Hyperpolarized C Pyruvate Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Blood-Based Biomarkers for Early Detection of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma in Patients With Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms
The purpose of this study is for researchers to find ways of detecting pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma/PDAC early to avoid the invasive procedure of surgery. The study researchers think a combination of imaging and a series of blood tests may be an effective way to detect PDAC early. In this study, …
Clinical Application of PET Imaging Targeting CLDN18.2 in Malignant Tumors
The project aims to perform integrated PET/MR or PET/CT imaging in patients with histologically confirmed or clinically suspected gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, or other malignant tumors with high Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2) expression, as well as healthy volunteers. This study utilizes a CLDN18.2-specific PET imaging probe (e.g., [^68Ga]Ga-labeled humanized antibody fragment) …
Use Of Indocyanine Green In Pancreas Surgery
This study evaluates the use of indocyanine green to predict postoperative pancreatic leaks in patients undergoing transection of the pancreas.
A Pancreatic Cancer Screening Study in Hereditary High Risk Individuals
The main goal of this study is to screen and detect pancreatic cancer and precursor lesions in individuals with a strong family history or genetic predisposition to pancreatic cancer. Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Magnetic cholangiopancreatography (MRI/MRCP) will be utilized to screen for early stage pancreatic cancer or precursor lesions. Participants …
The Value of 68Ga-grazytracer PET in Monitoring Responses to Immunotherapy of Pancreatic Cancer.
This study aims to investigate the value of 68Ga-grazytracer in predicting the efficacy of immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer.
Management of Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction Between Surgery and Endoscopy
The aim of this observational study is to compare the outcomes of three different procedures performed for the management of malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction due to Pancreatic Cancer.Patients who undergo:Surgical gastroenterostomyEndoscopic placement of a self-expanding metallic stentEUS-guided gastroenterostomy in accordance with standard clinical practice, will be enrolled to evaluate potential …
Assessment of the Prognosis of Pancreatic Cancer Patients Using 3D MRE
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), representing 85-95% of pancreatic cancers, is a highly lethal malignancy with a dismal 5-year survival rate below 8%. Emerging evidence highlights the critical need for non-invasive imaging biomarkers to stratify prognosis and guide therapeutic strategies. Notably, the biomechanical properties of PDAC-associated extracellular matrix (ECM), characterized by …
Bio-Repository of High Risk Cohorts for the Early Detection of Pancreas Cancer
Bio-repository to collect bio-specimens from patients with 1) pancreatic cysts and 2) patients at high risk, defined by family history and/or genetic mutations, for pancreatic cancer.
Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy as an Imaging Biomarker for the Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions
The study schema is shown in Figure 4. (A) All patients referred to one of the participating academic centers for EUS evaluation of the PCL will be enrolled in the protocol if they satisfy inclusion criteria. Patient consent will be obtained during the clinic visit or prior to their EUS. …
Evaluation of Resection Techniques for Pancreatic Tumors
The objective of this study is to compare open and minimally invasive pancreatic and liver resection techniques and analyze the different outcome variables from the clinical standpoint.The plan is to investigate patient survival, length of stay, complication rates, operative time, transfusion rate, 30 and 90-day readmission rate, and hospital charges.
