About this study

Official title: A Phase Ⅲ, Randomized Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the Combination of Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine Versus mFOLFIRINOX in Treating Patients With Borderline Reseactable and Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

This is a prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled phase Ⅲ study.

Read the detailed description

Three hundred patients with borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic cancer will be randomized 1:1 (150 :150) to the AG and mFOLFIRINOX chemotherapy groups and to observe the overall survival.

The AG regimen: albumin-bound paclitaxel and gemcitabine are given intravenous infusion, repeated every 4 weeks for 1, 8, and 15 days, for a total of 4 to 6 cycles.

MFOLFIRINOX: Intravenous oxaliplatin for 2 hours, day 1;Intravenous infusion of calcium formyl tetrahydrofolate (LV) for 2 h, day 1;Irinotecan intravenous infusion is added 30 minutes later for 90 minutes, day 1;Intravenous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) continued for 46 hours.Repeat every 2 weeks for a total of 4-6 cycles.

After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the surgery will be evaluated according to the patient's tumor and systemic condition.

The first cycle of adjuvant chemotherapy begins 4-8 weeks after radical resection, and the choice of adjuvant chemotherapy regimen depends on the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.If neoadjuvant chemotherapy is effective, adjuvant chemotherapy maintains the original regimen.Adjuvant chemotherapy has 4 cycles of treatment.

Relevant examinations were performed before and after each cycle of medication to assess safety events, imaging review was performed every 2 cycles during the treatment period and every 3 months during the follow-up period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Nab paclitaxel plus gemcitabine and mFOLFIRINOX in people with Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer and Locally Advanced Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 11 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xian-Jun Yu, MD, PhD (+86 21 64175590, yuxianjun@fudanpci.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall survival (time frame: from randomization to death, up to 36 months). 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 28 Jan 2022.
