Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Patients with metastatic, locally advanced, or unresectable pancreatic ductal carcinomas (PDA) who have failed prior chemotherapy with gemcitabine regimens have an extremely poor prognosis with progression-free survival of around 13 weeks and median overall survival of approximately 20 weeks after second line chemotherapy. Recent studies suggest that albumin may be preferentially concentrated in pancreatic cancers that appear to be starved for this protein. Thus, any molecule attached to albumin would also collect inside the tumor. Based on its postulated mechanism of action, INNO-206 may improve the activity of doxorubicin without increasing its toxicity, as has been demonstrated in animal studies, and induce enhanced anti-tumor efficacy.

Official Title:
A Multicenter, Open-Label Pilot Phase 2 Study to Investigate the Preliminary Efficacy and Safety of INNO-206 (Doxorubicin-EMCH) in Subjects With Advanced or Unresectable Pancreatic Ductal Carcinoma Whose Tumors Have Progressed Following Prior Treatment With Gemcitabine and Fluoropyrimidine-Based Chemotherapy

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: INNO-206

Drug: INNO-206
INNO-206 at a total dose of 350 mg/m2 (260 mg/m2 doxorubicin equivalent) will be administered as a 30 minute IV infusion every 21 days.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Objective Response Rate [Approximately 15 months from randomization.]

    Objective response rate is defined as Complete Responders + Partial Responders per RECIST 1.1.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Disease Control Rate [After all subjects have been on study for 4 months.]

    Disease control rate is Complete Responders + Partial Responders + Stable Disease

  2. Progression-free Survival [From the date of randomization until the date of first documented progression assessed up to 20 months.]

    A >=20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions from the smallest sum of the LD recorded since the treatment started.

  3. Safety Assessments [From randomization upto 15 months.]

    Adverse events, serious adverse events, vital signs, physical examinations, ECG, safety labs will be evaluated for overall toxicity of INNO-206 in this population.
