This is a multi-center, non-randomized, single-arm, open-label, phase Ib, dose escalation/dose expansion study of PTM-101 when combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy for the treatment of treatment-naïve subjects with borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel RAS(ON) inhibitor compared to standard(s) of care (SOC) treatment.
This is an open-label Phase I/Ib dose-escalation, dose-expansion clinical trial of the safety, pharmacokinetics and clinical activity of ProAgio combined with gemcitabine and nab paclitaxel (G-nP) in previously untreated subjects with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether using the chemotherapy regimen NALIRIFOX in combination with ablative dose radiation therapy (AD-XRT) and the standard chemotherapy drug capecitabine is an effective treatment approach for people with locally advanced or borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) before surgery. This type of treatment approach is called total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT). The researchers will also look at whether the sequence of the treatment approach (NALIRIFOX + ADXRT and capecitabine followed by surgery, when it is possible) is effective and causes few or mild side effects in participants. An important purpose of the study is to see how the study treatment (NALIRIFOX + AD-XRT and capecitabine) affects participants' quality of life. The researchers will measure quality of life by having participants fill out questionnaires
This is a single arm study in the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The investigators propose to test the tolerability of chemotherapy plus endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) using the RF Electrode in patients receiving palliative second or third line therapy for unresectable non-metastatic pancreatic cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess if Six-Dimensional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (6D-MRI) is effective in predicting outcomes in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
This goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the drug combination of intraperitoneal paclitaxel (chemotherapy given directly into the abdominal cavity) and intravenous NALIRIFOX (chemotherapy given into a vein, including fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and liposomal irinotecan) is safe and works in adults with pancreatic cancer that has spread to the peritoneum. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Are people with pancreatic cancer able to tolerate the combination drug regimen? * How well does the combination drug regimen work to treat pancreatic cancer? Participants will: * Obtain a port that goes into the abdomen to deliver intraperitoneal paclitaxel (called an intraperitoneal catheter) * Receive treatment with intravenous NALIRIFOX once every 2 weeks and intraperitoneal paclitaxel on days 1 and 8 of each 14-day cycle * Visit the clinic with each treatment for checkups and laboratory testing * Have imaging scans and blood lab testing to determine response to treatment * Have abdominal fluid lab testing that may help determine if the cancer is responding to treatment * Fill out questionnaires to see how the treatment affects how participants feel and function * Continue follow up after treatment ends to track survival Some participants may be able to have surgery later if the cancer responds well. This is called conversion surgery. To be eligible for surgery, the cancer must have shrunk or stayed the same, peritoneal fluid (from the abdomen) must no longer show cancer cells, and a tumor marker called CA 19-9 must decrease or return to normal. The decision to do surgery will depend on the treating surgeon. By testing this new treatment strategy, researchers hope to find a safer and more effective way to treat people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to the abdomen. If successful, this approach may lead to longer survival, better quality of life, and more people becoming eligible for surgery.
This is a Phase 1b trial evaluating the combination of Fostamatinib, a Syk kinase inhibitor currently FDA-approved for chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP), with the standard of care chemotherapy agents gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel, for the perioperative treatment of resectable non metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
The objectives of this study are to determine the feasibility, tolerability, and treatment effect of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) radiofrequency ablation (RFA) plus standard-of-care neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) will be performed before tumor resection surgery, with the goal of shrinking a tumor or stopping the spread of cancer so that surgery might be less invasive and more effective.
This is a research study to evaluate how the genetic makeup of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can affect the response to FDA-approved chemotherapy treatment, FOLFIRINOX, given before surgery to remove the tumor. Certain types of PDAC tumors can be surgically resected (removed). However, not all types of PDACs are resectable, especially if they are close to important structures like blood vessels or intestines. These types of PDACs are treated with chemotherapy such as FOLFIRINOX. Research studies showed that chemotherapy after surgical resection of PDAC tumors reduced the risk of the cancer returning. Chemotherapy is used to treat PDAC that has not spread outside of the pancreas and is not resectable. FOLFIRINOX is a chemotherapy treatment that combines multiple chemotherapeutic agents, including oxaliplatin, leucovorin, irinotecan, and 5-FU. Patients receive these agents by intravenous infusion. Of these drugs, 5-FU requires you to return home with a chemotherapy pump that will deliver chemotherapy over 46 hours. This regimen has been studied in pancreatic cancer that has been removed with surgery as a method for preventing the cancer from returning. Studies showed FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy reduced the risk of cancer returning and increased patients survival. In this study, researchers want to know if FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy given before surgery will make the cancer easier to remove with surgery and increase the chances of the cancer staying away after surgery. Researchers have shown that pancreatic cancers are not all the same when you look at the DNA and RNA that is inside a pancreatic cancer cell. Depending on the expression of different genes in a cancer cell, some pancreatic cancers may respond differently to chemotherapy. In this study researchers want to know if FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy can change the genetic profile of the cancer. This will be studied by obtaining a biopsy of the cancer before the start of chemotherapy, and after 8 treatments of chemotherapy. They will also study cancer cells that will be collected from blood samples.
