Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical study is to compare the efficacy and safety of OT-101 in combination with FOLFIRINOX (folinic acid, 5-FU, irinotecan, oxaliplatin) to FOLFIRINOX alone in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2/Phase 3

Detailed Description

OT-01-P201 is designed as a randomized, open-label, active controlled, multicenter Phase 2B/Phase 3 study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of OT-101 in combination with FOLFIRINOX (folinic acid, 5-FU, irinotecan, oxaliplatin) to FOLFIRINOX alone in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer. The primary endpoint of the study is overall survival and key secondary endpoints are progression-free survival and objective response rate.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall Survival (OS) [2.5 years]

    To compare the efficacy of OT-101 in combination with FOLFIRINOX versus FOLFIRINOX alone in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer as measured by overall survival (OS)

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter - Area Under the Curve (AUC) [1 year]

    To characterize the area under the curve (AUC) of OT-101 when it is combined with FOLFIRINOX in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Area under the curve is a measure of how much a drug reaches a person's bloodstream in a given period of time after a dose is given.

  2. Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter - Cmax [1 year]

    To characterize the Cmax of OT-101 when it is combined with FOLFIRINOX in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Cmax is the highest concentration of a drug in the blood, cerebrospinal fluid, or target organ after a dose is given.

  3. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [2.5 years]

    To assess the efficacy of OT-101 in combination with FOLFIRINOX in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer as measured by Progression-free survival (PFS)

  4. Objective Response Rate (ORR) [2.5 years]

    To assess the efficacy of OT-101 in combination with FOLFIRINOX in patients with advanced and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer as measured by Objective Response Rate (ORR)

  5. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability] [2.5 years]

    To compare the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events of OT-101 in combination with FOLFIRINOX versus FOLFIRINOX alone
