Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease and the best hope for improving the chances of survival is to find it early. Some patients, called "high risk", have an inherited predisposition to pancreatic cancer. Certain medical centers have started programs where "high risk patients" undergo testing, such as receiving imaging scans, to look for…
TReatment for ImmUne Mediated PathopHysiology (TRIUMPH) is a multi-center, three-arm clinical trial of immunosuppressive therapy for children with acute liver failure. This is a double-blind study, so the study doctors and participants will not know to which arm the participants are assigned. The study will determine if corticosteroids or equine anti-…
The purpose of this research study is to determine if an investigational drug, VS-01, will help in the treatment of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) compared to supportive care (standard of therapy). ACLF is a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by a group of signs that occur together (syndrome) in patients with a late stage of…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and effective the NanoKnife System is at treating Stage 3 pancreatic adenocarcinoma. This is registry study and therefore, the NanoKnife System is not being used for study purposes. The safety and efficacy of this system will be evaluated by comparing survival rates, pain ratings, and number of adverse…
The purpose of this study is to learn which treatment works best in patients with pancreatic cancer. The study explores multiple treatment combinations. A study drug called atezolizumab may be combined with other drugs such as cobimetinib, PEGPH20, and BL-8040. Patients may also be assigned to receive standard chemotherapy treatment.
The purpose of this study is to find out which doses of talimogene laherparepvec (T-Vec) can be given safely to patients with pancreatic cancer that is either too big to be taken out by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. The study will also see if T-Vec can cause tumor shrinkage or prevent its growth. To find out which doses are safe, all…
This research study is being conducted to see if a new treatment using a study drug called Olaparib given after platinum based chemotherapy treatments can reduce the risk of pancreatic cancer from growing back. Participants will receive either Olaparib or placebo (no contains active medication) and will stay on the research study for as long as they are not…
The purpose of this study is to test whether GVAX pancreas vaccine and CRS-207 together are safe and work better than chemotherapy to treat individuals with advanced pancreatic cancer who have received at least one prior chemotherapy treatment for metastatic cancer. This study will also look at whether CRS-207 alone is safe and works better than…
