and gefitinib) for people with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) that have continued to grow after other treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the tumor.
This study offers genetic (inherited) testing for people with pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms. The goal is to see who may have a genetic predisposition, which can help guide medical care and family risk.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.
