Resistance Exercise Combined With Protein Supplementation in People With Pancreatic Cancer: The RE-BUILD Trial
The purpose of this research is to determine whether a virtually supervised resistance exercise (RE) intervention combined with protein supplementation (PS) is feasible in pancreatic cancer patients initiating chemotherapy and if it will improve skeletal muscle mass. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are: Resistance training …
Proton Radiation for Unresectable, Borderline Resectable, or Medically Inoperable Carcinoma of the Pancreas
The prognosis for patients with localized pancreatic adenocarcinoma who are not surgical candidates is poor. Patients characterized as having "borderline resectable" disease treated with preoperative chemo-radiotherapy fair somewhat better - although many of these patients are not converted to resectability. It may be argued that intensification of local and regional …
Intraoperative Endoscopic Ultrasound for Pancreatic Cancer
Nowadays pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest oncological pathologies. The only effective curative tool is the surgery. Before the intervention, an endoscopic ultrasound is performed on the patient to carry out the biopsy of the main tumor. In this study, the echoendoscopie will be extended to lymph node staging …
Stereotactic Adaptive Radiation Therapy of Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer an Individualized Approach
This trial is a single-arm, prospective, multi-center clinical trial designed to demonstrate that stereotactic adaptive radiotherapy using an ablatively dosed (50Gy,5fx) for treatment of borderline-resectable, locally-advanced , or medically inoperable pancreatic adenocarcinoma will translate into a decreased toxicity. The study will evaluate GI toxicity, overall survival, local control, quality of …
Prospective Monocentric Clinical-biological Database
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) is a solid cancer with a very poor prognosis with overall survival, all stages combined, not exceeding 5% at 5 years. The incidence and number of deaths caused by this type of tumor have been steadily increasing for two decades. In the absence of therapeutic advances, PA …
The Value of Molecular Residual Disease Monitoring Based on ctDNA in Resected Pancreatic Cancer
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the value of molecular residual disease (MRD) monitoring based on ctDNA in resected pancreatic cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are prognostic value of baseline MRD; the role of MRD dynamic changes after treatment in guiding treatment. Peripheral blood …
Preoperative Fractionated Radiation Therapy Versus Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Resectable or Borderline Resectable, or Locally Advanced Type A Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Patients are randomized into two arms. Arm A patients will receive Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and Arm B patients with receive conventional concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Disposable Perfusion Phantom for Accurate DCE (Dynamic Contrast Enhanced)-MRI Measurement of Pancreatic Cancer Therapy Response
The goal of this study is to investigate whether the therapeutic response of pancreatic tumors can be accurately assessed using quantitative DCE-MRI, when the inter/intra-scanner variability is reduced using the Point-of-care Portable Perfusion Phantom, P4. The intra-scanner variability over time leads to errors in therapy monitoring, while the inter-scanner variability …
Pancreatic Cancer Evolution Upon Treatment
This project aims at evaluating the different subtypes of pancreatic cancer on EUS-tissue acquisition of pancreatic cancer patients, and their possible modifications throughout time. The study takes advantage of a systematic evaluation of pancreatic cancers through diagnostic EUS-guided fine needle biopsy (FNB) sampling of the mass performed during a restaging …
Modulation of the Gut Microbiome With Pembrolizumab Following Chemotherapy in Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
A multi-institutional, single arm pilot study of antibiotics and pembrolizumab, following chemotherapy for the treatment of surgically resectable pancreatic cancer.
