PDAC Regression and Intraoperative Surgical Margin With Neoadjuvant TAMP (PRISM-TAMP)
PDAC Regression and Intraoperative Surgical Margin With Neoadjuvant TAMP (PRISM-TAMP): A Phase Ib/II Open-Label Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Mar 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with poor survival outcomes, even when treated with modern chemotherapy and radiation. Patients with borderline resectable PDAC often receive neoadjuvant systemic therapy to improve the likelihood of successful surgical removal of the tumor, but rates of incomplete tumor regression and positive surgical margins remain high. This Phase Ib/II, single-arm study evaluates the safety and feasibility of adding trans-arterial microperfusion (TAMP) delivery of gemcitabine to standard neoadjuvant therapy for patients with borderline resectable PDAC. In this study, patients receive standard systemic chemotherapy with modified FOLFIRINOX followed by stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). After completion of chemoradiation, gemcitabine is delivered directly to the tumor through the arterial blood supply using the RenovoCath® catheter system. Gemcitabine is an FDA-approved chemotherapy drug for pancreatic cancer, and the study is evaluating a novel method of delivering the drug rather than a new medication. The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant TAMP-delivered gemcitabine in this treatment setting. Secondary objectives include evaluation of surgical margin status and pathologic tumor regression following surgical resection. Exploratory analyses will examine relapse-free survival. Results from this study will help determine whether this locoregional chemotherapy approach can be safely integrated into neoadjuvant treatment strategies for patients with borderline resectable PDAC.

Who the study is looking for
- Histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
- Borderline resectable disease as defined by the ABC classification criteria, incorporating one or more of the following:
- Anatomy (A): Vascular involvement consistent with borderline resectable or resectable locally advanced-PDAC (e.g., abutment of the superior mesenteric vein or artery, portal vein, or celiac axis) as determined by cross-sectional imaging
- Biology (B): Concern for extra-pancreatic metastasis or known N1 disease or suspicious but nonconfirmatory liver/lung lesion(s). CA19-9\>500 after normalized bilirubin
- Condition (C): Functional status and comorbidity profile adequate for curative-intent surgery, as assessed by the multidisciplinary team, specifically WHO PS \>/=1.
- No prior treatment for PDAC (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery).
- Age ≥ 18 years.
