Trial summary

The investigators preliminary data suggests that FOLFOX-A may have equal or superior activity as compared to FOLFIRINOX and appears to be better tolerated. Therefore, FOLFOX-A may be a better regimen in the adjuvant setting for patients with resected pancreatic cancer. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologic proof of primary pancreas invasive adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous cancer, managed with a potentially curative resection (i.e., removal of all gross tumor). Patients with invasive adenocarcinoma that also contains a component of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) are eligible.
  • Interval between definitive tumor-related surgery and registration between 21-70 days.
  • Patients will be staged according to the 6th edition AJCC staging system with pathologic stage T1-3, N0-1, M-0 being eligible.
  • Post resection serum CA19-9 ≤ 180 units/mL within 21 days of registration on study.
  • Preexisting neuropathy < grade 1 (per CTCAE).
  • ECOG performance status 0 or 1.
Show all 17Show fewer
  • Age ≥ 18
  • Not pregnant and not nursing. Women of child bearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 7 days prior to beginning of treatment. Post-menopausal women (surgical menopause of lack of menses >12 months) do not need to have a pregnancy test, please document status.
  • Women of childbearing potential and sexually active males must use an effective contraception method during treatment and for three months after completing treatment.
  • Required Initial Laboratory Values:
  • Neutrophils ≥ 1,500/mm3
  • Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3
  • Creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL -or- creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN
  • AST (SGOT) \& ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN
  • Alkaline phosphatases < 2.5x ULN
  • Abdominal CT scan with contrast and chest CT/x-ray (CT of chest preferred) within 6 weeks of registration on study. Patients can have PET/MRI of the chest/abdomen instead.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with serious medical risk factors involving any of the major organ systems such that the investigator considers it unsafe for the patient to receive FOLFOX-A
  • Prior hypersensitivity to Oxaliplatin or Abraxane that in the investigators opinion would put the patient at risk if re-exposed
  • Patients with islet cell (neuroendocrine) tumors, cystadenomas, cystadenocarcinomas, carcinoid tumors, duodenal carcinomas, distal bile duct, and ampullary carcinomas.
  • Prior systemic chemotherapy for pancreas cancer; note that prior chemotherapy for a different cancer is allowable. Patients must not have received chemotherapy for a year prior to registering on study
  • No prior invasive malignancy within the prior two years. However, patients with an early stage malignancy that is not expected to require treatment in the next 2 years (such as early stage, resected breast cancer or asymptomatic prostate cancer) are eligible. This must be documented.

About this study

Official title: BrUOG 295:Adjuvant FOLFOX-A For Resected Pancreatic Cancer: A Phase II Brown University Oncology Research Group Trial

The investigators preliminary data suggests that FOLFOX-A may have equal or superior activity as compared to FOLFIRINOX and appears to be better tolerated. Therefore, FOLFOX-A may be a better regimen in the adjuvant setting for patients with resected pancreatic cancer. This protocol will obtain preliminary data on safety and disease-free and overall survival following administration of FOLFOX-A for patients with resected pancreatic cancer.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Feasibility of Adjuvant FOLFOX-A

    Determination of the feasibility of administration of adjuvant FOLFOX-A in patients who have undergone resection of pancreatic cancer.Successful administration of FOLFOX-A will be defined as the ability to receive ≥8 cycles of FOLFOX-A.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Disease-free Survival

    To evaluate the disease-free survival for patients with resected pancreatic cancer treated with adjuvant FOLFOX-A.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing FOLFOXA in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by Brown University at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Sep 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Feasibility of Adjuvant FOLFOX-A (time frame: Up to 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2022.
