mFOLFIRINOX as First-Line Chemotherapy in Treating Chinese Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
Interventions
Drug: mFOLFIRINOX
Registration Number
NCT02028806
Lead Sponsor
Yuhong Li
Brief Summary

This phase Ⅱ study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mFOLFIRINOX as first-line treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer in China.

Detailed Description

Although FOLFIRINOX regimen was recently presented to be effective for metastatic pancreatic cancer in selected patients who have good physical condition, there is still insufficient evidence on this regimen in treating patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer in China. Since for many tumors, different races may show different responses to the same regimen, we design this open, multicenter phase Ⅱ study to evaluate the the efficacy and safety of mFOLFIRINOX as first-line treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer in China.
