Albumin-bound Paclitaxel Combined With Gemcitabine First-line Inoperable Pancreatic Cancer

Q: What is the NCT05035147 clinical trial studying?

This study aims to further observe and evaluate whether the three-week administration of albumin-bound paclitaxel combined with gemcitabine is equivalent to the four-week administration in the treatment of inoperable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer The full protocol is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and includes the primary outcome measures, eligibility criteria, and study endpoints.

Q: Who can participate in NCT05035147?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath.

Q: How do I contact the trial site for NCT05035147?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Q: Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.

Non-inferiority Study of Albumin-bound Paclitaxel Combined With Gemcitabine for Three Weeks Versus Four Weeks for First-line Inoperable Locally Advanced or Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Albumin-bound Paclitaxel Combined With Gemcitabine First-line Inoperable Pancreatic Cancer (NCT05035147) is a Phase 4 interventional studying Pancreatic Cancer, sponsored by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 4 studies happen after a treatment has been approved by the FDA. They monitor long-term safety, real-world effectiveness, and any rare side effects that only emerge in larger populations over longer periods. Phase 4 results sometimes lead to label changes, additional warnings, or — rarely — withdrawal of approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

A target enrollment of 934 participants makes this a sizable late-stage trial. Studies in this range typically have enough power to detect clinically meaningful differences from a comparator and to characterize less-common side effects.
