Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of NALIRIFOX per NAPOLI-3 regimen as first-line chemotherapy for patients with advanced small intestine and appendiceal cancers. Female or male patients aged 18 years, or older, with histopathologically or cytologically confirmed advanced mucinous or non-mucinous appendix cancer or advanced small intestine cancer will be eligible for participation in the study.
Detailed Description
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of NALIRIFOX per NAPOLI-3 regimen as first-line chemotherapy for patients with advanced small intestine and appendiceal cancers. Female or male patients aged 18 years, or older, with histopathologically or cytologically confirmed advanced mucinous or non-mucinous appendix cancer or advanced small intestine cancer will be eligible for participation in the study. Approximately, 22 patients will be enrolled in the study. The study drugs will be administered per the regimen defined in the NAPOLI-3 clinical trial, NCT04083235. Patients will be treated with NALIRIFOX (liposomal irinotecan 50 mg/m2 + 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 + LV 400 mg/m2 + oxaliplatin 60 mg/m2) every 2 weeks for 12 months.

Arms & Interventions
nal-IRI plus 5-FU/LV plus NALIRIFOX
Patients in this arm will receive NALIRIFOX
Intervention: Patients will be treated with NALIRIFOX (liposomal irinotecan 50 mg/m2 + 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 + LV 400 mg/m2 + oxaliplatin 60 mg/m2, IV) every 2 weeks for 12 months (Drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 in patients receiving Nalirifox per Napoli-3 regimen as first-line chemotherapy for advanced non-resectable small intestine and appendiceal cancers
Time Frame: Over 12 months
This measure evaluates the safety and tolerability of Nalirifox per Napoli-3 regimen by reporting the number of participants experiencing treatment-related adverse events, graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. Data will be collected through clinical assessments, including physical examinations, laboratory tests, and patient-reported adverse events, and summarized as the total count and severity of events per participant.
Secondary Outcomes
- Duration of response to Nalirifox per Napoli-3 regimen as first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-resectable small intestine and appendiceal cancers, assessed by RECIST v1.1(Over 12 months)
