Study Overview

Study of Safety and Tolerability of PCI-27483 in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer Patients Receiving Treatment With Gemcitabine

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of selected dose 1.2mg/kg BID dosage administered subcutaneously (SC) administered PCI-27483 to metastatic or locally advanced pancreatic cancer patients receiving concurrent therapy with intravenously administered gemcitabine for 12 weeks.

This study will be conducted in three segments: Part A, Part B and Part C. Parts A and B are 12 weeks of treatment followed by 4 weeks of evaluation. In part A patients will dose-escalate up to three dose levels of PCI-27483 administered as subcutaneous (SC) injections twice-daily (BID). Part B to start once 4th patient completes 90 of 112 doses in 8 weeks. In part B patients are randomized to PCI-27483 and gemcitabine (active arm) OR gemcitabine only (control arm). PCI-27483 doses in both Part A and B will be administered in combination with a standard regimen of gemcitabine. Patients with a tumor response or stable disease at 12 weeks will have the opportunity to continue PCI-27483 treatment until disease progression or the Investigator considers the study treatment to be no longer tolerable. Treatment with gemcitabine in either the active or control arm may continue until a standard course of gemcitabine therapy has been completed. Patients will complete Part A or Part B after 16 weeks on study regardless of treatment duration. Evaluable patients will roll over into part C and be followed for 12 months from enrollment (first dose).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Gemcitabine

Subjects receive Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 weekly intravenous infusion.

DRUG: PCI-27483

  • Part A: Closed to enrollment.Part B: Approximately 20 patients will be randomized to the control arm that will receive a standard regimen of gemcitabine and 20 patients will be randomized to the PCI-27483 arm and treated with both gemcitabine and PCI-2748

DRUG: Gemcitabine

EXPERIMENTAL: PCI-27483 + Gemcitabine

Part A: Subjects received PCI-27483 0.8 mg/kg BID as initial dose and may be escalated to 1.2, and 1.5 mg/kg BID. At the same time, subjects received Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 weekly intravenous infusion. Part B: Subjects received the PCI-27483 at 1.2 mg/kg

DRUG: PCI-27483

  • Part A: Closed to enrollment.Part B: Approximately 20 patients will be randomized to the control arm that will receive a standard regimen of gemcitabine and 20 patients will be randomized to the PCI-27483 arm and treated with both gemcitabine and PCI-2748

DRUG: Gemcitabine

Measurable disease by spiral CT scan (SCT) in accordance with RECIST criteria. 6. Patients after non-curative surgery are eligible if at least 4 weeks after surgery and recovered from significant surgical morbidity. 7. Estimated life expectancy of at least 4 months. 8. ECOG performance status 0 to 1. 9. Normal baseline coagulation function as defined by:
    1. PT 10-16 seconds, and 2. aPTT 22-38 seconds. 10. Agree to not participate in contact sports or strenuous activity while taking PCI-27483. 11. Ability to understand the study, willingness to participate in the study for the study duration, and ability to provide written informed consent to participate.
