Testing the Addition of a New Anti-cancer Drug, M3814 (Peposertib), to the Usual Radiotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
Recruiting
This phase I/II trial studies the safety, side effects and best dose of M3814 and to see how well it works when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). M3814 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and... Read More

A Clinical Study of MK-2870 Alone or With Chemotherapy to Treat Gastrointestinal Cancers (MK-9999-02A)
Recruiting
Researchers want to learn if sacituzumab tirumotecan (MK-2870) alone or with chemotherapy can treat certain gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The GI cancers being studied are either advanced (the cancer has spread to other parts of the body), or unresectable (the cancer cannot be removed with surgery). The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety and how well people tolerate sacituzumab tirumotecan alone or with chemotherapy * How many people have the cancer respond (get smaller or go...
