Metabolism and surroundings in pancreatic cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how the metabolism of pancreatic cancer cells affects their surroundings. It uses a biopsy (removing a small sample of tissue from a tumor in the pancreas, liver, or lung) to learn more about the cancer and guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have metastatic pancreatic cancer that needs a biopsy as part of your regular care
- You have not had chemotherapy for this cancer (either for the first time or for a relapse that has spread)
- You are well enough to receive chemotherapy (ECOG score less than 2)
- You are being treated at the Institut Paoli-Calmettes in France
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or under legal guardianship

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a method that analyzes your tumor's genes and grows a mini-tumor in a dish to find which drugs might work best for your metastatic pancreatic cancer. It aims to improve treatment choices by using these personalized tests.
This study collects medical and lab information from adults with pancreatic cancer to help researchers understand care and outcomes. You may be asked for follow-up visits and basic data, and it may be used to improve future treatments.
This research study looks at how your body's chemistry, immune system, and gut bacteria interact during treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Researchers will collect blood and stool samples to analyze these factors, hoping to better understand responses to therapy.
This study looks at people with non-metastatic, difficult-to-operate pancreatic cancer to better understand how treatment is selected and adjusted at different stages. It may help by testing a “dynamic” approach to assessment over time, before and alongside planned treatment.
This trial studies metastatic pancreatic cancer by taking a small tissue sample and analyzing its genes. It may help doctors better understand which cancer subtypes patients have, which can guide future treatment choices.
This study looks at advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer patients and uses stored tumor tissue to learn what may predict treatment outcomes. You may be able to join if you have had limited prior chemotherapy and can provide an archived tissue sample.
