NCT ID NCT07612046

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests a dedicated MRI scan of the pancreas (MRP) to see if it can detect pancreatic cancer earlier in people at high risk. About 79 participants with a strong family history or certain genetic mutations will get both the new MRI and an endoscopic ultrasound. The goal is to compare image quality and improve screening.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
MRI scan (Magnetic Resonance CholangioPancreatography) and endoscopic ultrasound
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a better screening method to catch pancreatic cancer earlier in people at high risk.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (79 people) focused on image quality, not yet on cancer detection. The new MRI may not prove better than current methods.
