Study Summary

This trial will test if 6D-MRI can help predict outcomes for pancreatic cancer patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for pancreatic cancer patients who can have at least two MRI sessions and are about to start chemotherapy. They must be able to sync a device with Fitbit or use someone else's. It's not for those with severe claustrophobia, previous PDAC treatments, metastatic cancer seen on initial scans, or certain metal implants.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if a new type of MRI called 6D-MRI can predict how well patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma will respond to treatment before they begin their chemotherapy regimen.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves only MRI scanning, side effects may include discomfort from lying still during the procedure and potential anxiety in the machine. There might also be risks related to contrast agents used during MRIs.
