Research access

Clinical trials

We help connect pancreatic cancer patients with clinical trials that may offer access to new and emerging treatments.

National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation provides access to clinical research studies. Trial listings are maintained by sources such as ClinicalTrials.gov and the National Library of Medicine. Neither NPCF nor the U.S. government reviews or approves the safety and science of every study listed on public registries.

A trial is not a last resort. For many pancreatic cancer patients it is how they reach a therapy that is not yet standard — immunotherapy, targeted drugs for BRCA or other mutations, new combinations, or better supportive care.

How we help

  • Talk through questions to ask your oncologist about eligibility
  • Point you toward high-volume centers that run pancreatic trials
  • Help families think about travel, lodging, and the practical cost of participating

Call 1-800-859-NPCF (6723) or email admin@mpcf.us and tell us your diagnosis, stage if you know it, and city. We will help you take the next step with your care team.
