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 …
Genetic Predisposition Testing Program for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms
This is a prospective observational multi-center pilot study of germline testing for participants receiving care at University of California participating locations with a new or existing diagnosis of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (PanNEN). This protocol is an extension of existing Genetic Testing Station efforts at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF)
A Study of Blood Based Biomarkers for Pancreas Adenocarcinoma
The purpose of this study is to develop a minimally invasive test to diagnose pancreatic cancer at early stages of disease and monitor response to treatment.
Establish Diagnostic Models Based on Portal Venous Blood for Pancreatic Cancer
Explore new markers based on portal venous blood sampling to establish novel diagnostic models for identification of malignant pancreatic mass.
PATAKESS Protocol : Clinical and Biological Analysis of Exocrine Pancreatic Tumors
PATAKESS is a monocentric non interventional cohort study (prospective (alive patients) and retrospective (dead patients with biological material from surgery and/or biopsies already collected)). PATAKESS consists of clinical and biological analyses of exocrine pancreatic tumors. Data are derived from tumor samples taken for routine health care purposes in patients managed …
Tumour Regulatory Molecules in Early Pancreatic Cancer Detection
The effective diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is often quite challenging, due to a lack of disease-specific symptoms, resulting in the majority of patients presenting with advanced disease, with an associated dismal prognosis. Earlier detection of pancreatic cancer, at a stage where surgery is feasible, would greatly increase the 5-year survival …
Effectiveness of the Transversus Abdominis Plane Block Associated With Opioid Spinal Anesthesia on Analgesia After Cephalic Duodenopancreatectomy
Duodenopancreatectomy is a major, risky surgery that causes significant post-operative pain. Optimizing perioperative analgesia remains a challenge, and requires multimodal management, notably involving locoregional analgesic techniques. The thoracic epidural helps reduce perioperative pain, as well as certain postoperative complications. However, epidural analgesia is not without effects, and the data remains …
Pancreatic Cancer Genetics
The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of the three most common BReast CAncer gene 1 (BRCA1) and BReast CAncer gene 2 (BRCA2) genetic mutations that are commonly found in Ashkenazi Jewish patients with pancreatic cancer. Testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in relatives of hereditary pancreatic …
Multi-omics Model for Pancreatic Cancer Screening Using cfDNA
This is a prospective case-control study, aiming at developing a cell free DNA (cfDNA) multi-omics precise diagnostic model for screening of pancreatic cancer.
REVOLUTION Surgery (REVOLUTION Surgery)
Some people with cancer suffer from muscle wasting, lose weight and feel tired. This process, termed cachexia, is a significant problem and can lead to a reduction in both quality and quantity of life.Cachexia is caused by interactions between the tumour and the patient. Historically, it was considered to be …
