A Cohort Study on ctDNA MRD in Neoadjuvant Therapy for Pancreatic Cancer

Study on Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Monitoring in Neoadjuvant Therapy for Pancreatic Cancer

Recruiting
18-75 years
All
Phase N/A

This study investigates borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to explore the use of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to monitor Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) in patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy.

The study evaluates the relationship between MRD status and surgical outcomes, such as R0 resection rates, and survival outcomes including Disease-Free Survival (DFS) and Overall Survival (OS).

  • Who can participate: Adults aged 18 to 75 with confirmed pancreatic cancer that is high-risk resectable, borderline resectable, or locally advanced can participate. Participants must have a good performance status and be suitable for neoadjuvant therapy.
  • Study details: Participants will receive standard care decided by their doctors and have blood tests to check for MRD. A placebo is not used in this study.
  • Study timelines: The study will last 24 months.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
