Pilot Comparing ctDNA IDV vs. SPV Sample in Pts Undergoing Biopsies for Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Cancers

Pilot Trial Comparing Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) From Immediate Draining Vein vs. Standard Peripheral Vein Sample in Patients Undergoing Biopsies for Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Cancers


Sponsor

University of California, Irvine

Enrollment

15 participants

Start Date

Sep 7, 2022

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This is a prospective pilot protocol investigating whether ctDNA detection be improved by sampling the cancer draining vein versus the standard practice of sampling from a peripheral vein in patients who are undergoing biopsies for hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This pilot study is comparing two different blood sample collection methods to detect cancer DNA in the bloodstream (called "liquid biopsy") in patients with liver, bile duct, or pancreatic cancers. The goal is to find out which collection method gives better results during a biopsy procedure. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older and have or are being evaluated for liver, bile duct, or pancreatic cancer - You are scheduled for an image-guided biopsy of a lesion - You are able to lie still during the procedure **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have a bleeding disorder that cannot be corrected - Your platelet count is very low or your blood clotting is abnormal - You weigh more than 375 pounds (equipment weight limit) - You have moderate to severe fluid buildup in the abdomen (ascites) Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
