Official title: AI-Driven Early Detection of Cachexia in Pancreatic Cancer and Feasibility of Diet and Exercise Interventions

Run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute · NCT07249775 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This project will test an AI tool to spot early cancer-related weight loss and see if diet and exercise support are acceptable for people with newly diagnosed pancreatic cancer.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18) with histologically or clinically confirmed pancreatic exocrine cancer, ECOG 0-2, able to take oral nutrition, able to read and speak English, and likely to receive systemic therapy are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, currently receiving enteral or parenteral nutrition, or with medical conditions such as significant ascites that preclude accurate assessment may not receive benefit from the interventions tested.

What this trial studies

This observational effort combines retrospective records from the Florida Pancreas Collaborative with prospective enrollment of newly diagnosed pancreatic cancer patients at Moffitt Cancer Center. Researchers will validate a multimodal AI model that uses clinical, imaging, and lifestyle data to detect early cancer-associated cachexia. Enrolled participants will complete baseline lifestyle and symptom assessments, extended lifestyle monitoring, and a feasibility survey about diet and exercise interventions. The study will describe how well the AI predicts early weight and muscle loss and whether patients find the proposed nutritional and activity supports practical and acceptable.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the project could enable earlier detection of cachexia and support timely diet/exercise approaches that may preserve weight, strength, and quality of life.

How similar studies have gone: Related predictive-modeling work and nutrition/exercise programs for cancer cachexia have shown mixed but encouraging early results, while multimodal AI specifically applied to pancreatic cancer cachexia remains relatively novel.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥ 18 years
* Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of pancreatic exocrine malignancy (e.g.pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, acinar cell carcinoma, pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma, etc.) or clinical features highly suggestive of such malignancy with diagnostic confirmation anticipated during the screening or early study period.
* Presentation consistent with resectable, borderline resectable, local, or locally advanced, or metastatic disease
* May or may not have had surgery
* Treatment plan likely includes systemic therapy for pancreatic cancer
* ECOG performance status 0-2
* Able to tolerate oral intake and not currently receiving enteral or parenteral nutrition
* Able to read and speak English

Exclusion Criteria:

* Pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of enrollment
* Current use of tube feeding (enteral) or total parenteral nutrition
* Presence of ascites or other findings suggestive of decompensated disease
