Endoscopic Ultrasound clinical trials at UCSF

2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people

Endoscopic ultrasound is a procedure that uses sound waves and a tiny camera on a tube. UCSF is studying how often MRIs are abnormal in people with BRCA and other risk genes. Endoscopic ultrasound is used to examine the pancreas and collect tissue if needed.

  • Pancreatic Cancer Screening

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This study investigates how often abnormal findings from routine magnetic resonance imaging occur in people with genetic mutations in BReast CAncer gene. (BRCA), ataxia telangiectasia mutated gene (ATM), or PALB2 screened for pancreatic cancer. This study may lead to a greater understanding of cancer and potentially, improvements in cancer screening and treatment.

  • Comparing Two Methods to Follow Patients With Pancreatic Cysts

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The purpose of this study is to compare the two approaches for monitoring pancreatic cysts. The study doctors want to compare more frequent monitoring vs less frequent monitoring in order to learn which monitoring method leads to better outcome for patients with pancreatic cysts.
