Study of Nanoliposomal Irinotecan (Nal-IRI)-Containing Regimens Versus Nab-paclitaxel Plus Gemcitabine in Patients With Previously Untreated, Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Summary

This is an open-label, phase 2 non-comparative study to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of nal-IRI in combination with other anticancer therapies in patients not previously treated for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. This study will assess the following regimen: • nal-IRI + 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)/leucovorin (LV) + oxaliplatin The study will be conducted in two parts: Part 1, consisting of an initial dose exploration (Part 1A) followed by dose expansion (Part 1B) of the irinotecan liposome injection +5-FU/LV + oxaliplatin regimen and Part 2, consisting of a comparison of irinotecan liposome injection-containing regimen versus nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine. The comparative Part 2 was removed in a protocol amendment, dated 11 April 2018 (Version 6.0), before it was initiated, as this comparative part of the study is being undertaken as a stand-alone phase III study D-US-60010-001. This CSR only pertains to the single-arm dose exploration and dose expansion Part 1 results and no further reference is made to the comparative Part 2.
