Combining Tislelizumab and SX-682 for Treating Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
Official title: A Neoadjuvant Study of Tislelizumab and SX-682 for Resectable Pancreas Cancer
Run by The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio · NCT05604560 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if combining two treatments, tislelizumab and SX-682, can help shrink tumors in patients with newly diagnosed pancreatic cancer before they have surgery.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have received prior anti-pancreatic cancer therapy or have other malignancies that could interfere with the study may not benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of tislelizumab, an anti-PD-1 antibody, in combination with SX-682, a CXCR1/2 inhibitor, for patients with newly diagnosed and surgically resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Participants will undergo treatment before surgery to assess how well the combination works in shrinking tumors and improving surgical outcomes. The study aims to gather data on the clinical activity of this combination therapy in a Phase 2 setting.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could improve surgical outcomes and overall survival rates for patients with resectable pancreatic cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar immunotherapy approaches in pancreatic cancer, but this specific combination is novel.
