This study investigates pancreatic cancer cachexia. It looks at how fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) affects cachexia-related factors in mice.
The study evaluates the effects of FMT from cachectic and non-cachectic pancreatic cancer patients and healthy volunteers on mice. It examines changes in weight and other cachexia indicators.
- Who can participate: Adults aged 18 and older with newly diagnosed pancreatic cancer, either cachectic or non-cachectic, are eligible. Healthy volunteers matched by age and gender to cancer patients can also participate.
- Study details: Participants will provide fecal samples for transplantation into mice. Healthy volunteers and pancreatic cancer patients, both cachectic and non-cachectic, will be involved. A placebo is not used in this study.
- Study timelines: The study will last 30 days.
