Phase N/A
  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

This study investigates the use of ablative carbon ion radiotherapy for treating locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of this treatment on individuals with this particular condition.

The study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the radiotherapy in managing the cancer. It focuses on understanding how well the treatment controls the tumor and any associated side effects.

  • Who can participate: Adults with ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas, confirmed by tests, can participate if they do not have distant metastasis and meet specific health criteria.
  • Study details: Participants will receive carbon ion radiotherapy targeting specific areas.
