Study Overview

Study of Gemcitabine/Taxotere/Xeloda (GTX) in Combination With Cisplatin and Irinotecan in Subjects With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

This study will be looking at whether gemcitabine, taxotere, and xeloda (GTX) in combination with cisplatin and irinotecan is effective (anti-tumor activity) and safe in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.

The study is being done in 2 parts. The first part is the dose escalation (Phase I) part of the study where the dose of irinotecan is increased until the highest safe dose of irinotecan is defined that can be given with gemcitabine, taxotere, xeloda, and cisplatin. After the safe dose of irinotecan in combination with gemcitabine, taxotere, xeloda, and cisplatin is defined, the second part of the study (Phase 2) will use these defined doses to look at how effective these drugs are against advanced pancreatic cancer.

Secondary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Response Rate (RR) Using RECIST 1.1 CriteriaRR is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at any time during the study. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.43 months
Disease Control Rate (DCR) Using RECIST 1.1 CriteriaDCR is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at any time during the study. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.43 months
Progression-free Survival (PFS) Using RECIST 1.1 CriteriaPFS is defined as the number of months from the date of first dose to disease progression (progressive disease [PD] or relapse from complete response [CR] as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death due to any cause. Per RECIST 1.1 criteria, CR = disappearance of all target lesions, Partial Response (PR) is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, Progressive Disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
