NCT ID NCT07488884

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-stage trial tests whether adding three new drugs (nogapendekin alfa inbakicept, sotevtamab, and zabadinostat) to standard chemotherapy can safely shrink pancreatic tumors that are hard to remove. About 30 adults with borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic cancer will receive the combination before surgery, then continue immunotherapy afterward. The main goal is to check for side effects and see if the treatment helps control the disease.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

nogapendekin alfa inbakicept, sotevtamab, zabadinostat, gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a more effective treatment approach for pancreatic cancer that is hard to remove with surgery alone.

What could go wrong

This is a very early phase 1 trial with only 30 people, focused on safety. The drug combination may cause serious side effects and may not shrink tumors enough to allow surgery.
