Chemo and radiation for advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a combined treatment of chemotherapy followed by a precise type of radiation therapy (SBRT) for people with pancreatic cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It is designed for those who have not yet started treatment for locally advanced disease.

This trial tests combining a type of precision radiation (SBRT) with an immunotherapy drug (zimberelimab) for patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink the tumor or control the cancer better.
This trial is testing a new way to treat pancreatic cancer that has spread to nearby tissues but not to distant organs. It uses a tailored plan that may include chemotherapy and possibly surgery. The goal is to see if this personalized approach helps people live longer and better.
This trial compares two different chemotherapy combinations, each paired with immunotherapy and radiation, as the first treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. It aims to see which combination works better.
This trial tests a combination of three chemotherapy drugs (mFOLFIRINOX) along with anlotinib (a targeted therapy) and sintilimab (an immunotherapy) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not had prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
This trial studies how well radiation therapy works for pancreatic cancer that is locally advanced (near important blood vessels) and cannot be removed with surgery. It may help shrink or control the cancer when surgery isn’t an option.
This trial tests a very focused type of radiation (SBRT) for people with pancreatic cancer that hasn't spread to other organs but can't be removed with surgery. It may be an option if you are medically unable to have surgery or choose not to.
