Province of Ontario Strategy for Personalized Management of Pancreatic Cancer Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a prospective, multi-centre, translational and observational study. Two cohorts of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are eligible to enroll 1) Upfront resectable PDAC 2) Advanced (unresectable PDAC or metastatic). Patients will have tissue either at resection or from a biopsy at enrolment processed for whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing and for establishment of patient derived organoids (PDOs). Background epidemiological history and outcome data will be prospectively annotated. Serial blood and stool samples will be collected for exploratory analyses. All electronic medical record information will also be collected. Data will be used to determine if an integrated correlative analysis of whole genome sequencing/RNAsequencing (WGS/RNAseq) and PDOs in the enrolled population will increase the number of patients receiving a precision-matched treatment in Ontario

Who cannot take part

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

Prior treatment

  • Patients who are not fit enough to undergo a tumour biopsy for any reason as judged by the investigator; this includes patients who cannot stop anticoagulation therapy.
  • For cohort 1 - patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy are excluded, (neoadjuvant immunotherapy is permitted)

Other

  • Certain histologies are excluded: colloid, high grade neuroendocrine;
  • For patients enrolling in cohort 2 - Patients without a tumour lesion amenable to biopsy or with tumour lesions that are not safe for sampling a minimum of 4 to 6 x 18G good quality tumour cores by image guided core needle biopsy as judged by a staff radiologist.

Who the study is looking for

  • Patients must have either upfront resectable PDAC or advanced (unresectable or metastatic) PDAC (borderline PDAC and those planned for neoadjuvant chemotherapy excluded)
  • Patients with a histological or radiological diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). For patients awaiting histological confirmation, tissue obtained at study enrolment or can suffice. For those patients who undergo a resection, surgical tissue will be used.
  • For patients enrolling with resectable PDAC (cohort 1) - the definition of resectability will be according to NCCN guidelines and the patient must be planned for a surgery first approach.
  • For patients with advanced PDAC (cohort 2), all stages are eligible including locally advanced unresectable, first-line metastatic, second-line (or beyond) metastatic.
  • In advanced PDAC patients (cohort 2) where a single lesion is to be biopsied, the lesion should be amenable to a core needle biopsy as judged by a staff radiologist. A minimum of 4 to 6 x 18 Gauge (G) good quality tumour cores must be safely obtainable under CT or US guidance.
  • Patients must have a life expectancy of ≥ 6 months
  • ECOG 0-1
  • Patient must be suitable for systemic therapy
  • Patients should have organ function deemed sufficiently adequate to receive systemic therapy
