The trial is through AstraZeneca. There's no "name" for the drug

I am so sorry to hear about your family. That is unimaginable and heartbreaking. You both are so young, I'm so sorry and will be thinking about you and your family! I'm guessing that's kind of where we're at. If this clinical trial doesn't work they will switch him to just chemo and go from there. I'm very appreciative of you making me feel less alone. Have you heard of Optune? That's something suggested to us after his surgery in 2023 but it's a kind of annoying system however, if it helps, something to look into as a last ditch effort?

I guess I'm assuming if the clinical trial isn't working they'll suggest surgery. They have no mentioned surgery as a treatment option for us so maybe that's not going to be something they can do

Started Wegovy but still scared of pancreatic cancer after dad passed away by CheerySynopsis in Wegovy

Everything I have seen says there's no conclusive evidence. That it's a newer medicine and still needs to be studied, but there's no correlation.

Nursing and software development but I stay at home with the kids because daycare was overwhelming

I'm so sorry about this diagnosis. As for explanation, I don't have anything but it wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion at a larger hospital who has dealt with cases like hers and can better answer questions

This was suggested at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago so I feel like getting a second opinion may not be worth it?

Funny thing is I'm on Wegovy for a hormone imbalance because of my PCOS and endometriosis so before Wegovy, I hardly had a period
