Trial summary

It will be investigated whether it is possible to predict the effect or lack of effect of first-line treatment by analysing cancer cells from the individual patient receiving standard first line treatment. Also, the feasibility of selecting second-line therapy based on pre-treatment biopsies will be investigated. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Predictive Value of In-vitro Anti-cancer Therapy Sensitivity Testing on Tumoroids From Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

It will be investigated whether it is possible to predict the effect or lack of effect of first-line treatment by analysing cancer cells from the individual patient receiving standard first line treatment. Also, the feasibility of selecting second-line therapy based on pre-treatment biopsies will be investigated.

Cells from pancreatic cancer will be grown in the laboratory to form small, circulating tumors and adjacent tissue, so called tumoroids. The tumoroids will then be exposed to different pre-specified anticancer drugs to hopefully reveal sensitivity or lack of sensitivity in the specific patient.

Being tested
Inditreat, Experimental drug

What participants receive

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Predictive value of in-vitro testing

    Predictive value is defined as the ability to correctly predict response or resistance to first-line chemotherapy

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Feasibility of selecting second-line therapy based on pre-treatment biopsies as measured by treatment response (RESIST 1.1 criteria)

    Measured: Every 2 months during treatment up to 180 days

  2. Feasibility of selecting second-line therapy based on pre-treatment biopsies as measured by progression free survival (PFS)

    Measured: Every 2 months up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer, run by Vejle Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 19 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Predictive value of in-vitro testing (time frame: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 May 2023.
