Intermittent Fasting for People at High Risk of Pancreatic Cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether eating within a limited time window each day (intermittent fasting) might help protect people who have a high risk of developing pancreatic cancer. Researchers will monitor participants through a clinic and have them track their eating patterns using an app.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether intermittent fasting can improve how your body releases and uses insulin if you have prediabetes or early type 2 diabetes. It may help your blood sugar control without using insulin.
This trial uses MRI and endoscopic ultrasound to look for early signs of pancreatic cancer in people who have a high risk due to their genes or family history. Finding it early may lead to better treatment options.
This study collects health information and stored samples (biospecimens) to learn more about pancreatic diseases, including cancer and early warning changes. It may help researchers understand who is at higher risk and improve future testing and care.
This early-phase trial studies a long-peptide vaccine designed for people with certain genetic changes that raise the risk of pancreatic cancer. The goal is to help your immune system recognize and respond to cancer-related changes before cancer develops.
This trial studies whether periods of intermittent fasting can help people with recurrent pancreatitis. It may be aiming to improve pancreas-related function and symptoms, especially in people with ongoing digestive enzyme problems.
This study looks for people at high risk for pancreatic cancer, either because of family history, certain genetic mutations, or concerning pancreatic cysts. Researchers want to follow you over time to find cancer early, when it's easier to treat.
