A Phase I/Ib Pilot Trial, Single Arm, Open Label, of Protein-Bound Paclitaxel, Cisplatin, and Gemcitabine (GCN) Combined With Tumor Treatment Fields (TTF) in Patient With Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Summary
This is a Phase I/Ib trial, single-center, non-randomized, open-label study of Protein-bound Paclitaxel, Cisplatin, And Gemcitabine (GCN) Combined with Tumor Treatment Fields (TTF) and G+TTF maintenance therapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Detailed description
GCN is predicted to be the front-line therapy for biliary and pancreatic cancer in the future given excellent results of current early clinical trials (ORR ≥ 67% in pancreatic cancer). This will change standard of care for front-line therapy in patients with stage IV pancreatic cancer. In this cohort of patients' tolerability after 6 cycles of therapy will be a challenge. Investigators hypothesize that developing a maintenance strategy with TTF+G will be cutting edge approach and can potentially transform front-line standard of care therapy in patients with stage IV pancreatic cancer. If this pilot study proves fruitful then a larger study to confirm findings can be conducted.
Arms & interventions
- Combination ProductModified GCN+TTF treatment
The regimen will consist of gemcitabine (G) administered at a dose of 800 mg/m2, cisplatin (C) 30 mg/m2, and protein-bound paclitaxel (N) 150 mg/m2 administered on cycle 1 day 1 and every 2 weeks thereafter and TTF will be administered daily (150kHz 18 hours/day) starting with Cycle 1 Day 1 (dose level 1). One cycle consists of 28 days including 2 chemotherapy treatments (same regimen studied in the PAXG trial: Reni BJC 2016 without capecitabine). After completing 6 cycles, patients will then transition to a maintenance phase of G administered at a dose of 1000 mg/m2 every 2 weeks and daily TTF (150 KHZ 18 hours/day) until progression of disease (POD) per RECIST v1.1.
