Total Tumor Mapping (TTM) for Resectable Pancreatic Cancer

February 3, 2021 updated by: H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute

Total Tumor Mapping (TTM) for Resectable Pancreatic Cancer: Establishing the Radiomic/Pathologic Foundation of Heterogeneity

At present there is no validated prognostic tool for patients with resectable pancreatic cancer (RPC) to determine how best to tailor individual therapy. This study is to see if tumor features in blood and imaging prior to surgery correspond with tumor heterogeneity in the specimen after surgery.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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Withdrawn

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 is to prospectively determine whether there is a predictive relationship in RPC between pre-operative radiomic imaging features and pathologic tumor heterogeneity, delineated by gene-expression-based RSI and histologic measures of hypoxia measured by Glut-1 and CA-IX as well as the degree of pimonidazole staining.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

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)

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18 years of age and older who have biopsy-proven resectable pancreatic cancer
  • Participants must have a histological diagnosis of pancreatic head ductal adenocarcinoma at least ≥ 1 cm from ampula.
  • Participants must be able to undergo all 3 imaging modalities.
  • Participants' medical statuses must be considered appropriate for surgery and for general anesthesia.
  • Female participants and female partners of male participants undergoing optional PET-CT or CT pancreatic protocol scan cannot be pregnant or nursing, as confirmed by serum pregnancy test if the patient is a woman of child-bearing potential.
  • All female participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use birth control, including oral, injectable, or mechanical contraception, abstinence, or vasectomy for 30 days following pimonidazole administration.
  • Adequate kidney and liver function as assessed by laboratory studies. Laboratory studies must be completed within 28 days prior to pimonidazole administration;
  • Must be capable of providing informed consent and demonstrate a willingness to comply with all the study procedures and visits;
  • Must be able to undergo MRI scans without having a pacemaker or other indwelling metal, which would contraindicate the scan.
  • Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0 to 2.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Participants who are contraindicated for MRI or gadolinium contrast agents.
  • If the patient has an iodine contrast allergy, they must be able to take standard pre-medications so they can safely undergo a CT scan.
  • Participants with a known active cancer with a prognosis that would contraindicate a curative intent pancreatic resection.
  • Participants with depressed liver function, as assessed with a screening liver function test yielding serum ALT or AST greater than the IULN or total bilirubin greater than 2 mg/dL.
  • Presence of any other co-existing condition, which, in the judgment of the investigator, might increase the risk to the patient.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
EXPERIMENTAL: Scans, Surgical Resection and Assessment
Pre-surgery scans, surgical resection and post-surgery pathological assessment. All patients will receive standard of care imaging and blood tests. If suitable, non-standard of care abdominal MRI imaging will be done. 16-24 hours prior to surgery, patients will be administered a single dose of 0.5 g/m^2 pimonidazole (HydroxyProbe).
Drug: Pimonidazole
Patients will take a single dose of 0.5 g/m^2 (approximately 13 mg/kg) of oral pimonidazole HCI 16 to 24 hours prior to surgery.
Other Names:
  • HydroxyProbe
  • Pimonidazole HCI
Procedure: Surgical Resection
Patients will undergo Pancreaticoduodenectomy or Whipple procedure, which involves the resection of the pancreatic head, duodenum, gallbladder, and a portion of the stomach, 16 to 24 hours after consuming oral pimonidazole.
Other Names:
  • Surgery
  • Pancreatoduodenectomy
  • Whipple Procedure

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Radiosensitivity Index and Degree of Pimonidazole Staining
Time Frame: Up to 14 weeks
Relationship between PET/CT, MRI or pancreas protocol CT features and the pathological correlations of radiation sensitivity and hypoxia, as measured by the radiosensitivity index (RSI) and degree of pimonidazole staining in resectable pancreatic cancer.
Up to 14 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Correlative Biomarkers
Time Frame: Up to 14 weeks
Investigators will quantitiatively compare correlative biomarkers with the degree of pimonidazole staining and RSI. These biomarkers will include radiomic features from the preoperative imaging tests, serum CA 19-9, and histological markers for biological hypoxia, GLUT-1, and CA-IX. Data from all of these biomarkers will be available as continuous variables. The association between RSI (or % pimonidazole-positive pixels) and biomarkers will be assessed using the Spearman correlation analysis.
Up to 14 weeks
