Brief Summary:
This is a single-institution, single-arm phase II trial of Durvalumab combined with Radiation Therapy (RT) for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients who have progressed through first-line chemotherapy.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas Drug: Durvalumab Radiation: Radiation Therapy Phase 2

Detailed Description:

This is a single-institution phase II trial of Durvalumab combined with Radiation Therapy (RT) for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients who have progressed through first-line chemotherapy. Pancreatic cancer patients who have received second-line or greater chemotherapy in the metastatic setting are not eligible. Target accrual is 39 patients. Durvalumab 1500 mg (or 20 mg/m2 if <30 kg) IV every 4 weeks will be started and continued during RT and afterwards until the patient experiences either unacceptable toxicity or disease progression, whichever comes first. Patients must have at least three radiographically measurable pancreatic cancer lesions in different organs that have not previously received RT, two of which will receive RT. Eligible lesions include either the primary pancreatic tumor in unresected patients or distant metastatic lesions. Three fractions of 8 Gy each will be prescribed to one lesion during Week 3. Three fractions of 8 Gy each will be prescribed to the second lesion during Week 5.

This is a single-arm trial with continuous monitoring of acute non-hematologic toxicity with the primary endpoint of progression free survival. Efficacy will be evaluated by time to progression or death, whichever comes first, and compared to historical control of chemotherapy alone as reported in the literature.

Drug: Durvalumab
Durvalumab 1500 mg (or 20 mg/m2 if <30 kg) IV every 4 weeks

24 Gy in 3 daily fractions to one lesion during Week 3 and 24 Gy in 3 daily fractions to the second lesion during Week 5.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression free survival [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
    Time from initiation of durvalumab to progression per RECIST 1.1 or death, whichever comes first.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
    ORR is defined as the percentage of the patients who have a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as defined by RECIST 1.1. The patient's best overall response rate defined as the best response recorded from the start of the treatment until disease progression.

  2. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
    The clinical benefit rate is the percentage of patients that have achieved a CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) as defined by RECIST 1.1

  3. Time to in-field progression [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
    The time to in-field progression is defined as the time from initiation of treatment to progression of disease within the radiation field.

  4. Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
    OS is defined as the time from first treatment until death. Patients who are alive will be censored at the last date of patient contact.

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Biopsy-proven metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma with progression through standard first-line chemotherapy. Chemotherapy given as part of prior chemoradiation does not count as a line of therapy. Chemotherapy given as part of prior chemoradiation in the setting of non-metastatic pancreatic cancer does not count as a line of therapy.
  • At least 3 radiographically distinct pancreatic cancer lesions that are measurable by RECIST 1.1 criteria, including 2 that are eligible for RT.
  • Lesions that will receive RT are separated by ≥3 cm and none >7 cm in greatest dimension.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Life expectancy of ≥12 weeks.
  • Adequate liver and kidney function.
  • Adequate blood cell count.
  • Female subjects must either be of non-reproductive potential or must have a negative serum pregnancy test upon study entry.
  • Subject is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations including follow up

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study
  • Previous enrollment in the present study.
  • Any previous treatment with a programmed cell death 1 or programmed cell death ligand 1 inhibitor including Durvalumab.
  • Prior RT to any lesion that would receive RT on this protocol.
  • Prior RT that could lead to an unacceptably high risk of clinically significant normal tissue injury due to high cumulative normal tissue dose as determined by the investigator.
  • Subjects who have received more than 1 line of chemotherapy in the metastatic setting.
  • History of another primary malignancy except for: 1) malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease ≥3 years before the first dose of study drug and of low potential risk for recurrence; 2) adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease; 3) adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease (e.g., cervical cancer in situ).
  • Receipt of the last dose of anti-cancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, biologic therapy, tumor embolization, monoclonal antibodies, other investigational agent) ≤14 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
  • Mean QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) ≥470 ms calculated from 3 electrocardiograms (ECGs) using Fridericia's Correction.
