About this study

Official title: Neoadjuvant CAPOXIRI Chemotherapy in the Treatment of Resectable, Borderline Resectable and Locally Advanced Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Protocol

The combination of capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (CAPOXIRI) may be better than other combinations used to treat earlier stage pancreatic cancer patients with resectable (able to be cut out), borderline resectable, and locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. For subjects who can not obtain Capecitabine can be treated with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) along with Oxaliplatin and Irinotecan. Though all of the drugs in this study have been approved by the FDA, their combination is investigational. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of CAPOXIRI (good and bad) on you and your cancer.

Read the detailed description

Introduction:

This is a phase II study evaluating the treatment adherence rate, efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with capecitabine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan (CAPOXIRI) in patients with resectable (able to be cut out), borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Neoadjuvant CAPOXIRI chemotherapy is an innovative strategy that builds on the advancement associated with oxaliplatin, irinotecan, fluorouracil, and folinate (FOLFIRINOX regimen) chemotherapy in patients with metastatic disease. Building on the FOLFIRINOX regimen the use of CAPOXIRI is among the most clinically relevant projects for patients diagnosed with earlier stage pancreatic adenocarcinoma with the goal of improving patient outcomes and advancing our knowledge and understanding of this devastating disease.

The primary end point is the treatment adherence rate (TAR) which is the percentage of patients who complete 75% of the planned treatment (dose) for their diagnostic strata (resectable disease and borderline resectable/locally advanced disease).

Secondary end points are: Overall survival (OS), Disease-free survival (DFS; for those patients who are rendered disease-free by surgical resection), Progression Free Survival (PFS), Response Rate (RR), toxicity, and R0 resection rate (for patients stratified as having resectable disease and borderline resectable disease).

Background and Study Rationale:

It is estimated that 36,800 people will die of pancreatic cancer in the United States in 2010. Surgical resection offers the only chance of cure, but only 15-20% of cases are potentially resectable at present. Furthermore, prognosis is poor, even for those undergoing complete resection. Reported five-year survival rates following pancreatic-duodenectomy (surgery of the small intestine and pancreas) for node-negative disease is 25-30% and for node-positive disease is 10%.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of the combination of capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (CAPOXIRI) on the disease. This research is being done because we think that this combination, CAPOXIRI, may be better than other combinations used to treat your stage of pancreatic cancer.

A research study like this one has been done which shows that a similar combination of drugs including oxaliplatin, irinotecan and 5-fluorouracil (which is in the same class as capecitabine) can be effective in treating patients with pancreatic cancer who have more advanced disease than you. All of the drugs that are being used in this study have been approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Capecitabine, Oxaliplatin and Irinotecan (CAPOXIRI) in people with Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma, run by Beth Israel Medical Center at 3 sites in United States.

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 16 inclusion and 12 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 15 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in 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 phase mean?

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. 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?

The primary end point is the treatment adherence rate (TAR) which is the percentage of patients who complete 75% of the planned treatment (dose) for their diagnostic strata (resectable disease and borderline resectable/locally advanced disease) (time frame: 5 years). 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 15 Mar 2019.
