Enrollment
300 participants
Start Date
Apr 19, 2022
Study Type

Conditions
Summary
This study aims to assess overall survival, quality of life and resection rates in locally advanced pancreatic cancer
Eligibility
Min Age: 18 Years
Plain Language Summary
Simplified for easier understanding
This study is following and collecting data on people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer — tumors that have grown into nearby blood vessels or tissue but have not yet spread to distant organs — to understand which patients benefit most from surgery, chemotherapy, or other treatment combinations.
**You may be eligible if...**
- You have a confirmed or suspected invasive pancreatic cancer
- Your tumor is classified as borderline resectable or locally advanced (meaning it may or may not be operable) according to standard oncology guidelines
- You are 18 or older
**You may NOT be eligible if...**
- Your tumor is a pancreatic endocrine (hormone-producing) tumor rather than the common type
- You have cancer arising near the pancreas but not within the pancreas itself (non-pancreatic periampullary tumor)
- Your cancer has spread to distant organs (e.g., liver, lungs)
- You are unable to understand or consent to participation due to language, mental, or cognitive barriers
