Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy or downstaging/-sizing treatment
  • Comorbidity rendering major surgery unfeasible (inoperable)

Other illness

  • Metastatic disease

Lab values

  • Unable to undergo MRI (Kidney insufficiency (eGFR \< 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 body surface ar-ea); Claustrophobia; Cardiac pacemaker)

Other

  • No informed consent
  • Postoperative histology other than adenocarcinoma of pancreato-biliary origin.
  • MRI with liver-specific contrast performed during standard workup.

Who the study is looking for

  • Pancreatic cancer patients considered to have a locally resectable or borderline resectable tumor by the local hepato-pancreato-biliary multidisciplinary team board
  • No liver metastases on CT
  • At least 18 years old and able to provide informed consent
  • Expected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma based on CT scan

Age in the registry: 18 years to 99 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
