Brief Summary
The overarching hypothesis of this trial is that the NAPOLI regimen and alternating cycles of NAPOLI and mFOLFOX6 (seq-NAPOLI-FOLFOX) are superior to the current standard of care gemcitabine/nab-pacli...
Detailed Description
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains an almost uniformly lethal disease. Although there has been significant progress in understanding of the underlying molecular biology of pancreatic canc...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Adult patients ≥ 18 years of age and ≤ 75 years
- Histologically (not cytologically) confirmed diagnosis of metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) \[Stage IV according to UICC TNM edition 8 of 201622: each T, each N, M1\]
- No option for surgical resection or radiation in curative intent
- At least one unidimensionally measurable tumor lesion (according to RECIST 1.1)
- ECOG performance status 0 - 1
- Life expectancy at least 3 months
- Adequate hepatic, renal and bone marrow function, defined as:
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L
- Haemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL
- Thrombocytes ≥ 100 x 109/L
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN. Patients with a biliary stent may be included provided that bilirubin level after stent insertion decreased to ≤ 1.5 x ULN and there is no cholangitis.
- AST/GOT and/or ALT/GPT ≤ 2.5 x ULN or in case of liver metastasis ≤ 5 x ULN)
- Serum creatinine within normal limits or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 as calculated by CKD-EPI formula for patients with serum creatinine levels above or below the institutional normal value.
- Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have a negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy test within 7 days of the first administration of study treatment and they must agree to undergo a further pregnancy tests at monthly intervals and at the end of treatment visit and FCBP must either agree to use and be able to take highly effective contraceptive birth control methods (Pearl Index \< 1) during the course of the study and for at least 1 month after last administration of study treatment. Complete sexual abstinence is acceptable as a highly effective contraceptive method only if the subject is refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire study treatment and at least one month after the discontinuation of study treatment and the reliability of sexual abstinence is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. A female subject following menarche is considered to be of childbearing potential unless she is naturally amenorrhoeic for ≥ 1 year without an alternative medical reason, or unless she is permanently sterile.
- Males must agree to use condoms during the course of the trial and for at least 6 months after last administration of study drugs or practice complete abstinence from heterosexual intercourse.
- Signed and dated informed consent before the start of any specific protocol procedures
- Patient's legal capacity to consent to study participation
Exclusion
- Locally advanced PDAC without metastasis
- Symptomatic/clinically significant ascites (expected indication for repeated paracentesis)
- Known metastatic disease to the brain. Brain imaging is required in symptomatic patients to rule out brain metastases, but is not required in asymptomatic patients.
- Previous palliative chemotherapy or other palliative systemic tumor therapy for metastatic disease of PDAC
- Previous gemcitabine or 5-FU based treatment with exception of gemcitabine/fluoropyrimidine based treatment applied in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting (before/after potential curative R0 or R1 resection) and if the neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy was terminated at least 6 months before randomization
- Previous radiotherapy of PDAC with exception of radiotherapy in the context of a neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment setting that was terminated at least 6 months before randomization
- Any major surgery within the last 4 weeks before randomization
- Clinically significant decrease in performance status within 2 weeks of intended first administration of study medication (by medical history)
- Severe tumor-related cachexia and/or known weight loss \> 15% within one month before study enrollment
- Pre-existing polyneuropathy ≥ grade 2 according to CTCAE version 4.03
- Gastrointestinal disorders that might interfere with the absorption of the study drug and gastrointestinal disorders with diarrhoea as a major symptom (e.g. Crohn's disease, malabsorption), and chronic diarrhoea of any aetiology CTCAE version 4.03 grade ≥ 2
- Any other severe concomitant disease or disorder, which could influence patient's ability to participate in the study and his/her safety during the study or interfere with interpretation of study results e.g. active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, clinically significant cardiovascular disease e.g. cerebrovascular accident (≤ 6 months before study start), myocardial infarction (≤ 6 months before study start), unstable angina, heart failure ≥ NYHA functional classification system grade 2, severe cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication, metabolic dysfunction, severe renal disorder.
- Any other malignancies than PDAC within the last 5 years before study start, except for adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, basal or squamous cell skin cancer
- Hypersensitivity to the study drugs or to any of the excipients or to compounds with similar chemical or biologic composition
- Use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (CYP3A4 inhibitors have to be discontinued at least one week prior to start of study treatment).
- Use or strong UGT1A1 inhibitors or strong CYP3A4 inducers unless there are no therapeutic alternatives.
- Known glucuronidation deficiency (Gilbert's syndrome) (specific screening not required)
- Known DPD deficiency (specific screening not required)
- Requirement for concomitant antiviral treatment with sorivudine or brivudine
- Continuing abuse of alcohol, drugs, or medical drugs
- Pregnant or breast-feeding females or FCBPs unable to either perform highly effective contraceptive measures or practice complete abstinence from heterosexual intercourse
- Current or recent (within 4 weeks prior to randomization) treatment with an investigational drug or participation in an investigational clinical trial
