Study summary

This study is designed to explore the efficacy and safety of surufatinib combined with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel as peri-operative treatment in locally advanced or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase II, multi-centered, open-label study, aims to explore the efficacy and safety of surufatinib (250mg, qd po) combined with gemcitabine (1000mg/m2, I.V, d1/8/15, Q4W) and nab-paclitaxel (125mg/m2, I.V, d1/8/15, Q4W) as peri-operative treatment in locally advanced or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. Potential therapeutic biomarkers will also be explored.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Surgical complete resection rate (R0)

    This is a complete macroscopic resection of the gross tumor with negative surgical margins

    Time frame: about 2 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR= Complete response rate + partial response rate

    Time frame: about 2 years

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    DCR= Complete response rate + partial response rate + disease stable rate

    Time frame: about 2 years

  3. Downstaging Rate

    To determine the rate of downstaging after preoperative therapy

    Time frame: about 2 years

  4. Surgical Resection Rate

    To determine the rate of surgical resection after preoperative therapy

    Time frame: about 2 years

  5. Pathological complete response (pCR) rate

    pCR is defined as the absence of residual tumor cells in the pathological examination after resection

    Time frame: about 2 years

  6. Major pathological response (MPR)

    MPR is defined as less than 10% residual tumor after neoadjuvant therapy

    Time frame: about 2 years

  7. Overall survival (OS)

    OS: from the initial date of neoadjuvant therapy to the date of death due to any cause. Patients without documentation of death at the time of analysis will be censored at the last follow-up date. Estimated using Kaplan-Meier method.

    Time frame: about 5 years

  8. Recurrence Free Survival (RFS)

    RFS: from the initial date of neoadjuvant treatment to the first date of radiologic recurrence or death after perioperative treatment.

    Time frame: about 3 years

  9. Disease-free survival (DFS)

    DFS: from the initial date of neoadjuvant treatment to the date of disease recurrence or death, whichever is earlier.

    Time frame: about 3 years

  10. Adverse events (AEs)

    treatment-related adverse events and serious adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0

    Time frame: about 2 years
