Effectiveness of the Transversus Abdominis Plane Block Associated With Opioid Spinal Anesthesia on Analgesia After Cephalic Duodenopancreatectomy
Duodenopancreatectomy is a major, risky surgery that causes significant post-operative pain. Optimizing perioperative analgesia remains a challenge, and requires multimodal management, notably involving locoregional analgesic techniques. The thoracic epidural helps reduce perioperative pain, as well as certain postoperative complications. However, epidural analgesia is not without effects, and the data remains …
Role of Exosomes in Pancreatic Cancer Progression
The present pilot study is set up with the objective of identifying circulating markers in the biological fluids (blood and urine) of subjects with pancreatic carcinoma and their association with disease stage, to evaluate their potential use as predictive and diagnostic markers for this tumor of difficult early diagnosis and …
Multi-omics Model for Pancreatic Cancer Screening Using cfDNA
This is a prospective case-control study, aiming at developing a cell free DNA (cfDNA) multi-omics precise diagnostic model for screening of pancreatic cancer.
Pharmacotyping of Pancreatic Patient-derived Organoids
EUS-FNB samples will be used for organoid cultures, which will be co-cultured with cancer associated fibroblasts derived from the surrounding stroma of the lesion. The organoid cultures will be used for pharmacotyping using relevant chemotherapeutic agents used in the clinic, and the organoid's response compared with the patient's response.
The Value of 68Ga-grazytracer PET in Monitoring Responses to Immunotherapy of Pancreatic Cancer.
This study aims to investigate the value of 68Ga-grazytracer in predicting the efficacy of immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer.
Assessment of the Prognosis of Pancreatic Cancer Patients Using 3D MRE
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), representing 85-95% of pancreatic cancers, is a highly lethal malignancy with a dismal 5-year survival rate below 8%. Emerging evidence highlights the critical need for non-invasive imaging biomarkers to stratify prognosis and guide therapeutic strategies. Notably, the biomechanical properties of PDAC-associated extracellular matrix (ECM), characterized by …
CtDNA-guided Maintenance Therapy in Pancreatic Cancer
This study aims to conduct a large-scale prospective clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine monotherapy as maintenance treatment following standard adjuvant chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus capecitabine) in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer, and to analyze whether ctDNA-MRD testing can guide the selection of postoperative maintenance therapy.
A Prospective Study of Liquid Biopsy for Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection
This study is a multi-center, observational study aiming at developing a machine learning-based early detection model using prospectively collected liquid biopsy samples from clinically-annotated individuals.
Microbiota and Pancreatic Cancer Cachexia
This monocentric study aims at evaluating the effects of fecal microbiota transplantation from newly diagnosed cachectic and non-cachectic pancreatic cancer patients, and healthy volunteers on several cachexia-related parameters of germ-free mice.
Interrogation of Exosome-mediated Intercellular Signaling in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer
The purpose of this study is to isolate and analyze exosomes, which are tiny carriers of important proteins and nucleic acids that serve as messenger systems in the blood and tissue. Blood and tissue from patients with pancreatic cancer will be compared with blood and tissue from patients with noncancerous …
