An Observational Study to Learn More About the Impact of Gadoxetate Sodium-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (EOB-MRI) When Used to Diagnose the Spread of Cancer From the Pancreas to the Liver in Japanese People Under Real-World Conditions
This is an observational study in which data from people with cancer that has spread from the pancreas to the liver are collected and studied. These adults will include people who already received their usual treatment and who have had a certain type of imaging scan before the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Metastatic pancreatic cancer is a cancer that starts in the pancreas, a gland that helps to digest food, and has spread to other parts of the body. Pancreatic cancer most commonly spreads to the liver (called liver metastasis). Gadoxetate sodium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (EOB-MRI) is a type of imaging technique that uses a specific dye called gadoxetate sodium to produce clearer images of the liver. Participants with pancreatic cancer can be treated with surgery only if their cancer has not spread to other parts of the body. Therefore, it is important to find out if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body before performing surgery. To do this, different imaging scans such as exploratory laparoscopy and CE-CT are used. However, these tests have certain limitations, such as complicated procedures or, in some cases inaccurate results. Some studies suggest that performing EOB-MRI along with a regular CT scan may improve the chances of finding out if pancreatic cancer has spread to the liver. This imaging technique is especially helpful in detecting smaller tumors that may be missed in other types of scan. However, more information is needed to better understand the impact of EOB-MRI in Japanese people under real-world conditions. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about how using EOB-MRI helps in deciding the treatment options, how well the participants do, and how much does the use of medical care facilities costs. The main information that researchers will collect in this study: participant characteristics, including age, sex, whether they smoke or not, how well they can manage daily tasks, any other health problems they have,
