Evaluating NALIRIFOX vs mGAP for Pancreatic Cancer

This study is testing two different chemotherapy combinations for people with pancreatic cancer that is locally advanced (meaning it hasn't spread far) or metastatic (meaning it has spread to other parts of the body). One combination is called NALIRIFOX, which includes Liposomal Irinotecan, Oxaliplatin, 5-Fluorouracil, and Leucovorin. The other combination is called mGAP, which includes Gemcitabine. The goal is to see which treatment is more effective at shrinking the cancer, measured by how many patients respond to the treatment. This study is for adults aged 18 and older who have not received treatment for their pancreatic cancer before. The study aims to enroll 52 participants.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Provision of signed and dated informed consent form
Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study
Male or female, aged ≥18 years
For females of reproductive potential: use of highly effective contraception for at least 1 month before screening and agreement to use such a method during study participation and for an additional 9 months after the end of the last dose of study medication administration
Female patients including WOCBP must test negative for pregnancy at the time of screening based on a urine or serum pregnancy test.
For males of reproductive potential: use of condoms or other methods to ensure effective contraception with a partner during the study and for 4 months after the last dose of study medication.
Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic PDAC that has not been previously treated
Radiographically confirmed measurable (per RECIST 1.1) locally advanced or metastatic PDAC per the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) definition.
Inoperable status due to the presence of locally advanced, unresectable disease with or metastases.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500/mm3 without the use of hemopoietic growth factors within 7 days before treatment
Platelet count ≥100,000/mm3.
International normalized ratio (INR) \<1.5 unless the patient is receiving anticoagulation therapy, in which case a therapeutic INR is acceptable. Anticoagulation therapy with low-molecular weight heparin or warfarin, whether medically indicated, is permitted.
Adequate renal function, as evidenced by serum/plasma creatinine level \<1.6 mg/dL

Exclusion

Pregnancy or lactation
Treatment with another investigational drug or other intervention within 30 days of protocol initiation.
Known hypersensitivity/allergic reaction to any of the components of the therapeutic agents in mGAP or NALIRIFOX.
Any other medical or social condition deemed by the investigator to be likely to interfere with a subject's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate, and participate in the study or who is likely to interfere with the interpretation of the results.
Unwilling or unable to comply with study procedures and/or study visits.
Uncontrolled, active infection
Histologic diagnosis other than adenocarcinoma.
Medical co-morbidities, that preclude major abdominal surgery
  • Overall response rate (ORR) assessed by imaging.Up to 30 months

    Overall response rate (ORR) defined as the proportion of patients with a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) by RECIST v1.1 as assessed by imaging completed every 8 weeks.
