This is a prospective, randomized, open-label phase 2 study in patients with metastatic PC or BTC refractory or intolerant to at least one line of prior systemic chemotherapy with gemcitabine or platinum-containing regimens to determine the efficacy and safety of nivolumab or nivolumab plus ipilimumab administered concurrently with high dose RT. Patients with metastatic PC or BTC who are feasible candidates for radiation and biopsy of primary and/or metastatic lesions will be included.
The main objective of this trial is to evaluate every 2 months alternating nab-paclitaxel/gemcitabine and FOLFIRI.3 versus nab-paclitaxel + gemcitabine, regarding the progression of disease at 6 months.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug known as galunisertib administered in combination with the anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibody durvalumab in participants with refractory metastatic pancreatic cancer.
The majority patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer have metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. The prognosis is extremely poor with a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. Treatment with chemotherapy can improve efficacy, but still the median progression-free survival in patients receiving nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine is only 5,5 months and median overall survival is less than one year. There is a urgent need for tools for predicting the efficacy of the treatment. The current trial aims at investigating the biomarker potential of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in metastatic pancreatic cancer patients treated by gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel.
Study Part 1: To assess the safety and tolerability, and to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BAX2398 in combination with 5-FU/calcium levofolinate in Japanese patients. Study Part 2: To compare the efficacy of BAX2398 in combination with 5-FU/calcium levofolinate versus 5-FU/calcium levofolinate as assessed by Progression Free Survival (PFS) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1).
Current studies resulted in a superiority of a combination of nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine vs. gemcitabine mono therapy, but no data are available yet on the quality of life (QoL) under this combination therapy. In the framework of a German multicenter prospective, observational study ('QoliXane'), detailed QoL-data are now collected. QoL development under treatment will be analyzed and data will be compared to existing data of the gemcitabine mono therapy. QoL and course of therapy are collected using the EORTC C30 questionnaires once a month over a 6-month period. Additionally patients are requested to answer a supplementary questionnaire addressing e.g. fears related to QoL deterioration and side effects of chemotherapy. Primary endpoint is the proportion of patients with maintained Global Health Status/QoL at 3 months (10 points threshold). 600 patients shall be enrolled at about 90 study sites in Germany.
ALPACA is an interventional, multicentre, open-label, randomized active-controlled phase II trial with two arms. To estimate the treatment effect on overall survival, feasibility, efficacy and safety of alternating treatment cycles of gemcitabine monotherapy followed by nab-paclitaxel/gemcitabine relative to standard continuing nab-paclitaxel/gemcitabine cycles in first-line treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer in patients having received 3 cycles of induction therapy with standard nab-paclitaxel/gemcitabine.
This observational program collects data on tolerability, safety and efficacy regarding the use of Abraxane in metastatic pancreatic cancer patients in the daily clinical routine. Additionally data on dosage that is actually used in these patients will be collected. Patients who have pancreatic cancer and additional diseases can be documented in this study, too. Collected data might generate learnings on the optimal use of Abraxane in the daily routine setting.
