Predicting Pancreatic Cancer Treatment Outcomes Using Medical Images and Data
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study builds a computer model to predict how well pancreatic cancer patients will respond to surgery and what their long-term outcomes might be. Researchers use CT scans, blood tests, and medical records from patients who had pancreatic cancer surgery to teach the model to recognize patterns that help predict outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (confirmed by biopsy or cell examination)
- You had surgery for pancreatic cancer at one of the participating hospitals
- The hospital has your CT scan images from before and after surgery
- Your medical records include blood test results from before and after surgery, as well as pathology reports from your surgery

This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help doctors make better decisions for people with suspected pancreatic conditions. If you are already getting a special CT scan, the AI will analyze the images to see if it can improve diagnosis and treatment planning.
This study is testing a computer program called PANDA that looks at routine CT scans of the chest or belly to check the pancreas. If you have already had a CT scan that includes your pancreas and it was a clear picture, you may be able to help improve this AI tool.
This study looks at MRI scans, computer-extracted imaging features, and blood/“liquid biopsy” tests after FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy to predict whether surgery can fully remove pancreatic cancer. It may help your care team choose the best next step—whether surgery is likely to be possible and how to plan it.
This study uses data from patients with pancreatic conditions and healthy people to improve care through computer analysis. It may help researchers develop better tools for diagnosis and treatment.
This study looks at how medical images and lab samples can predict which pancreatic cysts or tumors are more likely to be dangerous. If you are being evaluated for a pancreatic problem and haven’t started pancreas treatment, your scans and samples may help researchers improve risk prediction.
This study creates a large database of real pancreatic cancer cases to help train a computer model. If you had pancreatic cancer treated in this hospital with complete medical records, you might be able to join.
