New combo may extend life in tough pancreatic cancer

NCT ID NCT03943667

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 211 people with advanced pancreatic cancer whose first treatment (FOLFIRINOX) stopped working or caused too many side effects. Researchers compared a two-drug combination (gemcitabine and paclitaxel) against gemcitabine alone to see if the combo helped people live longer. The goal was to find a better second-line option for this hard-to-treat cancer.
