What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLT)

    DLT period was defined as first treatment cycle for Cohort 1, and first dose of AZD5069 and MEDI4736 to end of Cycle 1 or until a participant experienced a DLT, whichever occurs first for Cohort 2.

    A DLT was defined as any of below listed laboratory abnormalities or adverse events (AE) related to MEDI4736 collected during DLT period.

    • Liver transaminase elevation >= 5× but <= 8× upper limit of normal (ULN) that doesn't resolve to Grade 2 within 5 days
    • Transaminase elevation > 8× ULN or total bilirubin > 5× ULN
    • Any Grade 4 immune-related AE (irAE) not attributed to local tumor response, Grade >=3 colitis, Grade >=2 pneumonitis that doesn't resolve to <= Grade 1 within 7 days, Grade 3 irAE, that doesn't resolve to Grade <=1 or baseline status within 14 days
    • Any Grade >=3 non-irAE toxicity that doesn't resolve to Grade <=1 or baseline status within 14 days A DLT was defined as any Grade 3 or worse AE related to AZD5069 that occurs from first dose of AZD5069 up to end of DLT period.

    Measured: Cohort 1: From time of first dose of MEDI4736 on Day 1 up to Day 28 of Cycle 1 and Cohort 2: From time of first dose of AZD5069 and MEDI4736 on Day 1 up to Day 28 of Cycle 1 or until a participant experiences a DLT, whichever occurs first.

  2. Number of Participants With AEs

    An AE is the development of an undesirable medical condition or deterioration of a pre-existing medical condition following or during exposure to study treatment, whether or not considered causally related to study treatment. An undesirable medical condition can be symptoms, signs or abnormal results of an investigation. A serious AE (SAE) is an AE that fulfills one or more following criteria: death, life-threatening, in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital abnormality or birth defect, and an important medical event that may jeopardize participant or may require medical intervention to prevent one of outcomes listed above. AEs leading to discontinuation of study treatment were those with action taken was 'Drug Permanently Discontinued' for any study treatment. Only treatment emergent AEs were presented.

    Measured: From first dose of study treatment administration (Day 1) until 90 days after the last dose of IP or initiation of the first subsequent anticancer therapy (whichever occurred first), approximately 30 months.

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR) in Cohort 2

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). A confirmed response of CR/PR means that a response of CR/PR is recorded at 1 visit and confirmed by repeat imaging, preferably at the next regularly scheduled imaging visit and not less than 4 weeks after the visit when the response was first observed with no evidence of progression between the initial and CR/PR confirmation visit. CR is defined as disappearance of all target lesions (TLs) since baseline. Any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs must have a reduction in short axis to <10 millimeters (mm). PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of TLs, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters as long as criteria for PD were not met. ORR was determined using Investigator assessments according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1).

    Measured: RECIST assessments performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment), every 6 weeks +/-7 days for first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks +/-7 days thereafter until confirmed objective disease progression. Up to approximately 30 months.

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Duration of Response (DoR) in Cohort 2

    DoR was defined as the time from the first documentation of CR/PR (which is subsequently confirmed) until the date of progression/death, or the last evaluable RECIST assessment for participants that did not progress or did progress after 2 missed visits of the last evaluable assessment (or first dose). PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of TLs, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. DoR was determined using Investigator assessments according to RECIST v1.1 and was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier technique.

    Measured: RECIST assessments performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment), every 6 weeks +/-7 days for first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks +/-7 days thereafter until confirmed objective disease progression. Up to approximately 30 months.

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR) in Cohort 2

    DCR at 6 months is defined as the percentage of participants who had a best objective response (BoR) of CR or PR in the first 6 months (i.e. 24+1=25 weeks to allow for a late assessment within the assessment window) or who had demonstrated stable disease (SD) for a minimum interval of 24 weeks (minus 1 week to allow for an early assessment within the assessment window, i.e. 161 days) following the start of treatment. DCR at 12 months is defined as the percentage of participants who had a BoR of CR or PR in the first 12 months (i.e. 48+1=49 weeks to allow for a late assessment within the assessment window) or who had demonstrated SD for a minimum interval of 48 weeks (minus 1 week to allow for an early assessment within the assessment window, i.e. 329 days) following the start of treatment. DCR was determined using Investigator assessments according to RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: RECIST assessments were performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment) and every 6 weeks +/- 7 days for first 48 weeks up to 6 months and 12 months

  3. Median Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in Cohort 2

    PFS is defined as the time from the date of first dose until the date of objective disease progression or death (by any cause in the absence of progression) regardless of whether the participant withdraws from allocated therapy or receives another anticancer therapy prior to progression. PFS was determined using Investigator assessments according to RECIST v1.1 and calculated using the Kaplan-Meier technique.

