Randomized Study With Oxaliplatin in 2nd Line Pancreatic Cancer

October 23, 2014 updated by: Sanofi

A Randomized Phase III Study of 5-Fluorouracil-based Regimen With or Without Oxaliplatin as 2nd Line Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer in Patients Who Have Previously Received Gemcitabine-based Chemotherapy

Primary Objective:

To demonstrate that the addition of oxaliplatin to 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and Leucovorin (LV) will improve the Progression-Free Survival (PFS). Progression is based on RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors) criteria or death

Secondary Objective:

To evaluate other measures of tumor responses, safety, quality of life (QoL), and health utility assessment.

Exclusion criteria:

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance status > 2
  • Serious cardiac arrhythmia, diabetes, or serious active infection or other active illness that would preclude study participation in the opinion of the investigator
  • Pernicious anemia or other megaloblastic anemia with vitamin B12 deficiency

  • Severe renal impairment (ClCr < 50 mL/min)
  • Pregnant women or breast-feeding
  • Patients (male or female) with reproductive potential not implementing accepted and effective method of contraception (the definition of "effective method of contraception" will be based on the investigators' judgment)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: Within the 3 months of study treatment
PFS is defined as the time from the start of treatment to the date of disease progression or death from any cause.
Within the 3 months of study treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall response rate (ORR)
Time Frame: 12 weeks
ORR is based on RECIST criteria and is the percentage of patients with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR).
12 weeks
Duration of response
Time Frame: 12 weeks
The duration of overall response is measured from the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever status is recorded first) until the first date that recurrence, i.e. progressive disease (PD) is determined by RECIST criteria or death
12 weeks
Disease Controlled Rate (DCR)
Time Frame: 12 weeks
DCR is also based on RECIST criteria and is defined as the percentage of patients who have a CR, PR or stable disease (SD)
12 weeks
Median Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: 2 years
Median Survival is the number of weeks at which 50% of the patients are still alive.
2 years
