Stage ?A Pancreatic Cancer Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Prospective, Multi-centric, Phase Ⅲ, Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Second-Line Adjuvant Therapy With Nab-Paclitaxel Plus Gemcitabine (AG) Versus Oxaliplatin Plus Folinic Acid and Fluorouracil (OFF) for Gemcitabine-Refractory Pancreatic Cancer After Curative Resection
The purpose of this study is to investigate the activity and safety of second-line adjuvant therapy with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine (AG) versus oxaliplatin plus folinic acid and fluorouracil (OFF) for gemcitabine-refractory pancreatic cancer after curative resection.

Inclusion Criteria: - Signed informed content obtained prior to treatment - Age = 18 years and = 75 years - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2 - Patients must have histologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma (or any mixed pathology if adenocarcinoma is predominant) after R0 or R1 resection. The pathological staging does not exceed the stage ?B. And the patients have received gemcitabine as adjuvant chemotherapy after curative resection. - There is progression or recurrence of tumor during the course of adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine, or within 6 months after the whole courses of treatment. - No severe defects in hematological system, immune system, cardiac function and pulmonary function. - White blood cell (WBC) = 4 × 10^9/L; Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1.5 × 10^9/L; Platelets (PLT) = 100 × 10^9/L; Hemoglobin (Hgb) = 9 g/dL - Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (SGOT))/ alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT)) = 2.5 × institutional upper limit of normal (ULN); Total bilirubin (TBIL) = ULN; Creatinine (CRE) = 1.5 × ULN - Prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR) = 1.5 × ULN - The patients are willing to comply to the study plan and other requirements. Exclusion Criteria: - There is another malignant tumor with the patient. - Patients who have received any form of anti-tumor therapy within 4 weeks prior to the enrollment, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, interventional chemoembolization, radiofrequency ablation, and molecular targeted therapy - Use of any other investigational agents within 4 weeks prior to the enrollment. - The progression or recurrence of tumor occurs after 6 months of the course of the adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine. - Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, internal hemorrhage, pancreatic leakage, bile leakage, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. - History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biological composition to the drugs. - Metabolic acidosis, acute or chronic, including ketoacidosis - Pregnant or nursing women - Any event or condition that is possible to harm the safety of the patients or the integrities of data, including severe medical risk factors, medical conditions, and laboratory disorders. - Patients who are unwilling or unable to comply with study procedures, or may be absent from the observation for more than 7 days. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Overall survival | To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of second-line adjuvant therapy with AG versus OFF in terms of overall survival for gemcitabine-refractory pancreatic cancer after curative resection. Outpatient visit, phone interview | From date of enrollment until the date of death from any cause, assessed 2 cycles during the therapy and 3 months thereafter up to 24 months; Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days for AG regimen and 42 days for OFF regimen). | No |
| Secondary | Objective Response Rate | To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of two regimens in terms of objective response rate. Computed tomography (CT) scan | Complete Remission% + Partial Remission %, assessed 2 cycles during the therapy and 3 months thereafter up to 24 months; Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days for AG regimen and 42 days for OFF regimen). | No |
| Secondary | Time to Remission | To evaluate the time to remission of patients treated with the two regimens. Computed tomography (CT) scan | From date of enrollment until the date of remission, assessed 2 cycles during the therapy and 3 months thereafter up to 24 months; Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days for AG regimen and 42 days for OFF regimen). | No |
| Secondary | Progression-Free Survival | To evaluate the progression-free survival of patients treated with the two regimens. Computed tomography (CT) scan | From date of enrollment until the date of first documented progression, assessed 2 cycles during the therapy and 3 months thereafter up to 24 months; Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days for AG regimen and 42 days for OFF regimen). | No |
