What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until disease progression per RECIST 1.1 criteria assessed by investigator, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Overall Survival (OS)
OS, is defined as the time from date of randomization until date of death from any cause.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Secondary outcomes (6)
Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability of Ibrutinib and Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine Versus Placebo in Combination With Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine.
This is a measure of percentage of subjects with Treatment Emergent Adverse Events Grade 3 or above collected Up to 30 days after the last participating subject discontinues study drug.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Overall Response Rate
ORR is defined as the percentage of subjects who achieve a complete response or partial response, based on investigator assessment according to RECIST 1.1.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Clinical Benefit Response
Subject achieved a ≥50% reduction in pain intensity (Memorial Pain Assessment Card [MPAC]) or analgesic consumption, or a 20-point or greater improvement in KPS for a period of at least 4 consecutive weeks, without showing any sustained worsening in other parameters.
OR Subject was stable on all of the aforementioned parameters, and showed a marked, sustained weight gain (≥7% increase maintained for ≥4 weeks) not due to fluid accumulation (Burris 1997).
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) Response
The CA19-9 response rate is defined as the percentage of subjects with a decline of 20%, 90%, and other thresholds considered clinically meaningful, from baseline. This is a percentage of patients with > or = 60% reduction from baseline.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Patient-reported Outcome (PRO) by European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30).
Unit is the month: TUDD1 - the time between random \& 1st occurrence of a decrease in QLQ-C30 score ≥10 pts w/o improvement in QoL score of ≥10 points or any further QoL data due to deterioration. The proportion of subjects who met the "responder" criteria prior to subsequent anticancer therapy initiation. Response defined as achievement of a ≥50% reduction in MPAC visual analog scale which measures pain intensity or analgesic consumption, or a ≥20-point improvement from baseline in KPS sustained for a period of ≥ 4 consecutive weeks without showing any sustained worsening from baseline in any of the other parameters OR Subject stable on all parameters (pain and KPS), \& showed a marked, sustained weight gain (≥7% increase from baseline maintained for ≥4 weeks) not due to fluid accumulation.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months
Rate of Venous Thromboembolic Events (VTE)
The VTE rate is defined as percentage of subjects with Venous thromboembolic events (SMQ) per investigator assessment.
Measured: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Ibrutinib, Gemcitabine and Nab-paclitaxel in people with Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma, run by Pharmacyclics LLC. at 86 sites in 8 countries.
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 14 inclusion and 6 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 30 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 86 sites in United States, France, Italy, Spain, South Korea and 3 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 16 Nov 2020). 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?
Progression Free Survival (PFS) (time frame: Results at an overall median follow-up of 24.87 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Dec 2020.
