"This trial is no longer accepting participants. Initially posted on July 23rd 2020, and last updated September 7th 2022, the study has since concluded its recruitment phase. For those looking for other clinical trials related to malignant neoplasm of pancreas or Dostarlimab there are presently 704 and 115 studies respectively that are actively enrolling patients."

Answered by AI

Are there any vacancies available in this clinical research program?

"The recruitment for this clinical trial has since concluded, with the initial posting on July 23rd 2020 and a final update on September 7th 2022. Nonetheless, there are still numerous studies recruiting patients affected by malignant neoplasm of pancreas (704) and Dostarlimab (115)."
