  • Albumin total ≥ 0,75 ULN
  • Creatinine ≤ 1,5 x ULN
  • Ability to sign informed consent
  • Patients will be allowed to be randomised just once.

Who cannot join

  • Brain metastases, unless they have been previously treated and stable for 3 months at least (defined as no oedema, no need of steroids and stable disease in two CT scans separated by a minimum of 4 weeks).
  • Locally advanced disease.
  • Malignancies other than pancreatic cancer diagnosed within 5 years prior to randomization, except for adequately treated carcinoma in situ or basal or squamous cell skin cancer.
  • Bacterial, viral or fungal active infection that require systemic treatment.
  • Any contraindication for tumor biopsy.
  • Past or present HIV or hepatitis B or C infection.

About this study

Official title: Personalised Therapy for Patients With Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas Determined by Genetic Testing and Avatar Model Generation

This is a multicenter, open label, randomised phase II clinical trial for patients with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. Patients randomised to the experimental arm will undergone tumoral biopsy before starting first line of treatment and will be administered personalised therapy as second or third line.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, open label, randomised phase II clinical trial for patients with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.

Patients with metastatic disease will be randomised to the experimental or control arms. Those in the experimental arm will undergone a tumoral biopsy in order to perform exome sequencing, bioinformatic report, and avatar mouse models for drug testing. This information will allow the expertise panel to elaborate a treatment recommendation as second or third lines of treatment. Patients in the control arm will receive treatment as per investigator´s judge. The main objective of the trial is to determine whether personalised treatments achieve improved 1-year overall survival.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Personalised treatmentDrug

    Personalised treatments include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy or others based on the previous test results, chosen from a database that include more than 2000 different drugs.

  • Treatment chosen per investigator´s judgeDrug

    Investigators are allowed to chose what they consider the best standard treatment option for their patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Personalised treatment and Treatment chosen per investigator´s judge in people with Adenocarcinoma, run by Hospital Universitario de Fuenlabrada at 5 sites in Spain.

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 9 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 26 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Spain. 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?

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?

1-year overall survival (time frame: 1-year overall survival). 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 NCT02795650, 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 26 Feb 2021.
