About this study

Official title: Open Label Phase II Immunotherapy Trial of Inoperable Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic cancer (PDA) is the most lethal form of cancer, and the fourth-leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, with a survival rate of less than 7%.There are currently no treatments found to be effective for patients with advanced disease who are ineligible for surgery, a prognosis representing the majority of pancreatic cancer diagnoses. Pancreatic cancer is not amenable to chemotherapy as compared to other cancer types, leaving patients with practically no options except surgery.

We have made oral tableted therapeutic vaccine, V3-P, derived from pooled blood of patients with PDA in line with similar highly promising approach we have adopted for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CAA). Patients with PDA will be given one tablet per day of V3-P and followed up to see the outcome.

Read the detailed description

This study is an open label Phase II study aimed to recruit at least 20 patients with inoperable PDA and who are positive for CA19.9 pancreatic tumor marker. The presence of higher than normal levels of CA19.9 is the sole inclusion criteria. Patients will be given one tablet of V3-P daily and followed for three months.

ExperimentalExperimentalDaily tablet of V3-P given orally for 2 months
Receives: Biological: V3-P

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of V3-P on tumor burden

    Changes in CA19.9 tumor marker induced by daily dose of oral vaccine V3-P in an open label trial in patients with inoperable pancreatic cancer.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety of V3-P

    Toxicity or adverse side effects, such as diarrhea and vomiting, will be graded according to accepted standards, e.g., NCI CTEP CTCAE.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Effect of V3-P on sugar and bilirubin levels

    Monthly evaluation of fasting glucose and bilirubin levels as a surrogate for pancreatic function

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing V3-P in people with Pancreatic Cancer Non-resectable, run by Immunitor LLC at 2 sites in Mongolia.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Aug 2019. 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 Mongolia. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact aldar Bourinbaiar, MD/PhD, PhD (+976-95130306, immunitor@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of V3-P on tumor burden (time frame: 3 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 NCT03165591, 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 30 Aug 2019.
