ASP2138 monotherapy and chemotherapy for resectable pancreatic ductal cancer (2138-CL-0102) - Clinical Trial
What is the Purpose of this Study?
We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called ASP2138 (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for people who have pancreatic cancer that can be treated with surgery. We want to know if the study drug has a benefit when it is taken by patients before their surgery who then have standard chemotherapy after their surgery.
