Efficacy and Safety of L-asparaginase Encapsulated in RBC Combined With Gemcitabine or FOLFOX in 2nd Line for Progressive Metastatic Pancreatic Carcinoma
- Conditions
- Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Metastatic
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT02195180
- Lead Sponsor
- ERYtech Pharma
- Brief Summary
A new approach that aims to destroy pancreatic tumor cells through modification of the tumor environment.
Asparagine synthetase (ASNS) is an enzyme wich synthetise asparagine. Asparagine is an essential nutriment for pancreatic cancer cells which have no or low level of ASNS.
by L-asparaginase encapsulated in erythrocytes deplete (supress) Plasma asparagine.
in selected patients having no or low ASNS, may provide a new therapeutic approach.

- INR ≥1.5 fold the upper limit of normal value or
- Fibrinogen ≤ 0.75 fold the lower limit of normal value
-
Known Infection: HIV, active hepatitis related to B or C virus
-
Concurrent active malignancies (with the exception of in situ carcinoma of the cervix and inactive non melanoma skin cancer
-
Other serious conditions than pancreatic cancer according to investigator's opinion
-
NYHA Grade ≥ 2 congestive heart failure
-
Systemic chemotherapy or radiation within the last 3 weeks or major surgery within 4 weeks NOTE: chemotherapy or radiation therapy given in less than 3 weeks is allowed, provided patient recovered from all related toxicities
-
History of grade 3 blood transfusion reaction (life threatening situation)
-
Presence of anti-erythrocyte antibodies (auto-antibodies or anti-public antibodies) preventing from getting a compatible packed Red Blood Cells for the patient
-
Participation in another concurrent clinical trial
-
Women of child-bearing potential and men with partners of childbearing potential without effective contraception as well as pregnant or breast feeding women
-
Other severe acute/chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study drug administration, or may interfere with the interpretation of study results, and in the judgment of the Investigator would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall survival (OS) From last study treatment assessment visit until patient's death, loss to follow up, or study closure, assessed up to 36 months. Evaluate the effects of eryaspase when combined with chemotherapy for the second line treatment of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma in terms of OS, whose tumors has low or no ASNS expression (ASNS 0 or 1+)
Progression free survival (PFS) From date of randomization to first documented progression of disease, death for any cause or until start of new anti-cancer treatment, whcihever came first, assessed up to 24 months. Evaluate the effects of eryaspase when combined with chemotherapy for the second line treatment of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma in terms of PFS, whose tumors has low or no ASNS expression (ASNS 0 or 1+)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Objective response rate (ORR) From date of randomization to last tumor assessment data collected for each patient, assessed up to 24 months. Evaluate the effect of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy on the ORR, and the duration in all comers, patients with ASNS 0/1+ expressing tumors, and those with ASNS 2+/3+ expressing tumors.
Incidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability) collected from time of informed consent until 4 weeks after last study treatment Compare the safety profile in patients treated with eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone, including adverse events, vital signs and clinical laboratory assessments
Overall survival From last study treatment assessment visit until patient's death, loss to follow up, or study closure, assessed up to 36 months. Evaluate the effects of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy on investigator-assessed OS in all randomized patients (all patients) and in patients with ASNS 2+/3+ expressing tumors.
Progression free survival From date of randomization to first documented progression of disease, death for any cause or until start of new anti-cancer treatment, whcihever came first, assessed up to 24 months. Evaluate the effects of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy on investigator-assessed PFS in all randomized patients (all patients) and in patients with ASNS 2+/3+ expressing tumors.
Disease control rate (DCR) From date of randomization to 16 and 24 weeks. Evaluate the effect of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy on the DCR in all comers, patients with ASNS 0/1+ expressing tumors, and those with ASNS 2+/3+ expressing tumors.
Duration of response (DoR) From date of first response of complete or partial response until tumor progression, assessed up to 24 months. Evaluate the effect of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy on the DoR in all comers, patients with ASNS 0/1+ expressing tumors, and those with ASNS 2+/3+ expressing tumors.
Evaluate the relationship of clinical outcomes with tumor markers From date of randomiztion to end of treatment visit, assessed up to 20 months. Evaluate the relationship of clinical outcome (i.e. OS, PFS, ORR, DCR and DoR) with tumor markers, namely cancer antigen (CA19-9), and carcinoembryonic antigen test (CEA).
Optical density reading From date of randomization to first documented progression of disease, death for any cause or until start of new anti-cancer treatment, whcihever came first, assessed up to 24 months. Assess the effect of eryaspase in combination with chemotherapy on PFS, OS, ORR, BOR, and other clinical outcomes in ASNS subsets, as determined by optical density reading.
Quality of Life status From date of randomiztion to end of treatment visit, assessed up to 20 months. Compare the 2 treatment arms with respect to change in quality of life status, the change of QOL relative to baseline
