NCT ID NCT05601323
First seen Mar 21, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a new high-intensity focused ultrasound device (Suizenji) to standard chemotherapy can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer that hasn't responded to first-line treatment. About 90 adults whose tumors can be seen on ultrasound will be randomly assigned to get chemo alone or chemo plus the ultrasound treatment. The main goal is to see if the combination helps people live longer.
