What is being measured

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

  1. Phase I: Establish maximum tolerable (MTD) dose of ICE (Irinotecan, Cetuximab and Everolimus)

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Phase I: Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ICE in patients with gemcitabine resistant pancreatic cancer

    Measured: 4 months

  3. Phase II: Progression-free survival as measured from inclusion to either documentation of disease progression or death

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Survival All events grade 1-5 according to NCI-CTCAE in fase I All Adverse events grade 1-5 according to NCI-CTCAEW in Fase II Correlation between effect of treatment and tumourmarkers Quality of life - EORTC QLQ Time to failure of Strategy

    Measured: 22 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Everolimus, Cetuximab, Irinotecan and Capecitabine, Oxaliplatine in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by Per Pfeiffer at 2 sites in Denmark.

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 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2015. 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 Denmark. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Emergence of FOLFIRINOX and slow recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Phase I: Establish maximum tolerable (MTD) dose of ICE (Irinotecan, Cetuximab and Everolimus) (time frame: 4 months). 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 20 Oct 2015.
