Registry for Advanced Endoscopy
Observational registry including endoscopic diagnostic and therapeutic interventions in the gastrointestinal tract
Tissue Procurement for Gastric Cancer, Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST), Esophageal Cancer, Pancreas Cancer, Hepatocellular Cancer, Biliary Cancer, Neuroendocrine, Peritoneal Mesothelioma, Anal Cancer and Colorectal Cancer in Patients Undergoing Surgery or Biopsy
The purpose of this study is to collect and store normal and malignant tissue from patients with gastric cancer, GIST, esophageal cancer, pancreas cancer, hepatocellular cancer, biliary cancer, neuroendocrine, peritoneal mesothelioma, anal cancer and colorectal cancer, an estimated 50 to 100 of each tumor type. To collect and store blood …
Early-stage Detection of LIver, Biliary tRAct and pancReatic Cancers
LIBRARY is a prospective, multi-center, observational study aimed at detecting early liver, biliary tract, and pancreatic cancers by combining assays of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) methylation, serum protein, and microRNA.
AI-powered Early Detection for Pancreatic Cancer Via Non-contrast CT in Opportunistic Screening Cohort
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains a therapeutic challenge with 5-year survival rates of 13%, primarily attributable to advanced-stage diagnosis (AJCC Stage III/IV in >80% of cases). This prospective, observational, multi-center study will evaluate the performance of an AI-powered opportunistic screening system utilizing non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) acquired during routine clinical …
Identification of New Theranostic Biomarkers of Pancreatic Tumor Progression
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) are one of the main precursor lesions of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), a lethal disease predicted to become the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Western societies within a decade. The mechanisms underlying IPMN progression are poorly understood. The goal of IPMN management is …
ARGONAUT: Stool and Blood Sample Bank for Cancer Patients
ARGONAUT is a longitudinal, prospective, observational study that will enroll up to 5,000 advanced-stage cancer patients of diverse racial backgrounds to collect data used to develop precision microbiome medicines and for the identification of clinically actionable cancer-specific biomarkers to guide therapeutic decisions. Four types of solid tumor cancers will be …
UCSF PANC Cyst Registry
Pancreatic cysts are found incidentally on 15-50% of CT and MRIs for all indications and their prevalence is increasing. Many of these cysts may be precursors to pancreatic cancer, and thus pose a substantial risk, however, the vast majority are benign. Increased detection of pancreatic cysts provides an opportunity to …
Obtaining Solid Tumor Tissue From People Having Biopsy or Surgery for Certain Types of Cancer
Background Recent advances in cancer research have led to new therapies to treat the disease. It is important to continue these advances and discover new ones. To do that, researchers need tissue samples from solid tumors. This study will collect such samples from people already scheduled to have a procedure …
Artificial Intelligence-based Early Screening of Pancreatic Cancer and High Risk Tracing (ESPRIT-AI)
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most fatal malignancies with a 5-year survival rate of only ~6%[1]. The reasons for this high mortality rate can be attributed to several factors, of which perhaps the most important is delayed diagnosis due to vague symptoms and consequently missed opportunities for surgical resection. …
Determining Individualized Cancer Therapy in Pancreatic Cancer
This is a non-therapeutic exploratory observational precision oncology study designed to collect and analyze data that demonstrate the clinical efficacy and tolerability of personalized treatments based on molecular tumor profiling assessments (i.e., matched therapy) in adult pancreatic cancer patients. Patient medical records, obtained both retrospectively and prospectively, will be examined …
