About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of HRS-4642 in Combination With Nimotuzumab and Chemotherapy for Subjects With Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer With KRAS G12D Mutation

This study is a Phase II clinical trial that plans to enroll 40 patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer harboring a KRAS G12D mutation, aiming to evaluate the efficacy of HRS-4642 in combination with Nimotuzumab and AG in borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The study process includes a screening period (from the signing of the informed consent form until the first dose), a treatment period (from the first dose to the discontinuation of study treatment), and a follow-up period (safety follow-up and survival follow-up after the discontinuation of study treatment).

Read the detailed description

This study is a Phase II clinical trial that plans to enroll 40 patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer harboring a KRAS G12D mutation, aiming to evaluate the efficacy of HRS-4642 in combination with Nimotuzumab and AG in borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The study process includes a screening period, a treatment period, and a follow-up period.

Screening Period: The screening period for this study is 28 days. Eligible subjects who complete the screening examinations and assessments will proceed to the treatment period.

Treatment Period: Subjects who pass screening will enter the neoadjuvant therapy phase, receiving treatment with HRS-4642 in combination with Nimotuzumab and the AG regimen. The predefined administration regimen is as follows:

HRS-4642: 500 mg intravenous infusion on Day 1, and 1200 mg intravenous infusion on Day 8, every 3 weeks per cycle.

Nimotuzumab: 400 mg intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8, every 3 weeks per cycle.

Albumin-bound paclitaxel: 125 mg/m² intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8, every 3 weeks per cycle.

Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m² intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8, every 3 weeks per cycle.

Neoadjuvant therapy will consist of 4 cycles. After completing 2 cycles and 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy, subjects will undergo radiographic imaging for efficacy evaluation. After completing 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy, eligibility for radical surgery will be assessed by a Multidisciplinary Team (MDT). If assessed as eligible for radical surgery, the subject will undergo surgery within 4 weeks after completing neoadjuvant therapy.

After surgery, subjects will enter the adjuvant therapy phase. Adjuvant therapy should begin within 4 to 12 weeks after surgery. The recommended adjuvant treatment regimen is to continue HRS-4642 + Nimotuzumab + AG for 4 cycles. If a subject cannot receive HRS-4642 + Nimotuzumab + AG as adjuvant therapy, the investigator will develop an adjuvant treatment plan based on a comprehensive assessment. The adjuvant therapy phase shall not exceed 4 cycles.

If the assessment determines that radical surgery is not possible, and the subject has not experienced disease progression, the subject may continue to receive study treatment if the investigator assesses that continued treatment is likely to be beneficial.

Subjects will receive HRS-4642 in combination with Nimotuzumab and AG until radiographic disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, voluntary withdrawal, loss to follow-up/death occurs (whichever comes first).

During the treatment period, subject visits will occur on Day 1 and Day 8 of each cycle, and on Cycle 1 Day 15. Tumor imaging assessments will be performed at Cycle 3 Day 1 (±7 days) and Cycle 4 Day 21 (±7 days) (upon completion of neoadjuvant therapy). For subjects who undergo radical surgery, assessments will be performed every 12 weeks (±7 days) postoperatively. For subjects who do not undergo radical surgery, subsequent assessments will be performed every 6 weeks (±7 days) until radiographic disease progression, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, voluntary withdrawal, loss to follow-up/death occurs (whichever comes first). If clinically indicated, imaging examinations and assessments may be performed at any time. All subjects must undergo the corresponding examinations and imaging assessments at the end-of-treatment visit (if more than 4 weeks have passed since the last assessment).

Follow-up Period: After discontinuing study treatment, subjects must return to the research center for a safety follow-up visit 30 days (±7 days) after the last dose or before starting new anti-tumor therapy. Subjects will enter the survival follow-up period after the last dose of study treatment. The investigator must conduct survival follow-ups every 2 months (±7 days) until the subject dies, is lost to follow-up, the investigator terminates the study, or other study termination criteria are met (whichever comes first). For subjects who discontinue the study for reasons other than radiographic disease progression, tumor progression follow-up should continue, including radiographic assessments per the protocol-specified frequency, until disease progression, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, etc.

What is being measured

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

  1. 12-month Event-Free Survival (EFS) rate

    The proportion of patients who had tumor progression, tumor recurrence (local, regional or distant) or death within 1 year after surgery, whichever occurred first

    Measured: Up to one year

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Event Free Survival, EFS

    From treatment to the date of the first documented tumor progression, tumor into recurrence or death from any cause, whichever occurred first

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Surgical resection rate

    The proportion of patients who receive the radical resection

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  3. R0 resection rate

    R0 resection rate is the percentage of patients who undergo a surgical procedure where the surgeon successfully removes the entire visible tumor and a microscopic examination confirms that no cancer cells are left at the edges (margins) of the removed tissue.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  4. Pathological Complete Response (pCR) Rate

    The percentage of patients who, after pre-surgical (neoadjuvant) therapy, have no viable cancer cells detected in the tumor tissue and lymph nodes that are removed during subsequent surgery when examined under a microscope by a pathologist.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  5. Major Pathological Response (MPR) Rate

    The percentage of patients who, after neoadjuvant therapy, have only a minimal amount of viable tumor remaining in the resected specimen. This is typically defined as ≤10%

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  6. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The proportion of patients whose tumor shrinks (responds) by a predefined amount from its baseline size for a minimum period of time. It includes two categories of response:

    Complete Response (CR): The disappearance of all target tumors. Partial Response (PR): A specified minimum decrease (e.g., 30%) in the sum of the diameters of the target tumors.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  7. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    The proportion of patients who have achieved a best response of either Stable Disease (SD), Partial Response (PR), or Complete Response (CR). It essentially measures the treatment's ability to stop the cancer from growing.

    Measured: Up to 2 yeas

  8. Overall Survival (OS)

    The length of time from a defined point in a study (e.g., date of randomization or start of treatment) until death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 3 yeas.

Individual data sharing
No: Patient Privacy and Ethical Compliance: The dataset contains detailed, sensitive clinical information. Ensuring complete and irreversible anonymization of participants is challenging, and sharing IPD could potentially compromise patient confidentiality and violate the ethical commitments made to participants and the approving IRB. For researchers interested in specific analytical outcomes or validated findings, the corresponding author may be contacted to discuss the possibility of collaborative re-analysis where feasible and subject to a formal data sharing agreement.
