All recruiting trials (16)
-
AB801 with chemotherapy and immunotherapy for cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic cancer
This phase 1 study tests whether AB801 can be given safely with chemotherapy and immunotherapy in adults with border-line resectable, locally advanced, or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma or pancreatic cancer.
-
Surgery after tumor-shrinking treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This project will test whether doing surgery after at least four months of chemotherapy helps people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that was initially considered not removable live longer and feel better.
-
XER-001 (nasoduodenal amifostine) with SBRT for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether giving XER-001 through a nasoduodenal tube together with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is safe and helpful for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
-
Comparing NALIRIFOX to a modified gemcitabine/nab‑paclitaxel/cisplatin regimen for advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma
This compares NALIRIFOX to a modified gemcitabine/nab‑paclitaxel/cisplatin regimen to see if it helps people with untreated locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma live longer or have better tumor responses.
-
Adding panitumumab to chemotherapy for unresectable or metastatic KRAS wild-type pancreatic cancer
This trial will test whether giving the antibody panitumumab along with standard chemotherapy helps people with unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic KRAS wild-type pancreatic cancer live longer.
-
Cell-based gene therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer after chemotherapy
This study is testing a new cell-based gene therapy called RR001 to see if it can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer feel better after chemotherapy and possibly make them eligible for surgery.
-
Kinisoquin to prevent blood clots in people with advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial will test whether Kinisoquin can prevent blood clots in people starting chemotherapy for metastatic or locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
-
Adding acoustic cluster therapy to chemotherapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial will try adding Acoustic Cluster Therapy (PS101 plus ultrasound) to modified FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have not had prior treatment.
-
Comparing standard and prolonged chemotherapy before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This study is testing whether giving longer chemotherapy before surgery can help people with tough-to-treat pancreatic cancer live longer and have better outcomes.
-
PTM-101 treatment for pancreatic cancer
This study is testing a new treatment called PTM-101 combined with chemotherapy to see if it can help people with certain types of pancreatic cancer who haven't had treatment before.
-
High-dose radiation therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer after chemotherapy
This study tests whether high-dose radiation therapy can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer who responded well to chemotherapy feel better and live longer.
-
Chemotherapy sequence for pancreatic cancer treatment
This study is testing a new order of chemotherapy drugs to see if it helps people with hard-to-treat pancreatic cancer have their tumors completely removed through surgery.
-
Combining radiation and tumor treating fields for advanced pancreatic cancer
This study is testing if combining radiation therapy with a special device that delivers electric fields can help slow down tumor growth in people with advanced pancreatic cancer.
-
Implementation program for advanced pancreatic cancer care
This program is testing new ways to improve treatment and survival rates for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer in the Netherlands by using the best practices from around the world.
-
Assessing survival and quality of life in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how long people with advanced pancreatic cancer live and how their quality of life is affected while being treated at different hospitals in the Nordic region.
-
Sequential treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This study is testing a new combination of chemotherapy treatments for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer to see if it helps them live longer and better.
NIH-funded research (3)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Total Neoadjuvant Therapy for Borderline or Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
A multi-part treatment approach tests giving all chemotherapy and targeted radiotherapy before surgery to help patients with tough-to-remove pancreatic cancer become eligible for curative surgery.
-
Intensive pre-surgery treatment for borderline and locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This gives strong combination chemotherapy followed by high-dose targeted radiation before surgery for people with borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic cancer to shrink tumors and make surgery possible.
-
New treatment approach for difficult-to-surgically-remove pancreatic cancer
This study is looking at a new way to treat patients with tough-to-reach pancreatic cancer by giving them chemotherapy and radiation before surgery to help shrink the tumors and make surgery more successful.
