Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety of BC-819 and Gemcitabine in Patients With Locally Advanced Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma (NCT NCT01413087)

NCT ID: NCT01413087

Last Updated: 2019-11-01

Results Overview

To compare the effect of intratumoral endoscopic ultrasound injection of BC-819 administered with intravenous gemcitabine on progression-free survival. PFS was defined as the time from the date of consent until objective tumor progression or death. Median PFS by Kaplan-Meier analysis was used for evaluation. The target tumor lesion was identified and the longest diameter of the target lesion was measured according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 guidelines. For disease evaluations after treatment, scans conducted at baseline that were used for tumor measurements were repeated.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 months

Population: ITT comprised of all subjects who received any treatment with either gemcitabine or BC-819 and whose tumors were positive for H19. All 12 patients were included in the ITT population.

To compare the effect of intratumoral endoscopic ultrasound injection of BC-819 administered with intravenous gemcitabine on progression-free survival. PFS was defined as the time from the date of consent until objective tumor progression or death. Median PFS by Kaplan-Meier analysis was used for evaluation. The target tumor lesion was identified and the longest diameter of the target lesion was measured according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 guidelines. For disease evaluations after treatment, scans conducted at baseline that were used for tumor measurements were repeated.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Population: ITT population comprised of all subjects who received any treatment with either gemcitabine or BC-819 and whose tumors were positive for H19. All 12 patients were included in the ITT population

Response rate will be assessed both for the primary target tumor lesion alone and overall, including development of metastases. Target tumor lesions are identified and the longest diameter of the target lesion is measured by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 guidelines. Complete response: Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. Partial Response: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Progressive Disease: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also show an increase of at least 5 mm. Stable Disease: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: an average of 16 weeks

Population: ITT population comprised all subjects who received any treatment with either gemcitabine or BC-819 and whose tumors were positive for H19. All 12 patients were included in the ITT population.

Resectability of the target tumor lesion was determined by CT/MRI as defined in the National Comprehensive Cancer network (NCCN) guidelines. Resectable tumors have no arterial tumor contact (celiac axis \[CA\], superior mesenteric artery \[SMA\], or common hepatic artery \[CHA\]) and no tumor contact with the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) or portal vein (PV) or ≤180° contact without vein contour irregularity. \*Not Applicable refers to another clinically significant abnormality that interfered with resectability determination of the target tumor lesion.

Quality of life will be assessed by the The Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) Index. KPS scores over time will be compared to those at baseline and changes from baseline will be presented. KPS scores are on a scale (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100) of 0 (dead) to 100 (Normal no complaints; no evidence of disease).

The FACT-G is a 27-item compilation of general questions divided into 4 primary QoL domains: physical well-being, social/family well-being, emotional well-being and functional well-being. The total FACT-G scores will be summarized by descriptive statistics (e.g., n, mean, median, standard deviation and range). The individual FACT-G score will be presented by frequency and percentage. Scores range from 0-108. High total scores represent better general QoL.

They may also enter the study if they received up to 4 doses of gemcitabine before entering the study. In this case, they will be randomized immediately provided there is no evidence of disease progression.
