Brief Summary

Multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel group phase 2 study to assess the efficacy and tolerance of four combinations of CBP501, cisplatin, and nivolumab administered once every 21 days to patients with stage IV exocrine pancreatic cancer and WBC < 10,000/mm3 at screening.

Phase 2

Detailed Description

Multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel group phase 2 study to assess the efficacy and tolerance of four combinations of CBP501, cisplatin, and nivolumab administered once every 21 days to patients with stage IV exocrine pancreatic cancer and WBC < 10,000/mm3 at screening. Patients will be randomized 1:1:1:1 to the following four treatment groups, with randomization stratified by ECOG PS (0 vs 1) and liver metastasis (present vs absent):

  1. CBP501 25 mg/m2 + cisplatin 60 mg/m2 + nivolumab 240 mg

  2. CBP501 16 mg/m2 + cisplatin 60 mg/m2 + nivolumab 240 mg

  3. CBP501 25 mg/m2 + cisplatin 60 mg/m2

  4. Cisplatin 60 mg/m2 + nivolumab 240 mg No more than 4 cycles of combination therapy may be administered but patients who remain progression-free after 4 cycles may receive up to 6 additional cycle of single-agent nivolumab.

A Fleming two-stage design will be used. For each study arm, the null hypothesis that the true percentage of patients progression-free at 3 months is 10% will be tested against a one-sided alternative. In the first stage, 9 patients will be accrued to each study arm. In the first stage, if there are 1 or fewer patient progression-free at 3 months the study will be stopped for futility and if there are 4 or more patients progression-free at 3 months the study will stopped and the null hypothesis rejected. Otherwise, 14 additional patients will be accrued to the study arm for a total of 23. The null hypothesis will be rejected if 6 or more of 23 patients are progression-free at 3 months. This design yields a type I error rate of 2.5% and power of 80% when the true percentage of patients progression-free at 3 months is 35%.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Three-month progression free survival rate (3M PFSR) [3 months after treatment]

      Tumor assessment by RECIST v.1.1 criteria will be performed at screening, every 8 weeks starting after Cycle 1 Day 1, at the End-of-Treatment visit, and every 3 months after the End-of-Treatment visit until disease progression is observed.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Safety profiles of the combinations of CBP501, cisplatin, and nivolumab administered once every 21 days [One year]

      Safety will be assessed throughout the study through clinical and laboratory safety evaluations. These include physical examinations, vital sign measurements, 12-lead ECGs, laboratory safety tests (hematology, INR, serum chemistry, serum cardiac markers), and clinical adverse experience monitoring. Adverse events will be evaluated at each visit throughout the study and assigned a grade, defined by NCI-CTCAE version 5.0 criteria, and relationship to study treatment (unrelated, related).

    2. Progression-free survival (PFS) [one year]

      Tumor assessment by RECIST v.1.1 criteria will be performed at screening, every 8 weeks starting after Cycle 1 Day 1, at the End-of-Treatment visit, and every 3 months after the End-of-Treatment visit until disease progression is observed.

    3. Confirmed and timepoint objective response rates (cORR/ORR) [one year]

      Tumor assessment by RECIST v.1.1 criteria will be performed at screening, every 8 weeks starting after Cycle 1 Day 1, at the End-of-Treatment visit, and every 3 months after the End-of-Treatment visit until disease progression is observed.

    4. Duration of responses (DoR) [one year]

      Tumor assessment by RECIST v.1.1 criteria will be performed at screening, every 8 weeks starting after Cycle 1 Day 1, at the End-of-Treatment visit, and every 3 months after the End-of-Treatment visit until disease progression is observed.

    5. disease control rate (DCR: CR + PR + SD ≥12 weeks) [one year]

      Tumor assessment by RECIST v.1.1 criteria will be performed at screening, every 8 weeks starting after Cycle 1 Day 1, at the End-of-Treatment visit, and every 3 months after the End-of-Treatment visit until disease progression is observed.

    6. Overall survival (OS) [one year]

      Tumor assessment by RECIST v.1.1 criteria will be performed at screening, every 8 weeks starting after Cycle 1 Day 1, at the End-of-Treatment visit, and every 3 months after the End-of-Treatment visit until disease progression is observed.
