About this trial

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).

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

Underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (FOLFIRINOX or Gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel).

Availability of pre-treatment plasma samples.

Underwent curative-intent resection (R0 or R1).

Disqualifiers

Inadequate plasma samples or poor RNA quality for exosomal miRNA analysis.

Non-adenocarcinoma histology.

Presence of synchronous or multiple primary malignancies.

Receipt of chemotherapy regimens other than standard FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (GEM-NABP).

Trial design
