Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The response to 1st and 2nd chemotherapy in comparison to response predicted by the RNA-based signatures using transcriptome data from fine needle biopsies of metastases of patients with stage IV PDAC. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| i) The generation of a platform for simultaneous search for alternative treatments as rescue treatments once standard 1st and 2nd line treatments have failed, based on drug screening of patient derived organoids and identification of actionable mutations. ii) The feasibility to perform comprehensive IHC-multiplex analysis on fine needle biopsies of liver metastases. | — |
