Targeted Pathway Inhibition in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer
United States90 participantsStarted 2019-08-01
Plain-language summary
This early phase I trial aims to determine how cobimetinib, olaparib, onvansertib, azenosertib, AZD5305 or tremelimumab works in patients with pancreatic cancer. Validation of cobimetinib, olaparib, onvansertib azenosertib, AZD5305 and tremelimumab molecular targets will be explored by comparing pre-treatment biopsies with post-treatment specimens. This knowledge will help design future biomarker driven trials to determine whether giving cobimetinib, or olaparib, or onvansertib or azenosertib, or AZD5305, or tremelimumab will work better than standard treatments in patients with pancreatic cancer.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
* Age \>= 18 years
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2
* Clinically-confirmed diagnosis of resectable, borderline resectable, locally-advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.
* Patients with disease that is eligible for curative surgery may not be eligible for all study arms.
* Participants may be treatment naïve or have received prior therapy for the treatment of their pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). A minimum washout period of 10-days after completing the most recent line of therapy is required before a participant can initiate treatment with study agent(s)
* Based on available imaging, participant must have at least one disease lesion that can be biopsied in accordance with institutional standards
* Hemoglobin \>= 9.0 g/dL with no blood transfusion within 28 days of starting treatment (within 4 weeks prior to initiating window treatment). Note: laboratory tests performed after initial screening (but still within the screening window) will be evaluated by the investigator; should any of these values fall outside eligibility parameters, the patient may still be eligible per investigator discretion
* White blood cells (WBC) \> 3 x 10\^9/L (within 4 weeks prior to initiating window treatment). Note: laboratory tests performed after initial screening (but still within the screening window) will be evaluated by…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Proportion of all pharmacodynamic feasibility-evaluable participants within a study arm that have a measurable change in post-treatment tumor biology from baseline
Timeframe: Changes in tumor biology from baseline (i.e., Day 0) and on-treatment biopsy (i.e., 10 days from start of study intervention)
