About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Precision CRT for Liver-Dominant Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer with Homologous Recombination Deficiency (PreCISeRT)

The researchers are doing this study to test the combination of radiation therapy (RT) and low dose chemotherapy in people with metastatic pancreatic cancer that has a homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and has spread to the liver. The researchers will try to find the highest safe and effective dose of individualized dose-painted RT that can be given to the liver when combined with standard low dose chemotherapy. The conformal dose painted RT treatment plan will include higher doses of radiation to the areas of the liver where tumors can be seen, and a lower dose to the entire liver. The study will also look at blood samples from participants to learn why some people may respond to study treatment (whole liver RT in combination with low dose chemotherapy) better than others.

Being tested
Whole liver irradiation (WLI), Gemcitabine and Cisplatin

Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer, Homologous Recombination Deficiency, Radiation Therapy (RT), 21-443

What participants receive

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

  • Whole liver irradiation (WLI)Radiation

    Whole liver irradiation (WLI) to a total dose 1800cGy in 10 fractions will be given over 2 weeks with simultaneously integrated boost (SIB) to deliver focal doses of 3600cGy (dose level 1) and 4800cGy (dose level 2) to select gross lesions. SIBl dose assignment will be according to the dose escalation scheme, with all patients in dose level 1 receiving boost of 3600cGy to select lesions and those in dose level 2 receiving boosts of 4800cGy to select lesions. At least one lesion will be selected for dose escalation.

  • Gemcitabine and CisplatinDrug

    Patients will start cisplatin 10 mg/m2 and gemcitabine 600 mg/m2 intravenously q2 weeks for 1 cycle while undergoing simulation and radiation treatment planning procedures. After completion of CRT, adjuvant cisplatin 25 mg/m2 and gemcitabine 600 mg/m2 q2 weeks will be continued until progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Radiation Therapy (RT) and ChemotherapyExperimentalUpon enrollment in the study, patients will undergo radiation simulation. Protocol therapy will start upon completion of RT planning (1-2 weeks). Chemoradiation will be initiated 1-2 weeks later depending on RT planning and consist of whole liver irradiation (WLI).
Receives: Radiation: Whole liver irradiation (WLI); Drug: Gemcitabine and Cisplatin

What is being measured

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

  1. determine the maximum tolerated dose of focal simultaneously integrated boost (SIB)

    we will use a rolling 6 dose-escalation design which allows for accrual of two to six patients concurrently onto a dose level (hence tends to shorten the study conduct timeline) based on the number of patients currently enrolled and evaluable, the number experiencing dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), and the number still at risk of developing a DLT.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Whole liver irradiation (WLI) and Gemcitabine and Cisplatin in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 7 sites 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 20 inclusion and 14 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 12 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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 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.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

determine the maximum tolerated dose of focal simultaneously integrated boost (SIB) (time frame: 1 year). 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 12 Nov 2024.
