Filter by:Feasibility and efficacy of combined modality intervention using chemotherapeutic agent gemcitabine with anti-angiogenic peptide vaccination targeting VRGFR1 should be determined in case of advanced/inoperable or therapy-resistant pancreatic cancer patients. Gemcitabine 1,000mg/m2 BSA will be administered on day1, day8, day15, day29, day36, day43, respectively. HLA-A*2402-restricted VEGFR1-derived peptide (VEGFR1-A24-1084; SYGVLLWEI) emulsified with Montanide ISA51 will be subcutaneously injected twice weekly for 8weeks (total 16 doses).
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States, and no combination therapy is far superior to gemcitabine alone. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor type 1 (VEGFR1) is expressed on the tumor vessels and a candidate of tumor vessel-specific peptide vaccination strategy to induce T cell immune response. We conducted the study to confirm the safety and efficacy of combined modality intervention using conventional dose of gemcitabine with peptide vaccination targeting tumor-vessel specific VEGFR1 in case of advanced/inoperable or therapy-resistant pancreatic cancer patients. Gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m^2 (body surface area) will be administered on day 1, day 8, day 15, day 29, day 36, and day 43, respectively. VEGFR1-derived HLA-A*02:01-restricted peptide (VEGFR1-A02-770; TLFWLLLTL) emulsified with Montanide ISA51 will be subcutaneously injected twice weekly for 8 weeks (total 16 doses).
The intention of this trial is to evaluate safety and efficacy of a combination treatment of EndoTAG-1 with Gemcitabine versus Gemcitabine monotherapy.
The purpose of the study is to find out whether the drug celecoxib has beneficial effects on people with pre-cancerous lesions of the pancreas.
