Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a single arm, phase II trial, of 45 patients with locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The efficacy of the novel drug and mitochondrial inhibitor, CPI-613, in conjunction with standard-of-care FOLFRINOX, as a first-line therapy will be evaluated. Pre-treatment, diagnostic biopsy tissue will be collected when available, and clinical data will be evaluated to determine if the combination results in improved overall survival compared to historical experience.

Description:

Primary Objective:

1) To determine if CPI-613 increases overall survival (OS) when used in combination with mFOLFIRINOX, in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

Secondary (Exploratory) Objectives:

1. To assess the safety of CPI-613 + mFOLFIRINOX combination in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

2. To collect tissue specimens for future correlative studies

3. To estimate median progression free survival (PFS) when CPI- 613 is used in combination with mFOLFIRINOX, in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

4. To estimate the percent resected when CPI-613 is used in combination with mFOLFIRINOX in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer

Recruitment information / eligibility

• Enrollment: 0
• Est. completion date: October 2020
• Est. primary completion date: October 5, 2019
• Accepts healthy volunteers: No
• Gender: All
• Age group: 18 Years to 80 Years

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Cytologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma

• Locally advanced (including unresectable or borderline resectable) pancreatic cancer based on CT imaging, as determined by the PI

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status being 0-1 within 1 week of planned start of therapy.

• Expected survival >3 months.

• Male and female patients 18 to not older than 80 years of age

• Women of child-bearing potential (i.e., women who are pre-menopausal or not surgically sterile) must use accepted contraceptive methods (abstinence, intrauterine device (IUD), oral contraceptive or double barrier device) during the study, and must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 1 week prior to treatment initiation.

• Fertile men must practice effective contraceptive methods during the study, unless documentation of infertility exists.

• Laboratory values =2 weeks must be:

• Adequate hematologic (granulocyte count =1500/mm3; white blood cell [WBC] =3500 cells/mm3; platelet count =100,000 cells/mm3; absolute neutrophil count [ANC] =1500 cells/mm3; and hemoglobin =9 g/dL).

• Adequate hepatic function (aspartate aminotransferase [AST/SGOT] =3x upper normal limit [UNL], alanine aminotransferase [ALT/SGPT] =3x UNL, bilirubin =1.5x UNL).

• Adequate renal function (serum creatinine =2.0 mg/dL or 177 µmol/L).

• Adequate coagulation ("International Normalized Ratio" or INR must be <1.5) unless on therapeutic blood thinners.

• No evidence of clinically significant active infection and no serious infection within the past month.

• Mentally competent, ability to understand and willingness to sign the informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients under the age of 18 or older than 80 years of age

• Endocrine or acinar pancreatic carcinoma

• Resectable pancreatic cancer

• Metastatic pancreatic cancer based on imaging

• Prior surgical or medical treatment for pancreatic cancer

• Patients receiving any other standard or investigational treatment for their cancer with a primary goal of improving survival within the past 2 weeks prior to initiation of CPI-613 treatment.

• Serious medical illness that would potentially increase patients' risk for toxicity

• Any active uncontrolled bleeding, and any patients with a bleeding diathesis (e.g., active peptic ulcer disease).

• Pregnant women, or women of child-bearing potential not using reliable means of contraception (because the teratogenic potential of CPI-613 is unknown).

• Lactating females.

• Fertile men unwilling to practice contraceptive methods during the study period.

• Life expectancy less than 3 months.

• Any condition or abnormality which may, in the opinion of the investigator, compromise the safety of patients.

• Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements.

• Active including but not limited to symptomatic congestive heart failure, symptomatic coronary artery disease, symptomatic angina pectoris, or symptomatic myocardial infarction.

• Patients with a history of myocardial infarction that is <3 months prior to registration.

• Evidence of active infection, or serious infection within the past month.

• Patients with known HIV infection.

• Any condition or abnormality which may, in the opinion of the investigator, compromise the safety of the patient.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Overall Survival	Overall survival defined as the interval between enrollment and death.	Enrollment to death
Secondary	Progression free survival (PFS)	Progression free survival time is defined as time from enrollment until progression or death. The distribution of PFS will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.	From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months
