What is being measured

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

  1. R0 resection rate

    surgery is supposed to be performed 3 months after the initiation of chemotherapy

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. completion rate of chemotherapy

    chemotherapy is supposed to take 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

  2. relative dose intensity

    chemotherapy is supposed to take 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

  3. adverse event

    chemotherapy is supposed to take 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

  4. tumor response

    tumor response to chemotherapy will be assessed based on Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumor (RECIST). CR: Complete Response, PR: Partial Response, PD: Progression, SD: Stable Disease, NE: Not Evaluable

    Measured: 3 months

  5. disease free survival

    Measured: 3 years after the surgery

  6. overall survival

    Measured: 3 years after the surgery

  7. surgical complication

    Measured: 1 month after the surgery

  8. quality of the tumor

    Chemotherapy is supposed to take 3 months. After the completion of chemotherapy, the quality of the tumor will be assessed by imaging findings, such as CT number and Standardized uptake value.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel in people with Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer, run by Nagoya University.

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 6 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

R0 resection rate (time frame: 3 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 10 Sep 2020.
