Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Glufosfamide Compared With Best Supportive Care in Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

April 28, 2009 updated by: Threshold Pharmaceuticals

A Randomized Phase 3 Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Glufosfamide Compared With Best Supportive Care in Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Previously Treated With Gemcitabine

The primary objectives of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of glufosfamide in subjects with pancreatic cancer who have been previously treated with gemcitabine as measured by overall survival compared with best supportive care.

Detailed Description

TH-CR-302 is a randomized Phase 3 study that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of glufosfamide plus best supportive care (BSC) compared to BSC alone for second line treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer. BSC includes all medical or surgical interventions that a pancreatic cancer patient should receive to palliate the cancer but excludes treatment with systemic therapies intended to kill the cancer cells.

Study Hypothesis: Glufosfamide will provide benefits in survival to patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer over best supportive care.

Comparison: Glufosfamide versus best supportive care.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • At least 18 years of age
  • Pancreatic adenocarcinoma proven either by histology (surgical biopsy) or cytology (CT- or endoscopic-guided)
  • Metastatic pancreatic cancer
  • Disease progression during or after treatment with gemcitabine (alone or in combination with other agents; at regular, not radiosensitizing, doses) for advanced/metastatic pancreatic cancer
