Contribution of New Pancreatic MRI Sequences for the Evaluation of Tumor Response in Pancreatic Adenocarcinomas

Sponsor

Central Hospital, Nancy, France

Enrollment

120 participants

Start Date

Jun 6, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Pancreas Adenocarcinomas

Summary

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is the most pessimistic digestive cancer in terms of prognosis. Tumor response assessment is crucial, and the recent development of new magnetic resonance imaging sequences, such as high resolution applied to diffusion sequences (Harder et al., 2022) or magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) (Steinkohl et al., 2021), could help address this issue.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is evaluating whether new MRI imaging techniques can provide better information about pancreatic cancer than standard CT scans. Better imaging before surgery could help doctors decide on the best treatment approach for pancreatic cancer that hasn't spread to other organs. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 years old or older - You have been diagnosed with non-metastatic (not yet spread) pancreatic cancer on a CT scan - You are affiliated with a social security system (French healthcare system) - You have signed the informed consent form **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have a contraindication to MRI (e.g., a pacemaker or certain metal implants) - You are pregnant, breastfeeding, or in labor - You are a minor (under 18) - You are under legal protection (guardianship or court order) - You are deprived of liberty Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

DEVICEMagnetic resonance elastography (MRE).

Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is an imaging technique that measures tissue stiffness by assessing the deformation waves produced under external pressure

DEVICEHigh-resolution diffusion sequence in MRI

High-resolution diffusion sequence in MRI is an imaging technique that uses the movement of water molecules within tissues to generate detailed images.
