Official title
Circulating Tumor Cells Shed in Operative Blood During Pancreatectomy for Pancreatic Cancer is Responsible for Peritoneal Recurrence
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
It is hypothesized that circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from pancreatic adenocarcinoma are released into the peritoneal cavity through blood lost during the surgical resection of these tumors resulting in peritoneal recurrence despite appropriate surgical resection. Targeting the mechanisms responsible for CTC adhesion to the peritoneum may result in inhibition of implantation and growth, thus preventing this mode of pancreatic cancer recurrence postoperatively.
