Apatinib as Second-line Treatment of Advanced Pancreatic Cancer (Apslpanc)

Apatinib as Second-line Treatment of Advanced Pancreatic Cancer, Phase II Clinical Study of Open Arm

The main research purpose Evaluation of objective response Apatinib second-line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer (ORR) and the rate of progression free survival (PFS).

Objective to study the objective and exploratory secondary research To observe the Apatinib in second line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer disease control rate (DCR), patients with overall survival (OS) benefit, treatment effects on quality of life (QOL) score and drug safety evaluation, To investigate the relationship of apatinib as second-line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor(VEGFR) in the serum

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to determine what effects apatinib has on advanced pancreatic cancer patients after failure of first-line chemotherapy cannot tolerate second-line chemotherapy or unwilling to receive second-line chemotherapy of pancreatic cancer patients.To investigate the relationship between apatinib as second-line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor(VEGFR) in the serum.

This study choose the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an JiaoTong University were unable to tolerate the failure of first-line chemotherapy for second-line chemotherapy or unwilling to receive second-line chemotherapy of pancreatic cancer patients as the research object, the clinical data of clinical subjects age and sex, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, tumor stage, pathological type, pathological grading, giving apatinib treatment, during the treatment of blood monitoring in patients with CA199 levels, imaging findings, assessment of tumor related symptoms and adverse events, and the expression of VEGFR in blood was measured by ELISA method, the curative effect evaluation of the end of the 2 cycle of treatment, patients with effective evaluation to oral apatinib, through the statistical analysis of the data of complete remission (CR) or partial remission (PR), the rate of progression free survival (PFS) expression of CA199 content in serum and serum VEGFR levels of the relevant indicators,. Explore Apatinib for the curative effect and safety of the second-line treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer, and to explore the relationship between the serum VEGF expression level.
