Frequently Asked Questions
Does this research endeavor accept subjects that are 45 years and older?
"According to the eligibility requirements of this trial, any patient aged 18-85 is able to participate."
What are the projected results of this research?
"The primary aim of this medical trial, with an expected duration of up to 5 years, is to determine the presence or lack thereof of pancreatic cancer in patients suffering from cystic lesions. Secondary objectives include evaluating disease-free survival through Kaplan-Meier analysis and overall survival along with surgical diagnostic measures using AJCC TNM staging system as potential confounders or modifiers for the model. The c-statistics will be reported on each model."
Are there any prior experiments that have employed Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging?
"Currently, 15 clinical trials are researching the application of Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Of those, 4 have reached Phase 3. Moreover, 40 different sites across New York are running studies on this diagnostic imaging technology."
What is the aggregate quantity of participants involved in this research project?
"Indeed, the clinical trial is actively enrolling participants as suggested by its listing on clinicaltrials.gov. This research project was initially posted January 31st 2014 and has been updated once since then, on August 16th 2022. They are looking for 70 individuals to join at one dedicated site of study."
Am I eligible to participate in this experiment?
"This medical investigation is searching for 70 volunteers aged 18 to 85 who have been diagnosed with pancreatic carcinoma. Additionally, they must satisfy the following conditions: possess a high-risk genetic syndrome (e.g., BRCA 1&2, STK11, CDNK2A, PRSS1 and MSH 2&6), GROUPS 1, 2 AND 3 participants must qualify for surgical resection based on conventional imaging findings or symptoms; all volunteers are required to undertake a negative pregnancy test if applicable; consenting to join the Oregonms; all volunteers are required to undertake a negative pregnancy test if applicable; consenting to join the Oregon Pancreatic Tumor Registry (OPTR) is mandatory; those with strong"
Is acceptance into this medical study still possible for interested participants?
"Yes, clinicaltrials.gov indicates that the trial is still recruiting applicants. It was initially posted in January 2014 and last edited in August 2022; with a goal of enlisting 70 patients from 1 site."
