About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of FOLFOXIRI as Primary Treatment for Stage III Unresectable Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

The study is conducted as a monocentric prospective phase II trial. Patients with unresectable stage III locally advanced pancreatic cancer (defined for extended encasement of superior mesenteric artery/celiac axis/hepatic artery or for combined venous and arterial involvement or for unreconstructible venous encasement), ECOG PS 0-1 and age 18-75 are eligible.

After multidisciplinary evaluation of resectability, treatment with FOLFOXIRI is provided for a maximum of 12 cycles with multidisciplinary evaluation of disease status every 4 cycle.

In case of tumors have deemed resectable surgery is considered. In case tumors remain unresectable, radiotherapy is evaluated after the end of chemotherapy.

Primary objective of the study is the rate of patients who become resectable and undergo radical surgical resection after chemotherapy.

Secondary objectives are: response rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, toxicity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing FOLFOXIRI in people with Pancreatic Carcinoma Stage III, run by Azienda Ospedaliero, Universitaria Pisana at 1 site in Italy.

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 7 inclusion and 3 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 30 Jan 2015. 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 Italy. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Radical resection rate (time frame: 6 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 30 Jan 2015.
