About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Phase II Study on Intra-arterial Versus Intravenous Chemotherapy Infusion With Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of intra- arterial infusion of gemcitabine and oxaliplatin in locally advanced pancreatic cancer. This protocol is overseen by the Fudan University Institutional Review Board which has Federal Wide Assurance through the U.S. Department of Health \& Human Services (Approved: April 25, 2002).

Read the detailed description

Primary Outcome Measures:

To compare the overall survival (OS) in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer treated with transcatheter arterial infusion (TAI) of chemotherapeutics or systemic delivered chemotherapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

To compare the progression free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), quality of life (QoL), and adverse effects of treating locally advanced pancreatic cancer patients with TAI or systemic chemotherapy.

Exploratory Outcome Measures:

To evaluate the correlation between prognosis and expression of serum microRNAs of the patients.

Being tested
Transcatheter arterial infusion, Intravenous chemotherapy, Gemcitabine, Oxaliplatin

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progression free survival

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Transcatheter arterial infusion, Intravenous chemotherapy and Gemcitabine in people with Carcinoma, Pancreatic, 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 9 inclusion and 11 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 5 Mar 2020. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yehua Shen, MD, Ph D (86-21-64175590 ext. 83625, yehuash25@163.com), 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 date of randomization until the date of death, assessed up to 100 months.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02635971, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Mar 2020.
