Canadian researchers hunt for a better way to personalize pancreatic cancer treatment

NCT ID NCT04472910

Summary

This study aims to learn if measuring a specific protein (GATA6) in a patient's tumor can help doctors predict who will benefit most from a specific chemotherapy regimen given before and after surgery for pancreatic cancer. It involves 84 patients across Canada with early-stage, operable pancreatic cancer. The goal is to gather knowledge to help future patients receive more personalized treatment plans.
