Heat therapy gives new hope for advanced pancreatic cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07191418
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding a heat-based treatment called radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to a standard procedure (ERCP) can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread to the liver live longer. About 178 adults with limited liver spread will be randomly assigned to get either the standard ERCP alone or ERCP plus RFA. The goal is to see if the added heat treatment improves cancer-specific survival.
