Clinical Trial Summary

In this Phase II study a dose of 2.8 mg (eight 0.35 mg siG12D-LODERs) will be administered in 12-week cycles to patients with unresectable or borderline resectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer combined with chemotherapy treatment. Primary Outcome: - ORR at 6 months.

Description:

In this Phase II study a dose of 2.8 mg (eight 0.35 mg siG12D-LODERs) will be administered in 12-week cycles to patients with unresectable or borderline resectable LAPC combined with chemotherapy treatment (Gemcitabine+nab-Paclitaxel or Folfirinox or modified Folfirinox). This will be a study to assess the response rate of the siG12D-LODER in patients with unresectable or borderline resectable LAPC. The study is of a single arm design with one arm receiving siG12D-LODER + chemotherapy. The investigational agent siG12D-LODER is a miniature biodegradable bio polymeric matrix that encompasses the drug, designed and produced by Silenseed Ltd. The implantation of LODERs is selected to meet current gastroenterology endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) biopsy procedures, proved to be highly effective and safe. siG12D-LODER has been studied in the escalating dose Phase I study of 15 patients, and results showed high safety and tolerability profiles, with no single DLT.

1. Subjects with resectable pancreatic cancer.

2. Evidence of metastatic disease.

3. Other malignancy that would interfere with the current intervention.

4. Any evidence of ascites (beyond trace).

5. Bulky celiac adenopathy (=2.5 cm) or non-adenocarcinoma histology.

6. Previously treated malignancies, except for adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, in situ cancer, or other cancers from which the subject has been disease-free for at least 2 years.

7. History of clinically significant coagulopathy.

8. Major surgery, other than diagnostic surgery, within 4 weeks prior to study entry without complete recovery.

9. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV, cardiac disease, myocardial infarction within 4 months prior to the first chemotherapy cycle Day 1, unstable arrhythmia or symptomatic peripheral arterial vascular disease.
