Study of Onivyde and 5-FU in Combination With Xilonix for Pancreatic Cancer With Cachexia (OnFX)

December 29, 2020 updated by: Andrew Hendifar, MD

A Phase I Study of Onivyde and 5-FU in Combination With Xilonix for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer With Cachexia

This study is being conducted to examine the safety of the investigational drug, Xilonix(™), in addition to standard doses of Onivyde® (nanoliposomal irinotecan) and 5- fluorouracil (5FU)/folinic acid (leucovorin) for pancreatic cancer patients with cachexia. Cachexia is a syndrome that includes involuntary weight loss and physical deterioration that can contribute to poor outcomes of cancer treatment. In other studies, Xilonix has increased lean body mass in advanced cancer patients. This increase could lead to improved weight maintenance and quality of life.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study will prospectively evaluate advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients. The intervention will be interleukin-1-alpha antagonist (Xilonix) in addition to standard chemotherapy. The first aim is to assess the safety and identify the maximum tolerated dose of Onivyde with 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid in combination with the study agent, Xilonix. The study will also create a repository of serum, tissue, and fecal specimens to investigate novel biomarkers related to cachexia with pancreatic adenocarcinoma and interleukin-1-alpha blockade. Lastly, the study will assess for a correlation between cachexia, activity, and PROs on domains of quality of life.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No
