Change of Treatment Landscape and Survival in Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer After Nal-IRI in Republic of Korea

Recruiting

• Conditions: Pancreatic Neoplasms

• Registration Number: NCT05587387
• Lead Sponsor: Yonsei University

Brief Summary

Pancreatic cancer is a very aggressive disease and its prognosis is poor. Large proportion of patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer is already in metastatic or locally advanced phases. Although there have been huge improvements in survival for many other cancers over the last few decades, the same isn't true for pancreatic cancer. Median 5-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is around 10% and there are limited number of treatments approved for pancreatic cancer.

There is no definite consensus on the best second-line chemotherapy for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who have progressed after first-line chemotherapy. The randomized phase III study, NAPOLI-1 trial has revealed that liposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) plus fluorouracil/leucovorin (FL) regimen could be an acceptable treatment option in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who had been previously treated with gemcitabine-based chemotherapy.

In this study, The investigators will evaluate how the treatment landscape has been changed since the appearance of nal-IRI in Korea. By retrospectively comparing treatment efficacy and safety outcomes before (cohort 1; without nal-IRI/FL) and after the launch of nal-IRI (cohort 2; with nal-IRI/FL), investigators will identify the degree of improvement in treatment outcome brought about by nal-IRI and will confirm whether the nal-IRI could be applied as an effective treatment option in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who failed first-line chemotherapy.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Overall survival (OS1)	The length of time from either the date of diagnosis or the start of treatment for a disease, such as cancer, that patients diagnosed with the disease are still alive. (Up to 100 weeks)	the duration from diagnosis of pancreatic cancer to death or last follow-up; - OS1 : the duration from diagnosis of pancreatic cancer to death or last follow-up
Overall survival (OS 2)	The length of time from either the date of diagnosis or the start of treatment for a disease, such as cancer, that patients diagnosed with the disease are still alive. (Up to 100 weeks)	the duration from nal-IRI treatment initiation to death or last follow-up

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Progression free survival	The length of time during and after the treatment of a disease, such as cancer, that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse (Up to 100 weeks)	the duration from treatment initiation to disease progression
Objective response rate	The assessment of the tumor burden after a given treatment in patients with solid tumors and has a long history(Up to 100 weeks)	the ratio of complete remission and partial remission
Adverse event	Any undesirable experience associated with the use of a medical product in a patient.(Up to 100 weeks)	adverse event during the treatment
Disease control rate	the percentage of patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have achieved complete response, partial response and stable disease to a therapeutic intervention in clinical trials of anticancer agents.(Up to 100 weeks)	the ratio of complete remission, partial remission and stable disease
