About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial of Chemotherapy for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Based on Organoid Drug Sensitivity Test

The purpose of this study is to explore whether chemotherapy regimens guided by organoid drug sensitivity test can improve the outcomes of advanced pancreatic cancer. At the same time, this study will evaluate the successful stablishment rate of organoid from biopsy tissue , and explore the concordance between drug sensitivity test results and patients' treatment response.

Read the detailed description

The poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer is not just because of the high malignancy of the tumor itself, but also its poor response to chemotherapy. At present, patient's drug-sensitivity is assessed by progression time after treatment. Therefore, it is difficult to judge a patient's sensitivity to a drug before chemotherapy. Organoid is a new tumor model, which has the potential to test the drug sensitivity before chemotherapy.

Our center's previous experience has shown that the success rate of pancreatic cancer organoid culture is 77.6%. The previous research has confirmed that pancreatic cancer organoid was highly consistent with the original tissue in terms of genomics and histomorphology. More importantly, the investigators have tested the five first-line drug-sensitivity in 39 pancreatic cancer organoids, and compared the test results with the clinical treatment response of these patients, confirming that organoid can accurately evaluate the chemotherapy drug-sensitivity.

This is a single-center, prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled clinical trial, designed to explore whether chemotherapy regimens guided by organoid drug sensitivity test can improve outcomes in advanced pancreatic cancer patients. At the same time, the consistency between the drug sensitivity test results and the treatment response of patients will be analyzed. Also, the radiosensitivity of organoids will be tested, and be compared with the patients' response to radiotherapy.

Study groups in NCT04931381
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Organoid-Guided ChemotherapyExperimentalThe pancreatic cancer specimens are obtained from biopsy to be cultured for organoids. Then drug sensitivity is tested using organoid to obtain the sensitivity to the first-line drugs for pancreatic cancer (Gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil, Paclitaxel, Oxaliplatin, Irinotecan). Patients will receive relatively sensitive chemotherapy regimen based on the test results. Chemotherapy should start within 1 months after biopsy, and be given at least 1 cycle.

Physician-decided ChemotherapyNo interventionThe pancreatic cancer specimens are obtained from biopsy to be cultured for organoids. Then drug sensitivity is tested using organoid to obtain the sensitivity to the first-line drugs for pancreatic cancer (Gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil, Paclitaxel, Oxaliplatin, Irinotecan). Physician will decide the the adjuvant chemotherapy regimen, according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. And they don't know the drug sensitivity test results. Chemotherapy should start within 1 months after biopsy, and be given at least 1 cycle.

What is being measured

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

  1. 6-month disease control rate

    Percentage of patient's measurable disease who have achieved either complete response (CR) , partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) according to RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Progression free time

    Time from the date of randomization to progression based on the radiology assessment of response using RECIST v1.1, or death, whichever is earlier.

    Measured: 1-2 years

  2. Overall survival time

    The time from the date of randomization to the date of death for any cause. Patients will be followed until their date of death or until final database closure. Patients who are lost-to-follow-up or are alive at the time of analysis will be censored at the time they were last known to be alive or at the date of event cut-off for Overall survival (OS) analysis.

    Measured: 1-2 years

  3. The successful establishment rate of organoids

    The rate of organoid successfully cultured in all the samples collected.

    Measured: 1-2 years

  4. Concordance between drug sensitivity test results and patients' treatment response (descriptive statistics).

    To assess the accuracy of drug sensitivity test in both group. The number of patients with correct prediction of treatment response by organoid drug-sensitivity test divided by the number of patients underwent chemotherapy

    Measured: 1-2 years

  5. Concordance between radiosensitivity test results and patients' treatment response (descriptive statistics).

    To assess the accuracy of radiosensitivity test in both group. The number of patients with correct prediction of treatment response by organoid radiosensitivity test divided by the number of patients underwent radiotherapy

    Measured: 1-2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Chemotherapy guided by organoid drug sensitivity test in people with Advanced Pancreatic Cancer, run by Changhai Hospital 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 11 inclusion and 6 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 2 Aug 2022. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Shiwei Guo, M.D. (+8618621500666, gestwa@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

6-month disease control 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 2 Aug 2022.
