Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
The Aim of this study is to investigate the amount of tissue required for the successful culture of primary cells from human-derived pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma which obtained by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy wet suction technique
Detailed description
Pancreatic cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the highest mortality rate in the world, with a 5-year survival rate of only 7.2%-9%. Because some patients are resistant to multiple chemotherapy drugs, and there are differences in drug sensitivity between individuals, the current pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) chemotherapy effect is not satisfactory. In order to improve the efficacy of chemotherapy and achieve precise treatment, it is important to establish an accurate and individualized PDAC research model. Because most of patients with PDAC have developed to advanced stage at the time of diagnosis, it is not suitable for surgery. That limits our ability to obtain tumor cells seriously. With the development of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) technique, it can be used not only to diagnose diseases, but also to provide specimens for molecular analysis and create valuable preclinical disease research models, so as to guide the selection of the most appropriate individualized treatment. EUS-FNB can obtain lesions without any treatment. Therefore, the preclinical disease research model established by EUS-FNB is more representative of the original tumor. However, compared with surgical specimens, the specimens obtained by EUS-FNB are smaller in size, which may affect the successful construction of research models in vitro. Therefore, the investigators plan to use EUS-FNB wet suction technique, a modified specimen acquisition method, to obtain PDAC tissue, and use it for primary cell culture, to explore the amount of tissue required for the successful cultivation of human-derived pancreatic cancer primary cells, so as to provide a prerequisite for the successful establishment of human-derived preclinical disease research model.
Interventions
PROCEDUREdifferent number of passes
Each patient's operation process is the same, that is, after obtaining enough specimens for diagnosis by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) wet suction technique, additional three passes are performed. One of which is randomly selected as the one pass group, and the other two passes automatically as the two pass group. Please refer to the literature for EUS-FNB wet technique (Tong T, et al. J Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2020;10.1111/jgh.15371.)

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Differences in the success rate of culturing primary cells | About 6 weeks after operation | Differences in the success rate of pancreatic cancer primary cells (P1) and culture to the third generation (P3) between the two groups. |
| The difference in the representation to the original tumor between the two groups of primary cells | About 8 weeks after operation | Through Western Blot and PCR methods to detect the representativeness of primary cells to the primary tumor. If the patient underwent surgery later, hematoxylin-eosin staining and/or immunohistochemistry were added to compare the histological morphology with the original tumor. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The relationship between the success rate of primary cell culture and some tumor characteristics | About 6 weeks after operation | Statistical methods such as chi-square test are used to analyze whether the success rate of primary cell culture is related to the tumor size, degree of differentiation, clinical stage, and the length of macroscopic visible core tissue. |
