Brief Summary:
This trial will consist of 2 parts. Phase 1 will use a Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) dose escalation design of GP-2250 as intravenous single-dose monotherapy, followed by combination therapy with gemcitabine in subjects with advanced pancreatic cancer. A Simon Two-Stage Design (Phase 2) will follow this to assess preliminary clinical activity of GP-2250 in combination with gemcitabine at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in subjects with advanced pancreatic cancer previously treated with FOLFIRINOX but never exposed to therapeutic gemcitabine

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Pancreatic Cancer, Adult Drug: GP-2250 Phase 1 Phase 2

Detailed Description:

In Phase 1 of the study, the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) assessment period will be 5 weeks---one-week run-in at each dose level of intravenous GP-2250 monotherapy followed by a full cycle of GP-2250 plus gemcitabine (3 weeks on and 1 week off). Single-subject cohorts will be enrolled until the occurrence of the first DLT, at which point cohorts will be expanded to 3 subjects. If there are no DLTs observed within the first 3 single subject cohorts, there will be an expansion to 3 subject cohorts beginning with Cohort#4. Between single-subject cohorts, dose escalation increments of GP-2250 will be 100%. Beginning with the Cohort#4 further dose escalation increments between cohorts will be 35% to 45%. Subjects may continue to receive treatment until disease progression by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.1 criteria, clinical disease progression as assessed by the Investigator, development of a DLT (in Phase 1) or unacceptable toxicity, the subject requests withdrawal, the subject meets one of the criteria for treatment discontinuation, the Investigator determines the risks outweigh the benefits of continuing therapy, withdrawal of subject consent, or closure of the trial by the Sponsor.

In Phase 2, subjects will receive weekly doses of GP-2250 in combination with a standard dose of gemcitabine for 3 consecutive weeks (3 weeks on therapy and 1 week off). A Simon Two-Stage design will be used. In the first stage, 10 subjects will be enrolled. If at least 2 responses are observed, an additional 19 subjects will be enrolled. If at the end of the Phase 2 stage of the trial at least 6/29 responders are observed, it can be concluded that the response rate (RR) with GP 2250+gemcitabine is consistent with that of approximately 30%. Subjects may continue to receive treatment until withdrawn by the Investigator, the subject requests withdrawal, unacceptable toxicity occurs, the subject meets one of the criteria for treatment discontinuation, or disease progression, or closure of the trial by the sponsor.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) [ Time Frame: 12-24 months ]
    Dose Limiting Toxicity - dose at which toxicity causes cessation of dose escalations.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA-19-9) [ Time Frame: 12-24 months ]
    A type of antigen released by pancreatic cancer cells and usually changes as disease progression or regressions occurs. Measurement of changes, if any, will be assessed in each patient.
