- Adequate organ and marrow function as defined by the following criteria:
- Renal function: Blood creatinine ≤ 1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN), or eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min [by a clinically validated calculator such as Modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula];
- Liver function: Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 3×ULN; serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5×ULN*
- For study participants with recent biliary obstruction treated by drainage (e.g. stent), serum total bilirubin of > 1.5×ULN will be accepted for study entry provided that serial levels demonstrate clear improvement. In addition, chemotherapy should not be commenced until serum bilirubin is ≤ 1.5×ULN.

All male participants must agree to not donate sperm during the study and for at least 12 months after NRT6008 administration.
Who cannot join
- Allergic to the investigational device NRT6008 Injection or any of its components.

- Contraindications to anaesthesia.
- Participants who have any other known, active malignancy, except for treated cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, or nonmelanoma skin cancer in the past 5 years. Participants with a history of malignancies of low recurrence potential who have received curative-intent therapy may be approved on a case-by-case basis in discussion with the study Sponsor, if it is determined not to put the participant at an increased risk of adverse device effects and/or interfere with the integrity of study outcome.
- Presence or suspicion of distant metastasis, including non-regional lymph nodes, on imaging.

- The participant is considered by the Investigator to be at an unacceptably high risk for the EUS-FNI procedure, or the procedure is deemed technically infeasible based on clinical judgment.
- Radiation injury to the stomach, duodenum, or peritoneum, and/or other conditions that put the participant at an increased risk of intervention-related toxicities such as certain types of prior abdominal surgery that significantly alters the upper abdomen anatomy, by Investigator judgment.
- Presence of uncontrolled or unstable chronic medical conditions despite appropriate treatment (e.g., hypertension, diabetes mellitus), or any medical condition that, in the Investigator's judgment, would compromise participant safety or study participation, or interfere with the integrity of study outcomes.
- History of acute pancreatitis, severe gastrointestinal haemorrhage, a severe cardio- or cerebrovascular event (including but not limited to stroke, unstable angina pectoris) within 6 months before the first dose of chemotherapy regimen, or presence of an active infection requiring systemic treatment within 2 weeks prior to first dose of chemotherapy regimen.

About this study
Official title: A Phase Ib Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of NRT6008 Plus Chemotherapy in Unresectable Locally Advanced Pancreatic Carcinoma
This is a phase Ib, open-label study to evaluate safety and efficacy of NRT6008 in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with unresectable Locally Advanced Pancreatic Carcinoma (LAPC).
Read the detailed description
The efficacy and safety of Yttrium-90 carbon microspheres in patientswith unresectable LAPC remain unknown. This trial is a prospective, multicenter,open-label, single-arm phase I trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacyof NRT6008 injection.The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of NRT6008 Injection. While the secondary objectives include the assessments of the preliminary efficacy. In addition, the changes of tumor biomarkers and the improvement of cancer pain status of participants after administration will also be evaluated.
- Being tested
- NRT6008 Injection, Systematic chemotherapy
- Keywords
- Yttrium-90, Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle injection, Locally Advanced Pancreatic Carcinoma
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
NRT6008 InjectionDevice
In this study, all participants shall receive NRT6008 injection (for 200 Gy tumour tissue absorbed dose).
Systematic chemotherapyDrug
Participants will be assigned to receive chemotherapy (GN or (m)FOLFIRINOX) at the Investigator's discretion and in accordance with institutional practice. Chemotherapy will be initiated in Cycle 1. The investigational device, NRT6008 Injection, will be administered 10 days (±3 days) after completion of the tumour assessment in Cycle 1. Participants will then receive Cycle 2 Day 1 chemotherapy 7 days (±1 day) following NRT6008 administration. The Investigator-assigned chemotherapy regimen will continue throughout the study until the occurrence of disease progression, intolerance to chemotherapy, death, loss to follow-up, or determination of eligibility for surgical resection (including R0 or R1 resection), whichever occurs first.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing NRT6008 Injection and Systematic chemotherapy in people with Unresectable Locally Advanced Pancreatic Carcinoma, run by NRT MedTech Australia Pty Ltd at 1 site in Australia.
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 15 inclusion and 17 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2026. 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 Australia. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Nam Nguyen (0422113598, QUOCNAM.NGUYEN@SA.GOV.AU), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Adverse events (AE) and severe adverse events (SAE) (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 18 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 29 Apr 2026.
