In solid cancers, some more aggressive tumor cells actively detach from the primary lesion and then travel through the circulating compartment to reach distant organs and form micro-metastases. These circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that have become disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) flourish in their new environments and may remain dormant for …
In patients with pancreatic cancer, older age, multiple comorbidities, frailty, malnutrition and poor functional status are common, especially in individuals receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. These characteristics represent potentially modifiable risk factors for poor postoperative outcomes. The goal of this clinical randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the extent to which a …
A single-arm, interventional study combining Immunotherapy and propranolol with/without chemotherapy and propranolol Pancreatic Cancer Durvalumab will be administered once every 4 weeks, in combination with gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel (day 1/8/15) and continuous propranolol. Tremelimumab will be given on day 1 of cycle 1, which may be repeated at the time …
The primary objective of this single arm, open label, phase II trial is to determine if axelopran use impacts cancer control in patients with advanced cancers of the lung, breast, pancreas, and prostate. The primary study period for assessing the primary aim is through day 43 (6 weeks). The main …
Pancreatic enucleation could preserve more healthy pancreatic tissues and functions with a low recurrence risk. However, conventional enucleation can cause significant intraoperative bleeding, especially in which tumors in the pancreatic head, neck, and uncinate process of pancreas, as these tissues are rich in blood supply, mainly including the abdominal trunk …
At present, radiopharmaceuticals targeting FAP have been developed for the diagnosis and treatment of various tumors. Considering the problems of fast tumor tissue clearance and short retention time in small molecule FAP inhibitors based on quinoline rings, this project optimized their ligands and developed a new FAP targeted technetium labeled …
Software "Lipidica" is intended to be used for processing data generated by the in-house in vitro diagnostic medical device for lipidomic testing for the purpose of screening Pancreatic cancer (PaC) in the population at high risk of this cancer due to familial risk, selected gene mutations or hereditary pancreatic diseases. …
Minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy remains one of the most challenging abdominal procedures. Safety and feasibility remain controversial when comparing minimally-invasive with open pancreaticoduodenectomy, especially for malignant tumors.The aim of this study was to compare minimally invasive and open pancreatoduodenectomy for short-term outcomes and long-term follow-up in a randomized trial.
Bio-repository to collect bio-specimens from patients with 1) pancreatic cysts and 2) patients at high risk, defined by family history and/or genetic mutations, for pancreatic cancer.
This study is about pancreatic cancer. If the diagnostic cancer is done at an early stage (\<2cm), the chances of recovery are very good. But the main problem is there is not any detections means for this cancer. Sadly, when there is a cancer diagnostic , it's already too late …
