Brief Summary
|
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) are the most common tumors of the pancreas
and frequently present in an advanced unresectable stage (80-85%). The rates of improvement in survival
in pancreatic cancers have been slow compared to the advances seen in other cancers. In metastatic
pancreatic cancers, where median overall survival (mOS) is approximately 6-11 months only, palliative
chemotherapy with gemcitabine had previously remained the cornerstone of treatment. However,
improvements in mOS have been seen with combination regimens. The chemotherapy regimen which has
shown the maximum benefits in terms of outcomes is FOLFIRINOX. However, initial studies with this
regimen showed significant side effects. This has led clinicians and investigators to evaluate different
regimens which are more suitable to patients who are frail and elderly and may not tolerate the
FOLFIRINOX regimen.
It is unclear whether commonly used combination chemotherapy regimens containing more than one drug
are better than using a single drug in terms of disease control and side-effect profile. This study will
assess the disease control rate with different chemotherapy regimens (two-drug chemotherapy regimens
versus single drug gemcitabine) in pancreatic cancer. All these regimes are part of standard chemotherapy
options, and any of these can be used to treat this type of cancer.
G8 tool is a well-studied tool which helps in comprehensively evaluating elderly patients and by using it
we can identify elderly patients at higher risk of chemotherapy side-effects.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether a two-drug chemotherapy regimen is better than singledrug gemcitabine in terms of disease control, in pancreatic cancer in elderly and frail patients selected as
per their performance status and G8 scores. reatment Overview: Post enrolment, patient will be randomized into one of two treatment arms:-
I. Arm A (Physician choice multiagent chemotherapy): The treatment regimens allowed in this
arm are,
1. Gemcitabine- Nab-Paclitaxel - Given as injections every 28 days on Day 1, Day 8 and Day 15
2. Gemcitabine-Cisplatin - Given as injections on Day 1 and Day 8 every 21 days
Treatment will be continued till unacceptable toxicity, death, or consent withdrawal.
II. Arm B (Experimental) (weekly gemcitabine): In this arm the patient will receive only single
agent chemotherapy – Gemcitabine given as injection on Day 1, Day 8 and Day 15 every 28 days.
Patient will be on supportive care and reviewed periodically every 2-3 months as per study or on an
emergency basis in case of symptomatic disease worsening.
Treatment will be continued till unacceptable toxicity, death, or consent withdrawal.
The expected outcomes are to evaluate the difference in survival called as overall survival (OS) at 6
months between the two therapies, Progression free survival (PFS) at 6 months, Response rates, Adverse
event rates/rates of side effects and Quality of life scales/measurements |
