Pre- and Post-operative TEG Indices in Patients With or Without Adenocarcinoma Undergoing Surgical Resection
The investigators hypothesize that abnormalities in thromboelastography (TEG) parameters in patients with liver, pancreas, biliary, esophageal, colorectal, and lung adenocarcinoma can serve as biomarkers for oncologic disease burden, cancer recurrence and overall survival as well as thrombotic and hemorrhagic post-operative complications. The investigators further hypothesize that there is histologic pathology …
Construction of Molecular Diagnostic Marker Model for Pancreatic Cystic Tumors Based on Pancreatic Cystic Fluid Samples
The goal of this observational study is to test in patients with cystic tumor of pancreas. The main questions it aims to answer are: Screening of molecular diagnostic markers for pancreatic cystic tumors by cfDNA methylation sequencing of pancreatic cystic fluid and proteomic assays to distinguish benign from malignant and …
MRE for Diagnosis of Pancreatic Masses
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) accounts for 85-95% of pancreatic cancer and is one of the deadliest tumors in the world, with a survival rate of less than 8%, and identifying key prognostic or predictive factors facilitates risk stratification and prospective assessment in clinical trials. The extracellular matrix (ECM) surrounding PDAC …
A New Clinical Pathway for Personalized Management of Borderline Resectable and Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
NORPACT-3 is a nationwide, Norwegian single arm prospective study that evaluates the resectability rates and survival in patients with borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic cancer who received primary chemotherapy. Eligible patients are treated with primary chemotherapy possibly followed by surgical exploration and resection. All Norwegian centres performing pancreatic surgery …
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte Ratio and CA 19.9 as Predictors of Perineural Invasion in Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer has an incidence of 1,401,450 new cases diagnosed annually worldwide and is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in Spain. This disease is associated with a poor prognosis, reflected by a 5-year survival rate of less than 5% when all stages are grouped together. Several prognostic factors …
Preoperative EUS Elastography for Pancreatic Texture and POPF Prediction After PD
This prospective study evaluates whether preoperative endoscopic ultrasound elastography (EUS-E) can predict pancreatic texture during surgery and risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) in 100 patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. EUS-E measures pancreatic stiffness preoperatively. Intraoperative texture ("soft" or "hard") is assessed by surgeons blinded to EUS-E results. POPF is graded using …
Long-term Observational Study to Evaluate the DFS and OS of Adjuvant FOLFIRINOX Regimen in Pancreatic Cancer Patients
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adjuvant FOLFIRINOX regimen in pancreatic cancer patients after curative surgery.
Lipoprotein a is an Independent Risk Factor for Overall Survival in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer: a Propensity Score Matching Analysis
Background: This study aims to assess the prognostic significance of serum lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] levels on overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) in individuals diagnosed with pancreatic cancer through the utilization of propensity score matching (PSM). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinicopathological data of …
Solid Tumor Analysis for HLA Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH) and Apheresis for CAR T- Cell Manufacturing
Objective To collect information on how often a solid tumor cancer might lose the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) by next generation sequencing and perform apheresis to collect and store an eligible participant's own T cells for future use to make CAR T-Cell therapy for their disease treatment. Design This is …
Tumor Cell and DNA Detection in the Blood, Urine, and Bone Marrow
Patients with resectable solid primary cancers and even limited number of metastases are potentially curable. However, most patients develop recurrences despite surgery. Also, early detection of lung cancer with low dose CT screening may cure patients at an early stage. Circulating and disseminated tumor cell (CTC/DTC) and circulating cell-free (cf) …
