Are clinical trials worth it for stage 4 pancreatic cancer?

Clinical trials can offer access to promising new treatments that aren't yet widely available, and many patients find hope in contributing to research that could help others facing similar diagnoses. While the decision is deeply personal and should involve thorough discussions with your medical team about potential benefits and risks, it's encouraging that your doctor sees value in exploring this option given your specific situation.

I am due to start a clinical trial next month. I've done chemo multiple times, radiation and surgery. It has metastisized to my liver. I gotta go for it.

You can never tell what's in the cards. On my second round with this mother. I first was told Stage 4 9 years ago last February I managed to stay in remission that long . I kinda knew it would be back as I never got rid of my port just did the routine flush ever 3 months on it. So keep looking and as long as the treatment is working and you have the quality of life you want stick with it

What’d you do 9 years ago to get rid of it

Keep your faith okay I will continue to pray for you and your family 🙏 my name is a Eric Thomas I'm a pancreatic cancer survivor going on 6 ammhalf years remission God is

I think you should find some faith in God and fight to live, by his stripes you are healed. The Bible tells us and we are encouraged to hold on to his word, Also for those who believe he say in his word I will never leave you nor forsake thee, he will be with you from the beginning to the end and a good one to always remember is no weapon formed against thee shall prosper, and the blood of Jesus over us got us covered, I been diagnose and was told the same back in July of 2025, I have done 10 chemo treatment of the strongest chemo a person can take, no side effect from the chemo, treatment have kept the (c) stable, I don’t give it no power, for God holds all power in his hand, I pray a lot through out my day always giving God all the glory over my life which includes my health, finances, my home and family and friends, I pray for this world and everything that is going on, I pray for cures over not only this enemy but all enemies that comes in to kill, steal and destroy Gods people because that is what the devil do, and God says no weapon formed against me shall prosper, I trust God with every being in my body and I let him do the work by talking to him and letting him lead me to all truths , so what I am saying sometimes you got to be your own advocate, take something into your own hands, most doctors we can only afford is only going to give you chemo and radiation, and trials which is good not taking that away but there are doctors out there that offer more, like a liver specialist to remove it from your liver, and that a pancreas specialist , after all we are already told or sentience how along so why not, it won’t hurt, you gave it everything you can think on, you be surprise to find there is other options out there don’t give up, I am do to go to John Hopkins hospital for surgery on my liver and pancreas on May 11th seeing a Doctor JinLou, in the state of Baltimore Maryland who said he could do both my liver and pancreas at the same time, I live in Georgia, I trusting in God for this surgery and doctor he sent to me, I was in the beginning going to have a liver surgery but than again I would still need my pancreas done two different surgeries, but God open another door and I was contacted by John Hopkins Hospital saying they would do both at the same time, no I don’t know how I going to be afterwards but I am going to trust God he will be that doctor in the surgery room doing my operation, he said he will never leave me nor forsake me, I standing on his word and his word alone, no weapon (c) formed against me shall prosper, and by his stripes my God stripes when he was on the cross for my sins and every bodies else sins he says in his word I am healed in Jesus Mighty Name !!!! Don’t give up fight for your life !!!!
