About this study
Official title: Research for Prognostic and Predictive Biomarkers of Therapeutic Response in Pancreatic Tumors - PACAomics / IPC 2011-004
Pancreatic cancer is among the most serious human neoplasia and the most difficult to treat.
Most patients present at diagnosis a non resectable, locally advanced or metastatic disease, with a median survival of 12 month.
The aim of this study is the identification of diagnosis biomarkers, predictive of the therapeutic response.
This project investigate the use of molecular analyses applied to pancreatic tumor cells collected by microbiopsy under ultrasound-endoscopy, and blood cells.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing suspected pancreatic tumor in people with Pancreatic Tumor, run by Institut Paoli-Calmettes at 1 site in France.
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 4 inclusion and 2 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 21 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 France. 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?
Biomarkers (time frame: within twenty four hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01692873, which also lists 10 linked publications.
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 21 Apr 2026.
