Metabolomic and Immune-Microbiome Profiling for Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer

Sponsor: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Summary

Brief Summary The goal of this observational study is to identify biomarkers and develop a personalised treatment stratification model for patients with unresectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in Taiwan. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What serum metabolomic profiles predict treatment response and patient survival? * How do immune response markers and gut microbiome composition correlate with therapeutic outcomes? * Can a combined multi-omic stratification algorithm enhance personalised therapy planning? Participants, who have been diagnosed with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic PDAC and are undergoing systemic therapy and chemoradiotherapy, will: * Provide serum samples for comprehensive metabolomic profiling via high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. * Undergo immune profiling through flow cytometry. * Provide stool samples for gut microbiome analysis using 16S rRNA sequencing. * Be followed longitudinally to correlate these multi-omic findings with clinical outcomes. Researchers anticipate that integrating these multi-omic analyses will facilitate personalised therapy approaches, potentially improving patient outcomes.
