mFOLFIRINOX as Adjuvent Chemotherapy in Treating Chinese Pancreatic Cancer Patients

A Phase II Study With mFOLFIRINOX as Adjuvent Chemotherapy for Resectable Pancreas Carcinoma

Although FOLFIRINOX regimen was recently presented to be effective as adjuvant chemotherapy for resectable pancreatic cancer in selected patients who have good physical condition, there is still insufficient evidence on this regimen in treating resectable pancreatic cancer patients in China. Since for many tumors, different races may show different responses to the same regimen, we design this open phase Ⅱ study to evaluate the the efficacy and safety of mFOLFIRINOX as adjuvant chemotherapy for resectable pancreatic cancer in China.

Study Overview

• Status: Recruiting
• Conditions: Pancreatic Cancer
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Folfirinox

Detailed Description

This is a phase II study. Patients with resectable pancreatic carcinoma will receive adjuvant chemotherapy of FOLFIRINOX for 6 months.

Primary endpoint is the disease free survival. Secondary endpoints are overall survival, safety and quality of life.

• Study Type: Interventional
