About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase 2 Study of the Safety, Efficacy, and Immune Response of CRS-207, Nivolumab, and Ipilimumab With or Without GVAX Pancreas Vaccine (With Cyclophosphamide) in Patients With Previously Treated Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

  • IpilimumabDrug

    Also called YERVOY®

    Patients will receive treatment every 3 weeks for 6 cycles of treatment within a course (total of 18 weeks). Ipilimumab (1 mg/kg) will be administered IV on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 3, and 5.

  • GVAX Pancreas VaccineDrug

    Also called GVAX, PANC 10.05 pcDNA-1/GM-Neo and PANC 6.03 pcDNA-1/GM-Neo vaccine

    Patients will receive treatment every 3 weeks for 6 cycles of treatment within a course (total of 18 weeks). Vaccine will be administered on Day 2 of Cycles 1 and 2.

  • CRS-207Drug

    Patients will receive treatment every 3 weeks for 6 cycles of treatment within a course (total of 18 weeks). CRS-207 (1 × 109 CFU) will be administered IV on Day 2 of Cycles 3-6.

  • CRS-207Drug

    Patients will receive treatment every 3 weeks for 6 cycles of treatment within a course (total of 18 weeks). CRS-207 (1 × 109 CFU) will be administered IV on Day 2 of Cycles 1-6.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Using Response Evaluation Criteria for Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1)

    Objective Response Rate (ORR) is defined as the number of patients achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on RECIST 1.1 criteria. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions. Participants who discontinue due to toxicity or clinical progression prior to post-baseline tumor assessments will be considered as non-responders. Participants who discontinue for other reasons prior to their first dose of study drug will not included in the analysis.

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants Experiencing Grade 3 or Above Study Drug-related Adverse Events (AEs)

    When calculating the incidence of AEs, each AE (as defined by NCI CTCAE v4.03) will be counted only once for a given subject. Laboratory abnormalities that were asymptomatic and not clinically significant were excluded.

    Measured: 21 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cyclophosphamide, Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 1 site 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 11 inclusion and 20 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 7 Aug 2024. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Jul 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) Using Response Evaluation Criteria for Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) (time frame: 18 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 7 Aug 2024.
