A Study of Suizenji in Patients With Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of standard chemotherapy with or without a novel High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system (Code: Suizenji) in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer who are refractory or intolerant to first-line chemotherapy.

FAZA PET/MRI Pancreas

This is a single arm, single centre, investigator initiated study to investigate the use of FAZA-PET in combination with MRI. FAZA is an investigational radiotracer used in PET scans. FAZA PET-MRI will be used to measure hypoxia in up to 20 patients with unresectable, non-metastatic, locally advanced un-resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma (LAPAC). After each FAZA PET-MRI scan, patients will be followed up via telephone, 48 hours after the imaging session to assure that the procedure was tolerated without side effects. Patients will undergo a FAZA PET-MRI scans before and after their standard of care radiation treatment.

Recombinant EphB4-HSA Fusion Protein With Standard Chemotherapy Regimens in Treating Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

This pilot phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein when given together with standard chemotherapy regimens in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, gemcitabine hydrochloride, docetaxel, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether standard chemotherapy regimens are more effective with recombinant ephB4-HSA fusion protein in treating advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

MR Guided Phase II Radiotherapy Dose Escalation in Unresectable Non-Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

This research study is for people who have pancreas cancer for which surgery is not recommended. Potential patients must have already received several months of chemotherapy before they are eligible for this study and there will not have been any detectable spread of their tumor on imaging studies following this chemotherapy course.

A Single-Arm Investigator-Initiated Tria (IIT) Evaluating the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) in Patients With Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) can treat patients with Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer. The drug carried by the Autologous Neutrophils is Monomethyl Auristatin E. The main questions it aims to answer are: First, to verify the safety of Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) in patients with Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer. Second, to assess the anti-tumor efficacy of Autologous Drug-Loaded Neutrophils (NeuMed) in patients with Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer.

Tripegfilgrastim Trial to Reduce the Risk of Severe Neutropenia in Patients With Unresectable Pancreaticobiliary Cancers

* Clinical trial phase: Phase 2 * Intervention model: Control group * Group allocation: Randomized controlled trial * Research perspective: Prospective study * Participating centers: Multicenter study * Definition of the intervention period: Based on the RECIST 1.1 guidelines, patients will receive treatment until dropout due to disease progression or unacceptable toxicity related to the trial drug. Patients will be followed up with to assess survival every 2 months until either death or the end of the trial, whichever is first. * The intervention period is from the date of IRB approval to December 31st, 2025 * The follow-up duration is one year, and the statistical analysis duration is six months * The total research period is from the date of IRB approval to June 30th, 2026

Pre-operative Treatment for Patients With Untreated Pancreatic Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of paclitaxel protein bound, gemcitabine, cisplatin, paricalcitol are effective in individuals with resectable and unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Efficacy of PERT for PEI in Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer.

\- This will a be an open label, multicentre, randomized, controlled study in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer, locally advanced or metastatic, with significant weight loss, and the tumour located in the head of the pancreas associated with dilated main pancreatic duct. Pancreatic Exocrine Replacement Therapy (PERT) in these patients will be given on top of other required therapies (best standard of care, BSC), including oncologic therapies, diabetes mellitus therapies and acid suppressants and nutritional support as appropriate. The duration of the study will be up to six months. Consecutive patients meeting inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be evaluated for the study. Those patients signing the informed consent for study participation will be randomized to one of the following two arms: * The experimental arm will receive the best standard of care (BSC) and PERT (capsules containing pancreatin 35,000 Ph.U.) at a fixed dose of 3 capsules with main meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and 2 capsules with snacks over 6 months. * The control arm will receive the BSC over 3 months, followed by a further 3-month open uncontrolled phase of BSC + PERT at the dose mentioned above. All patients will receive in addition a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) bid (any PPI at standard dose is acceptable -omeprazole 20 mg, lansoprazole 30 mg, pantoprazole 40 mg, rabeprazole 20 mg, esomeprazole 40 mg) while on PERT, 20-30 minutes before breakfast and dinner. To make the two arms comparable, patients will be stratified in two groups (locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer) for randomization using computer generated random numbers.

Nano-SMART: Nanoparticles With MR Guided SBRT in Centrally Located Lung Tumors and Pancreatic Cancer

This research study is being done to help determine the safety and efficacy of gadolinium based nanoparticle, Activation and Guidance of Irradiation X (AGuIX), used in conjunction with MR-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in the treatment of pancreatic cancer and lung tumors.

Safety and Efficacy of NRT6008 in Patients With Unresectable Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer (LAPC)

This is a single arm, open label, multi-center phase I study, including phase Ia dose escalation and phase Ib dose expansion. Safety review committee (SRC) will be formed to monitor safety and efficacy data through the study. And the independent review committee (IRC) will be formed to monitor efficacy data through the study.
