Официальное название

Endoscopic Ultrasound Radiofrequency Ablation and Immunotherapy Pembrolizumab for Locally Advanced Unresectable and Metastatic Pancreatic Duct Adenocarcinoma; a Phase II Trial PANcreas CAncer RaDIofrequeNcy AbLation

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to perform a pilot phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combined EUS-RFA, chemotherapy, and systemic immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) for the treatment of locally advanced unresectable and metastatic Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC).

Вмешательства

• Препарат Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC)
  Participant will undergo 8 weeks of NAC (treating physician's choice). Possible regimens are either mFOLFIRINOX or NALIRIFOX or Gemcitabine Nab-Paclitaxel ± Cisplatin (GA+/-Cisplatin) or Capecitabine (Xeloda).
• Препарат Immunotherapy (pembrolizumab)
  2-12 weeks after initial chemotherapy and after the first EUS-RFA treatment, patients will receive 400 mg every 6 weeks of pembrolizumab via infusion. Participants will be administered standard of care chemotherapy and pembrolizumab every 6 weeks.
• Устройство Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA)
  After 2-12 weeks of chemotherapy, patients will undergo EUS-RFA treatment 1 session every 6 weeks. Each RFA treatment will be for up to 5 cycles at 30W for 20 seconds or until there is an increase in measured impedance. After the 5th EUS-RFA, if there is clinical benefit, then patients will continue with EUS-RFA treatments until no active tumor is seen. During each session, the therapeutic gastroenterologist will evaluate if there is any tumor to undergo RFA. If no active tumor seen, then will a

Критерии включения

• Is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study,including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations, including follow-up
• Biopsy-proven locally advanced unresectable or metastatic PDAC

• Patients who have undergone prior resection will be excluded unless there is recurrent pancreatic tumor that is amenable to EUS-RFA.
• If biliary metal stent is placed, during procedure of EUS-RFA, indwelling biliary metal stent will be removed during initial EUS-RFA and then replaced with plastic stent.
• Mental capacity to provide informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance status 0-2
• At least one measurable metastatic lesion on axial imaging per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.
• No prior systemic therapy, including chemotherapy or chemoradiation is permitted with the following exceptions:

• Prior adjuvant therapy (including chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy) for pancreatic adenocarcinoma is permitted if standard of care neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy was completed at least 3 months prior to study enrollment. Prior adjuvant therapy may include mFFX, NALIRIFOX, GA or Capecitabine (Xeloda).
• If started on first-line treatment for mPDAC elsewhere (i.e., not at our study site), eligible participants can have undergone 3 months of chemotherapy with stable disease before study entry. Note: Imaging done outside the site will need to be reviewed for a 2nd opinion to confirm stable disease.

i. For patients who had prior treatment and stable disease up to 3 months and confirmed radiographically by our radiology investigators, then patients can proceed with EUS-RFA within 6-8 weeks of enrollment of study.

c. Patients who have started chemotherapy within a 3-month timeframe are allowed.

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1 x 109/L
• Platelet count ≥75 x 109/L
• Albumin levels ≥3 g/dL
• Total serum bilirubin <2× upper limit of normal (ULN) unless secondary to Gilbert's Syndrome

a. Subjects requiring biliary decompression, biliary stent, or drainage using percutaneous trans-hepatic cholangiogram are allowed (patients with a declining bilirubin status post stent placement are eligible with serum bilirubin ≤2.5 x ULN)

• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤3× ULN, or ≤5× ULN in cases of documented liver involvement
• Serum creatinine clearance must be ≥30 mL/minute either measured or calculated using a standard Cockcroft and Gault formula
• Prior surgery that required general anesthesia or other major surgery as defined by the Investigator must be completed at least 4 weeks before immunotherapy.

Критерии исключения
