Whole-body hyperthermia (WBHT) is a non-invasive treatment approach that raises the body's core temperature under controlled conditions and may enhance the effects of anticancer therapies through multiple biological mechanisms, including improved drug delivery, modulation of the immune response, and increased sensitivity to treatment.\n\nThe MATTERS-2 study is a multicentre, randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of WBHT in combination with standard systemic anticancer therapy in patients with metastatic PDAC after failure of first-line treatment. Participants will receive either standard systemic therapy alone or standard systemic therapy combined with WBHT.\n\nThe primary objective of the study is to determine whether the addition of WBHT improves clinical outcomes compared with standard therapy alone in terms of overall survival (OS) while maintaining safety. Secondary objectives include other clinical outcomes such as progression-free survival (PFS), disease control rate (DCR) and objective response rate (ORR). Further, quality of life assessments (QoL) and exploratory biomarker analyses will also be performed.",[127,128],"Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (mPDAC)","Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC)",[130,131],"Hyperthermia","Medical device","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-07-14",{"date":135,"type":136},"2026-07-17","ACTUAL",{"date":138,"type":120},"2026-10-01",{"date":140,"type":120},"2030-12-31",{"name":5,"class":6},4]
