Abstract
TPS619 Background: Neoadjuvant treatment for potentially curable pancreatic cancer (PDAC) is increasing in acceptability, but a standard regimen has yet to be established. Multiple studies have demonstrated feasibility and effectiveness of the FOLFIRINOX (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and irinotecan) regimen in the perioperative setting. However, FOLFIRINOX often requires dose modifications, delays and growth factor support due to excessive toxicity which can complicate care delivery when given pre-op. Liposomal irinotecan injection (Nal-IRI) in combination with 5FU/LV is FDA approved with a well-tolerated safety profile in relapsed, refractory metastatic PDAC. The current study aims to substitute Nal-IRI for traditional irinotecan in the standard FOLFIRINOX regimen (NALIRIFOX) and to demonstrate safe and effective neoadjuvant delivery. Methods: This phase 2, open-label, multicenter single-arm study focuses on patients (pts) with operable PDAC without metastatic disease. Other key eligibility criteria include age ≥18 years, resectability confirmed by multiD GI tumor board (resectable vs. borderline), adequate cardiac, renal, hepatic function and ECOG performance status of 0 to 1. Pts receive NALIRIFOX regimen as per the table every 2 weeks for four months followed by disease reassessment. Pts who remain surgical candidates will undergo surgical resection within 4 to 8 weeks following last dose of therapy. The primary endpoint is to assess safety and feasibility of regimen in pre-op setting. Secondary endpoints include R0 resection rate, clinical, biochemical and radiological response rate and patient-reported quality of life during treatment as measured by the NCI validated FACT-G scale. Exploratory ctDNA and stool microbiome analyses are also planned. Enrollment continues to a maximum of 28 evaluable pts to demonstrate a reduction in historical 30-day post-op complication rate. Clinical trial information: NCT03483038. [Table: see text]
