A Study of FG-M108+Chemotherapy vs Placebo+Chemotherapy in Claudin18.2-positive Pancreatic Cancer

Official title

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase 3 Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of FG-M108 Versus Placebo Combined With Standard Chemotherapy in First-line Treatment of Patients With Claudin18.2-Positive Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

Overview

Pancreatic cancer, which stands as one of the most lethal malignancies and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, poses a significant challenge to human health worldwide. However, standard chemotherapeutic regimens show limited effectiveness in advanced pancreatic cancer, creating an urgent demand to investigate and develop novel therapeutic targets and combination treatment strategies. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of FG-M108 combined with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (Nab-P+GEM) versus placebo combined with Nab-P+GEM as first-line treatment, as measured by overall survival (OS). This study will also assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and the immunogenicity profile of FG-M108 monoclonal antibody, along with its impact on quality of life.

Detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FG-M108 injection combined with Nab-P+GEM versus placebo combined with Nab-P+GEM as first-line treatment in patients with Claudin18.2-positive, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Interventions

• Drug FG-M108
  FG-M108 monoclonal antibody will be administered as a minimum 2-hour Intravenous drip.
• Drug nab paclitaxel
  Nab-paclitaxel will be administered as an Intravenous drip.
• Drug Gemcitabine (GEM)
  Gemcitabine will be administered as an Intravenous drip.
• Drug Placebo for FG-M108
  Placebo will be administered as an Intravenous drip.

Primary outcome measures

• Overall Survival (OS) [Time frame: Up to 24 months]

Secondary outcome measures (5)

• Progression Free Survival (PFS) [Time frame: Up to 24 months]
• Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Time frame: Up to 24 months]
• Disease control rate (DCR) [Time frame: Up to 24 months]
• Duration Of Response (DOR) [Time frame: Up to 24 months]
• Safety assessed by Adverse Events (AEs) [Time frame: Up to 24 months]
