What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding nimotuzumab, a targeted antibody, to standard chemotherapy can help people with high-risk pancreatic cancer that can still be surgically removed. About 156 participants will receive either the drug combo or a placebo before and after surgery. The main goal is to see if it delays cancer recurrence.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Nimotuzumab (a targeted antibody) combined with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine (chemotherapy)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a more effective treatment option for people with high-risk pancreatic cancer, potentially delaying recurrence and extending survival.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 2 trial with only 156 participants. The drug may not improve outcomes over standard care, and side effects from the combination could be significant.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * 1\. Age 18-75 years old, gender unlimited; * 2\. Histologically or cytologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); * 3\. Confirmed as resectable/borderline resectable pancreatic cancer by CT/MRI imaging (resectability assessment refers to NCCN guidelines). For resectable pancreatic cancer, at least one of the following high-risk factors must be met: 1) CA199 \> 500 U/ml; 2) the maximum diameter of the primary tumor \> 3.0 cm; 3) Severe weight loss (BMI \< 18.5 kg/m² OR involuntary weight loss \> 15% within 6 months); 4) Severe pain (Numeric Rating Scale \[NRS\]≥ 4); 5) Definite regional lymph node metastasis (N1 or N2) OR suspicious regional lymph node metastasis (short-axis diameter of lymph nodes ≥15 mm); * 4\. Voluntarily agree to sample collection (for KRAS gene testing and post-hoc analysis); * 5\. Adequate organ and bone marrow function, defined as follows: hemoglobin≥9.0 g/dL; absolute neutrophil count (ANC)≥1.5×10\^9/L; platelets≥80×10\^9/L; serum total bilirubin (TBIL)≤1.5×ULN; aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); serum creatinine≤1.5×ULN or estimated creatinine clearance \> 60 mL/min; * 6\. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) 0-2; * 7\. Life expectancy of at least 3 months; * 8\. Women of childbearing age should have a negative result of serum HCG or urine pregnancy tests within 72 hours prior to randomization (Postmenopausal women who have had amenorrhea for at least 12 months are considered sterile and women known to have had tubal ligation are not required to undergo pregnancy tests) ; * 9\. Good compliance and signed informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * 1\. Previous treatment for pancreatic cancer. * 2\. Accompanied by other serious diseases, including but not limited to: active infections; unmanageable diabetes mellitus and uncontrolled hypertension (SBP\>160mmHg or DBP\>100mmHg); compensatory heart failure (NYHA grade III and IV), unstable angina or poorly controlled arrhythmias within 3 months prior to randomization; presence of uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring drainage; severe portal hypertension; digestive tract obstruction; respiratory insufficiency and severe lung disease; central nervous system disease or mental illness; * 3\. Clinically diagnosed as local recurrence of pancreatic cancer, or there is evidence of peritoneal/other distant metastases; * 4.History of other malignancies (except cured basal cell carcinoma of the skin and carcinoma in situ of the cervix); * 5\. Presence of bleeding or coagulation disorders; * 6\. Known allergy to prescription or any component of the prescription used in this study; * 7\. Known HIV infection, syphilis infection, or active hepatitis (hepatitis B or C); * 8\. Women who are pregnant or are breastfeeding; * 9.Other reasons that are not suitable to participate in this study according to the researcher's judgment.
