Brief Summary:
To assess treatment of GV1001 concurrent with Gemcitabine/Capecitabine versus Gemcitabine/Capecitabine alone in locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer patients.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Pancreatic Cancer Drug: GV1001 Drug: Gemcitabine Drug: Capecitabine Phase 3

Detailed Description:

This study is designed as a phase III, prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial comparing GV1001 concurrent with Gemcitabine/Capecitabine versus Gemcitabine/Capecitabine alone in treating locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer patients. Patients will be treated until disease progression and will be subject to follow-up until death.

Patients will be randomized equally between the two arms:

  1. Gemcitabine and Capecitabine
  2. GV1001+ Gemcitabine and Capecitabine

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 148 participants
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Multicenter, Parallel Design, Phase III Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of GV1001 Concurrent With Gemcitabine/Capecitabine Versus Gemcitabine/Capecitabine Alone in Treating Locally Advanced and Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Patients
Study Start Date : November 2015
Estimated Primary Completion Date : May 2018
Estimated Study Completion Date : May 2018


Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: GV1001 + gemcitabine/capecitabine Drug: GV1001
At week 1, GV1001 will be administered intradermally on day 1, day 3 and day 5. This will be followed by a once weekly schedule for weeks 2, 3, 4 and 6. After that, GV1001 will be administered once monthly until withdrawal from trial treatment due to patient choice, intolerable toxicity or disease progression. GM-CSF will be used as an adjuvant, given 10-15 minutes prior to each administration of GV1001.
Other Name: Tertomotide

Drug: Gemcitabine
Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m^2 will be intravenously administered on day 1,8 and 15 followed by 7 days' rest.

Drug: Capecitabine
Capecitabine 830 mg/m^2 will be orally given in the morning and evening (total dose of 1660 mg/m^2) for 21 days followed by 7 days' rest.

Active Comparator: gemcitabine/capecitabine Drug: Gemcitabine
Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m^2 will be intravenously administered on day 1,8 and 15 followed by 7 days' rest.

Drug: Capecitabine
Capecitabine 830 mg/m^2 will be orally given in the morning and evening (total dose of 1660 mg/m^2) for 21 days followed by 7 days' rest.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Survival [ Time Frame: one year ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time to tumor progression (TTP) [ Time Frame: one year ]
  2. Objective response rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: one year ]
    Objective response rate assesses by CT scan (RECIST and irRC criteria).

  3. Clinical benefit response (CBR) [ Time Frame: one year ]
  4. Clinical response with eotaxin level (baseline of serum eotaxin level, pg/mL) [ Time Frame: one year ]
  5. Quality of Life using EORTC QLQ-C30 [ Time Frame: up to one year ]
  6. Quality of Life using EQ-5D-3L [ Time Frame: up to one year ]
  7. Change in CA19-9 (Serum cancer antigen) over time [ Time Frame: one year ]
    Cancer antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) is used to help differentiate between cancer of the pancreas and other conditions, as well as to monitor treatment response and recurrence.

  8. Toxicity according to the NCI CTCAE v4.03 [ Time Frame: one year ]

Ages Eligible for Study:   19 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age ≥ 19 years
  2. Histologically or cytologically proven pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma carcinoma or undifferentiated carcinoma of the pancreas.
  3. Locally advanced or metastatic disease precluding curative surgical resection or patients who have relapsed following previously resected pancreatic cancer.
  4. Contrast enhanced CT scan of the thorax, abdomen and pelvis within 28 days (and up to a maximum of 32 days) prior to commencing treatment.
  5. Unidimensionally measurable disease (from CT scan) in accordance with the RECIST guidelines.
  6. ECOG performance status 0, 1 or 2.
  7. Adequate organ function as determined by the following laboratory values:

    • Platelets ≥100 x 10^9 /L
    • WBC ≥ 3 x 10^9 /L
    • ANC ≥1.5 x 10^9 /L
    • Serum total bilirubin ≤ 2.0 mg/dL
    • CCr (Cockcroft & Gault) > 50 mL/min
  8. Life expectancy ≥ 90 days
  9. Fully informed written consent given.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Brain metastasis or meningeal carcinomatosis.
  2. Clinically significant serious disease or organ system disease not currently controlled on present therapy.
  3. Previous chemotherapy for locally advanced and metastatic disease. Previously adjuvant chemotherapy for resected pancreatic cancer will be permitted providing chemotherapy was completed more than 12 months previously.
