研究概览
简要总结
The goal of this study is to find out if taking two oral study drugs (avutometinib and defactinib) are safe for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Researchers also want to see if the drugs can slow down tumor growth and shrink tumors for possible surgery. These drugs are approved by the FDA to treat a certain kind of ovarian cancer. This study has two parts:
- Part A is for patients whose cancer has spread to other parts of the body.
- Part B is for patients whose cancer has not spread, but who cannot have surgery.
Participants will take both drugs as told by their doctor with their regular cancer medicine. Participants will also give blood samples throughout the study. These samples will help researchers learn about how participants respond to treatment and about their pancreatic cancer.
详细描述
Participants in part A will take the study drugs in 28-day cycles for up to 6 cycles with their chemotherapy. Participants whose cancer is not getting worse (known as disease control) may continue the study drugs in combination with maintenance chemotherapy until their disease worsens or negative side effects are noted.
Participants in part B will take the study drugs in 28-day cycles for up to 6 cycles with their chemotherapy. After cycle 4 and cycle 6, participants will have their disease re-assessed with consideration for surgery. Participants whose cancer is not getting worse (disease control) but are ineligible for surgery may continue the study drugs in combination with maintenance chemotherapy until their disease worsens or negative side effects are noted.

- •Individuals must have adequate organ function defined by the following laboratory parameters:
- •Absolute neutrophil count (ANC): ≥ 1500/mm3 Platelets: ≥100,000/mm3 Hemoglobin: ≥9 g/dL Serum Creatinine: ≤ 1.5 x ULN or creatinine clearance rate of ≥ 50 mL/min as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula Bilirubin: ≤ 1.5 x ULN (except in patients with Gilbert's disease, where bilirubin to 3x ULN is allowed).
- •AST and ALT: ≤ 2.5 x ULN or ≤ 5 x ULN for patients with liver metastasis INR: ≤ 1.5 x ULN in the absence of anticoagulation or therapeutic levels in the presence of anticoagulation Creatine phosphokinase (CPK): ≤ 2.5 x ULN
- •Baseline corrected QT interval (QTc) interval ≤ 480 millisecond (ms) (CTCAE v5.0, Grade 0-1) using Fridericia's QT correction formula.
- •Patients with a left bundle branch block (LBBB) > 480 ms will need their QTc calculated by Bazett (QTc = QT(measured) - 0.5 × QRS(LBBB)).
排除标准
- •Patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET), islet cell tumors, mucinous cystic, acinar or squamous (≥ 50%) histology are excluded.
- •Prior treatment for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
- •Presence of distant metastases (Part B only).
- •Presence of symptomatic ascites or the need for paracentesis within 2 weeks prior to registration.
- •Major surgery within 4 weeks (excluding placement of vascular access) of registration.
- •Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy within past 5 years whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen. Examples of malignancies that may be permitted include non-melanoma skin cancer, localized prostate cancer treated with curative intent or under active surveillance, localized thyroid cancer (papillary or follicular), non-muscle invasive low-grade bladder cancer, resected gastrointestinal stromal tumor, stage I testicular cancer post orchiectomy, WHO (World Health Organization) grade 1 meningioma.
- •Prior treatment with either inhibitors of the RAS/MAPK pathway [e.g., MEK inhibitors] or inhibitors of FAK within the last 6 months.
- •Patients on treatment with warfarin within 5 days of registration. Patients on warfarin for deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism can be converted to low-molecular-weight heparin or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).
- •Participants requiring medications or supplements with potential for drug-drug interactions, specifically strong CYP3A4 or CYP2C9 inhibitors or inducers (Table 7). Participants must be off these medications for 7 days prior to the first dose of study intervention(s). These substances should also be avoided during the course of therapy.
- •Patients with known UGT1A1 deficiency based on genetic analysis of the UGT1A1 gene.
- •Receipt of live vaccines (not limited to the following: measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox, yellow fever, rabies, BCG) within 30 days of registration. Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are generally killed virus vaccines and are permitted. However, intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g., FluMist®) are live attenuated vaccines and are not permitted.

- •Active Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection, unless patient is on effective anti-retroviral therapy and was shown to have a negative viral load within 6 months of registration.
