Detaljeret beskrivelse
Primary Objective:
To determine the safety and tolerability of the OnVagus device in patients wearing it while receiving chemotherapy.
Secondary Objective:
To determine the rate of cachexia arrest, as defined by weight stabilization or gain
Exploratory Objectives:
To analyze the changes in chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2), tumor necrosis factor α (TNFa), acetylcholine (ACh), Growth/differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), and liver function tests (LFTs) while patients receive vagal blockade.
To determine the device's impact on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) between patients receiving vagal blockade.

Beskrivelse
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
- Must have adenocarcinoma component (presence of combined histology is acceptable, as long as adenocarcinoma is present).
- Weight loss from baseline of at least 5% (Baseline weight can be anytime from diagnosis onward).
- Must have a tissue-based confirmation of diagnosis available. Tissue does not need to be a metastasis; primary tumor or prior surgery are acceptable sources.
- Must have had progression of disease after one prior line of therapy in the metastatic setting.
- Must be receiving or plan to receive another line of therapy in the metastatic setting. o If therapy is being administered outside MD Anderson, the patient is still eligible for this trial. o Enrollment onto a therapeutic clinical trial as this second line therapy is not explicitly excluded.
Must have triple ECG results available. Patients will be ineligible if they present: o Second- or third-degree block.
- Prolonged QT wave.
- Atrial fibrillation or flutter.
- Uncontrolled ventricular fibrillation or flutter.
- Premature ventricular contractions (PVC).
Exclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria
- History of cervical vagotomy on the right side of neck.
- Known structural abnormalities on the right side of neck, including but not limited to situs inversus, bulky R-neck lymphadenopathy, etc., that in the investigators' opinion would lead to inability to correctly place the device onto the vagus nerve.
- Implanted electrical device that passes through the neck (e.g.: cranial implant with battery pack in chest, and wires running through the neck).
- Metal implants in the neck, including the cervical spine.
- Recent (6 months or less) nerve block or botox injections to the head or neck.
- Pain specifically localized to the treatment area, the right side of the neck.
- Prior severe cerebrovascular disease (e.g., intracranial aneurysm, intracranial hemorrhage, stroke).
- Prior severe cardiac disease, including but not limited to coronary artery disease (CAD), prior myocardial infarction (MI), uncontrolled congestive heart failure (CHF).

Eksperimentel: Treatment with OnVagus device
Device will be applied by participant/caregiver daily for 30 min/day for 4 weeks; if well tolerated, 30 min twice per day for the following 4 weeks.
|
The transcutaneous LFVB (tLFVB), involves placing a superficial, transcutaneous device over the right vagus nerve.
The device can be self-applied, after participant/provider education on application is completed.
While applied, the device provides the low frequency vagal blockade intended to arrest the cachexia process.
