First seen Mar 15, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether giving a combination of surufatinib (a targeted therapy), toripalimab (an immunotherapy), and chemotherapy before surgery can help people with high-risk or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The study will enroll 30 participants and track how many are free of cancer events after 12 months. The goal is to see if this approach makes tumors easier to remove and improves survival.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
surufatinib, toripalimab, and chemotherapy (mFOLFIRINOX)
What this could lead to
If this works, it could shrink pancreatic tumors enough to allow successful surgery, potentially improving long-term survival for patients with hard-to-treat pancreatic cancer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 30 people, so results may not apply broadly. The combination of drugs can cause serious side effects, and it is not yet known if it will improve outcomes.
