FL118 for Treating Patients With Advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Summary

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of FL118 in treating patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). FL118 is a small anti-tumor molecule that inhibits the expression of multiple cancer-associated anti-apoptotic proteins. An anti-apoptotic protein is a protein that interferes with or inhibits cell death. In adults, apoptosis is used to rid the body of cells that have been damaged beyond repair. Apoptosis also plays a role in preventing cancer. If apoptosis is for some reason prevented, it can lead to uncontrolled cell production that can subsequently develop into a tumor. FL118 has been shown to inhibit or block the proteins that prevent damaged/mutated (genetically changed) cells from dying, and, by doing so, prevent the growth of cancerous cells and tumor development.
