NCT01102569
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 cancer patients may have a significant impact; allowing for early screening, treatment, and resection of pre-malignant tissue or malignant lesions.
NCT00954525
Eligible candidates will be adults with metastatic pancreatic cancer (confirmed diagnosis with pathology reports and measurable computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)). Participants must not be receiving any other concurrent chemotherapy, or radiation therapy. Full inclusion/exclusion criteria are available. History and physical examination, and laboratory and imaging analyses will be done within 14 days prior to registration. The three cohorts of subjects will receive 50, 75 or 100 grams of intravenous ascorbic acid, three times per week for 8 weeks. Subjects will also have co-administration of the chemotherapy medications, gemcitabine (intravenously) and erlotinib (orally). Approximately 9 to 18 participants will be enrolled in this Phase I study.
NCT02414100
This pilot research trial studies patient derived cancer cell lines in identifying molecular changes in patients with previously untreated pancreatic cancer and are receiving gemcitabine hydrochloride-based chemotherapy. Cell lines refer to samples taken from the patient's tumor to grow for many months or years in a laboratory, and can therefore be studied scientifically. Studying cell lines in the laboratory may help doctors understand the genetic changes that occur to the tumor during chemotherapy that allows the tumor to resist or grow despite treatment.
