Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

We are going to establish "organoid" models from pancreatic cancer biopsies achieved via EUS-FNA. Then the sensitivity of the selected FDA-approved anti-cancer drugs will be tested in these organoids.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Biopsy

Detailed Description

The survival rate of pancreatic cancer, a kind of malignant tumor, remains poor due to lack of effective treatments. Recently, a new model called "organoid" has been generated from human and murine pancreatic cancer tissues. These organoids are developed from large pieces of surgical tissues or small biopsies taken from EUS-FNA guided samples. Here in our study we are going to establish "organoid" models from pancreatic cancer biopsies achieved via EUS-FNA. After successful generation of these organoids, we will treat them with the selected FDA-approved anti-cancer drugs, and assess the responses to these anti-cancer agents in our established organoids.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of organoids successfully generated from pancreatic cancer biopsies [09/01/2018-06/01/2019]

    Successful isolation of pancreatic cancer organoids within 2 weeks of EUS-FNA operation will be defined as successful establishment of an organoid. We will calculate the total number of organoids generated in our center.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Response of the pancreatic cancer organoids to the selected anti-cancer drugs [06/01/2019-06/01/2020]

    We will treat the established organoids with the selected FDA-approved drugs. Then the anti-cancer activity of these drugs will be tested using CellTiter-Glo 3D Cell Viability Assay (Promega).
