Surgery Impact on Circulating Tumor DNA in Pancreatic Cancer (ICAPAC)

January 2, 2023 updated by: University Hospital, Toulouse

Influence of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Excision Surgery on Peripheral and Portal Circulating Tumor DNA: Prospective Exploratory Pilot Study.

Pancreatic cancer represents the fourth cause of death by cancer in western countries. The only curative treatment is surgery but this one is possible only in 10 to 15 % of cases. To date, there are few biomarkers in circulating blood as prognostic or diagnostic markers in pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine if the pancreatic tumor mobilization during its resection impacts the quantity of circulating tumor DNA in peripheral and portal blood.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The investigators will analyze if the tumor mobilization increases circulating DNA rate in peripheral and portal blood. Moreover, circulating tumor DNA will be measured during 12 months after surgery in peripheral blood. They will use a gene mutation detection technique called Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) which is more specific than a simple Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).

Kinetic up to one year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
