RECRUITING

Glufosfamide Versus 5-FU in Second Line Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The study is designed to assess whether glufosfamide provides additional survival benefit as compared to bolus 5-FU in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who have already progressed or failed therapy on a gemcitabine based first line regimen.

Official Title

A Randomized Phase 3 Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Glufosfamide Compared With Fluorouracil (5-FU) in Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Previously Treated With Gemcitabine

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * At least 18 years of age
  2. * Pancreatic adenocarcinoma proven either by histology (surgical biopsy) or cytology (CT- or endoscopic-guided)
  3. * Metastatic pancreatic cancer
  4. * Disease progression during or after treatment with gemcitabine (alone or in combination with other agents; at regular, not radiosensitizing, doses)
  5. * Measurable or nonmeasurable disease by RECIST criteria (at least one target or nontarget lesion)
  6. * Recovered from reversible toxicities of prior therapy
  7. * ECOG performance status 0-1
  8. * All women of childbearing potential and all men must agree to use effective means of contraception (surgical sterilization or the use of barrier contraception with either a condom or diaphragm in conjunction with spermicidal gel or an IUD) from entry into the study through 6 months after the last dose of chemotherapy
  9. * Ability to understand the purposes and risks of the study and has signed a written informed consent form approved by the investigator's IRB/Ethics Committee
  1. * More than one prior systemic therapy regimen for metastatic pancreatic cancer (radiosensitizing doses of 5-FU or gemcitabine at the time of initial radiotherapy do not count as a prior systemic therapy regimen)
  2. * Hormonal therapy, radiation therapy, biologic therapy, chemotherapy or other systemic antitumor therapy for pancreatic cancer within 14 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1
  3. * Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (patients with type 2 diabetes controlled with oral glucose lowering agents and the occasional use of insulin are permitted in the study)
  4. * Symptomatic brain metastases (baseline CT scan is not required in asymptomatic patients)
  5. * Active clinically significant infection requiring antibiotics
  6. * Known HIV positive or active hepatitis B or C
  7. * Recent (one year) history or symptoms of cardiovascular disease (NYHA Class 2, 3, or 4), particularly coronary artery disease, arrhythmias or conduction defects with risk of cardiovascular instability, uncontrolled hypertension, clinically significant pericardial effusion, or congestive heart failure
  8. * No other active malignancies (other than treated non-melanoma skin cancer or treated in situ cancer) within the past year
  9. * Major surgery within 3 weeks of the start of study treatment, without complete recovery
  10. * Clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory test results (including complete blood count, chemistry panel including electrolytes, and urinalysis)
  11. * Hemoglobin \<9 g/dL (may receive transfusion or erythropoietin to maintain)
  12. * ANC \<1500/μL
  13. * Platelet count \<100,000/μL
  14. * Total bilirubin \> 1.5×ULN
  15. * AST/ALT \> 2.5-fold above ULN (\>5-fold above ULN if liver metastases)
  16. * Phosphorus \< LLN
  17. * Potassium \< LLN
  18. * Serum creatinine \> 2 mg/dL
  19. * Creatinine clearance \< 60 mL/min (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault formula)
  20. * Females who are pregnant or breast-feeding
  21. * Participation in an investigational drug or device study within 14 days of the first day of dosing on this study
  22. * Concomitant disease or condition that could interfere with the conduct of the study, or that would, in the opinion of the investigator, pose an unacceptable risk to the patient in this study
  23. * Any medical history, concurrent disease or concomitant medication which could reasonably predispose the patient to renal insufficiency while on study treatment
  24. * Contraindication or unwillingness to undergo multiple CT scans
  25. * Unwillingness or inability to comply with the study protocol for any other reason