    Measured: RECIST assessments performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment), every 6 weeks +/-7 days for first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks +/-7 days thereafter until confirmed objective disease progression. Up to approximately 30 months.

  4. Progression-Free Survival Rate at 3 Months (PFS3) in Cohort 2

    The PFS rate was defined as percentage of participants alive and progression-free after 3 months. The PFS3 was calculated using Kaplan-Meier estimates. Tumor progression was determined based on Investigator assessment and RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: RECIST assessments were performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment) and every 6 weeks +/- 7 days up to 3 months

  5. Progression-Free Survival Rate at 6 Months (PFS6) in Cohort 2

    The PFS6 was defined as percentage of participants alive and progression-free after 6 months. The PFS6 was calculated using Kaplan-Meier estimates. Tumor progression was determined based on Investigator assessment and RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: RECIST assessments were performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment) and every 6 weeks +/- 7 days up to 6 months

  6. Median Overall Survival (OS) in Cohort 2

    OS is defined as the time from the date of first dose until death due to any cause (i.e. date of death or censoring - date of first dose + 1). OS was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier technique. Any participant not known to have died at the time of analysis was censored based on the last recorded date on which the participant was known to be alive (censored at end of study).

    Measured: RECIST assessments performed at baseline (within 28 days before start of study treatment), every 6 weeks +/-7 days for first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks +/-7 days thereafter until confirmed objective disease progression. Up to approximately 30 months.

  7. Overall Survival at 6 Months (OS6) in Cohort 2

    OS6 is defined as percentage of participants alive at 6 months from first dose of study treatment. OS6 was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimate of OS at 6 months.

    Measured: From first dose of study treatment (Day 1) up to 6 months

  8. Overall Survival at 12 Months (OS12) in Cohort 2

    OS12 is defined as percentage of participants alive at 12 months from first dose of study treatment. OS12 was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimate of OS at 12 months.

    Measured: From first dose of study treatment (Day 1) up to 12 months

  9. Number of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibody (ADAs) for MEDI4736 in Cohort 2

    Samples were measured for the presence of ADAs and ADA-neutralizing antibodies for MEDI4736 using validated assays. Persistently positive is defined as positive at >=2 post-baseline assessments or positive at the last post-baseline assessment. Transiently positive is defined as having at least one post-baseline ADA positive assessment and not fulfilling the conditions of persistently positive. NAB = neutralizing antibody.

    Measured: On Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7; At months 3 and 6 after last dose

  10. Mean Plasma Concentrations of MEDI4736 in Cohort 2

    Mean peak and trough plasma concentrations of MEDI4736 are presented.

    Measured: Predose (within 60 minutes prior to treatment with any IP) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7; and post infusion (within 10 minutes after end of MEDI4736 infusion) on Day 1 of Cycles 1 and 7

  11. Mean Plasma Concentrations of AZD5069 in Cohort 2

    Mean peak and trough plasma concentration of AZD5069 are presented. Concentration of AZD5069 was calculated by plasma concentration-time profile.

    Measured: Predose (within 60 minutes prior to treatment with any IP) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7; and postdose (within 10 minutes after end of MEDI4736 infusion) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, and 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MEDI4736 in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine and MEDI4736 in combination with AZD5069 in people with Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma, run by AstraZeneca at 7 sites in 2 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 5 inclusion and 18 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 14 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United Kingdom, 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 14 Aug 2019). 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?

Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLT) (time frame: Cohort 1: From time of first dose of MEDI4736 on Day 1 up to Day 28 of Cycle 1 and Cohort 2: From time of first dose of AZD5069 and MEDI4736 on Day 1 up to Day 28 of Cycle 1 or until a participant experiences a DLT, whichever occurs first.). The study lists 3 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 14 Aug 2019.
