Prediction of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Response in Pancreatic Cancer

NCT07226154 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2025-11-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study aims to develop and validate a predictive microRNA (miRNA) panel to assess the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in patients with resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

Conditions

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Small RNA sequencing

High-throughput small RNA sequencing performed on pre-treatment plasma samples from PDAC patients in the Discovery cohort to identify candidate microRNAs associated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy response. Sequencing data were analyzed to detect differentially expressed miRNAs between responder (CR + PR + SD) and non-responder (PD) groups.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

PRECEPT assay (qRT-PCR validation)

Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR)-based validation assay performed on pre-treatment plasma samples in the Training and Validation cohorts. Candidate microRNAs identified in the Discovery cohort by small RNA sequencing were tested using the PRECEPT assay to develop and validate a predictive miRNA panel for neoadjuvant chemotherapy response.
