Radiographic Response to Chemotherapy in Unresected Localized Pancreatic Cancer

NCT05729737 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to explore whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can early predict and evaluate the treatment response of first-line chemotherapy in locally advanced and borderline resectable pancreatic cancers.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Question 1: What quantitative parameters of CEUS performed before first-line chemotherapy can predict the early treatment response of patients with locally pancreatic cancer?Question 2: Can CEUS reflect early neovascular changes after first-line chemotherapy in pancreatic tumors? Participants will receive CEUS examination carried out by experienced operators before the first cycle of chemotherapy and after 2 treatment cycles.
