The purpose of the Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection (PRECEDE) Consortium is to conduct research on multiple aspects of early detection and prevention of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by establishing a multisite cohort of individuals with family history of PDAC and/or individuals carrying pathogenic/likely pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) in genes linked …
The purpose of this study is to compare the two approaches for monitoring pancreatic cysts. The study doctors want to compare more frequent monitoring vs less frequent monitoring in order to learn which monitoring method leads to better outcome for patients with pancreatic cysts.
This study evaluates individuals without pancreatic cancer, but who have been determined to be at higher-than-average lifetime risk of developing pancreatic cancer to help detect pancreatic cancer or other cancers at an earlier time when they might be more easily treated and cured.
The aim of the TAILOR-EUS study (Iconographic Registry of Bilio-Pancreatic Endoscopic Ultrasound Procedures) is to establish a clinical registry comprising images and videos generated during endoscopic procedures conducted for the investigation of pancreatic diseases (PD). The study will compile historical, pathological, and imaging data from approximately 12,000 patients (2,000 retrospectively …
Johns Hopkins clinical research office quality assurance group will monitor and audit this study at Johns Hopkins. The Sub Investigator at each site will be responsible for internal monitoring at their site.
Pancreatic cancer is difficult to diagnose early. By the time people have been diagnosed, the cancer has usually spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). The standard treatment is chemotherapy, but other treatments are needed to improve outcomes in people with pancreatic cancer. The first treatment that people usually …
In this study, the investigators aim to demonstration of relationship between triceps skinfold thickness and overall survival of pancreatic cancer, cholangiocarcinoma and GB cancer.
The purpose of this study is to develop a minimally invasive test to diagnose pancreatic cancer at early stages of disease and monitor response to treatment.
This study aims to facilitate discovery and validation of tests for early detection in subjects at high risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and to facilitate the use of state-of-the-art machine learning-based algorithms that utilize databases and images with the purpose of identifying early stages of pancreatic cancer, as well …
Thromboprophylaxis for pancreatic surgery can be commenced either preoperatively or postoperatively. Despite a clear trade-off between thrombosis and bleeding in pancreatic surgery patients, there is no international consensus when thrombosis prophylaxis should be commenced in patients undergoing pancreatic surgery. There are no prospective randomized trials in this field, and current …
