The Role of MicroRNA in the Diagnosis, Prognosis and Response to Treatment in Pancreatic Cancer
Aberrant miRNA production has been linked to a wide range of human cancers and shown to play important roles in their genesis and growth. These miRNA can be detected in the blood and tumors of patients with cancer. The investigators hypothesize that the detection of certain miRNAs present in the …
Prospectively Defining Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Subtypes by Comprehensive Genomic Analysis
Researchers are looking for better ways of understanding and treating pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to see how useful it is to look for changes and characteristics in your genes (molecules that contain instructions for the development and functioning of the cells) and the genes within the …

Validation of a miRNA Panel to Optimize Treatment Response in Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer (mirPANC 2)
This study is being conducted to better understand how pancreatic cancer behaves during treatment and how we can improve methods for monitoring disease progression. The research aims to determine whether small molecules present in the blood, called miRNAs, can help doctors assess whether the treatment is working or needs adjustment. …
Prospective Observational Trial to Evaluate Quality of Life After Stereotactic Ablative Radiation Therapy in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Prospective single arm, single center observational study to evaluate Quality of Life (Qol) after stereotactic body radiotherapy for patients with hepatocellular cancer. Patients will receive work-up, treatment and follow-up exclusively as routinely done except additional quality of life measurements. Qol will be measured by standardized and validated EORTC questionaires at …
Pancreatic Cancer and Diabetes Mellitus
The goal of this observational study is to learn about post-surgery of pancreatic cancer diabetes mellitus.The main questions it aims to answer are: Are the incident rates of glucose metabolic disorders (pre-diabetes and diabetes mellitus) after pancreatic cancer of different etiologies the same? Are alterations in endocrine and exdocrine secretory …
Volatile Organic Compounds for the Assessment of Liver Disease
This study aims to determine whether a breath test could be used for early detection of hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients who are attending for a planned liver outpatient services or investigations will be approached to provide a breath sample. Multi platform mass spectrometry analysis will be performed …
Clinical Application of PET Imaging Targeting MSLN in Malignant Tumors
The project aims to perform integrated PET/MR or PET/CT visualization of patients with clinically suspected or confirmed pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, lung adenocarcinoma and other malignant tumors with high MSLN expression and healthy volunteers, using targeted MSLN-specific imaging agents (taking [68Ga]Ga-NOTA-MSLN antibody fragment as an example), to achieve the following …
OSPREY is a Post-market, Global, Multicentre, Observational, Prospective Registry.
The OSPREY Patient Registry has been developed to collect and assess the performance and safety of the OncoSil™ device when used within the approved indication of unresectable, locally advanced pancreatic cancer, in combination with gemcitabine-based chemotherapy, within a real-world observational registry. The Registry data will provide both complementary and contemporary …
Perioperative Energy Expenditure in Major Liver Resection
Rationale: Complication rates after major liver resections remain as high as 43%. Many initiatives have been taken to reduce postoperative morbidity. As such, prehabilitation programmes are increasingly used for patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Improvement of aerobic fitness has been proven to reduce complication rates, especially in high-risk patients (those …
