Overview

Study Title

An Advanced MRI Abdomen Protocol to Evaluate Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma in Surgically Resectable and Borderline Resectable Disease for Loco-Regional Heterogeneity and To Evaluate Treatment Response Status Post Surgery and MRI-GRT

Summary

This is a prospective study evaluating imaging biomarkers in patients with either one of the following profiles: (1) resectable disease who are treated with surgical management (2) borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma who are treated with MR Guided Radiotherapy with restaging to surgically resectable disease (3) borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma who are treated with MR Guided Radiotherapy with continued treatment with non-surgical therapy including IRE or chemotherapy alone.

Objective

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This is a prospective study evaluating for imaging biomarkers in patients with either one of the following profiles: (1) resectable disease who are treated with surgical management (2) borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma who are treated with MR Guided Radiotherapy with restaging to surgically resectable disease.
