Study summary

This is a single arm, open-label, non-randomized multi-institution phase II trial of a Fc enhanced CTLA4 antibody, vilastobart, in combination with PD-1 antibody, retifanlimab, in patients with BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2 deficient pancreatic cancer (PC).

Read the detailed description

This is a single arm open label phase 2 clinical trial of a novel immunotherapy combination with Fc enhanced CTLA4 inhibitor, Vilastobart, in combination with PD-1 inhibitor, retifanlimab, in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who harbor a germline or somatic pathogenic alterations in BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2. The primary obejctive is to determine the efficacy of vilastobart in combination with retifanlimab in patients with BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2 altered pancreatic cancer as measured by objective response rate (ORR).This research study involves screening, study treatment with the study drugs, study visits, and follow-up visits. This study expects to enroll up to 40 participants. Participants will receive the study treatment for up to one year and will be followed for up to three years. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved vilastobart as a treatment for any disease. The FDA has not approved retifanlimab (ZYNYZ) for this specific disease but it has been approved for other uses.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(35)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

Measurable disease

The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.

The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.

RECIST

The standard rules for measuring tumours on CT or MRI scans, to tell whether a cancer is shrinking, stable or growing during treatment.

“Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1” usually means at least one tumour 10 mm or more at its longest on a CT scan, or a lymph node 15 mm or more across its short axis.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Adjuvant and neoadjuvant

Neoadjuvant treatment is given before the main treatment (usually surgery), often to shrink a tumour. Adjuvant treatment is given after it, to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.

Line of therapy

A line of therapy is one course of treatment, which may combine several drugs. First-line is the first course given; second-line follows when that stops working or is not tolerated.

“Two prior lines” means two courses that count separately under the study’s rules — not simply two drugs. Ask the study team if you are unsure how yours are counted.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Absolute neutrophil count (ANC)

The number of neutrophils, white blood cells that help fight infection, in a given amount of blood. Too few raises the risk of infection.

It is a count, not a percentage of the white cells. Limits are written in units that mean the same: ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L is ≥ 1,500 per mm³ (µL). Each lab has its own reference range.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

GFR and eGFR (kidney filtering)

GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².

Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Postmenopausal

Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

PD-1, PD-L1 and checkpoint inhibitors

PD-1, PD-L1 and CTLA-4 are proteins that act as brakes on the immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors, such as pembrolizumab or nivolumab, block them so the immune system can attack a cancer.

PD-L1 can also be measured in a tumour sample. Some scores count stained tumour cells only (TPS); others also count certain immune cells (CPS). The study names the score and the minimum it uses.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Washout period

A planned gap after a treatment, so that its effects can lessen before the study treatment or a study assessment. Ask the study team and the doctor who prescribed it before changing any medicine.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Live vaccines

Vaccines made with a weakened form of the germ, such as measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), chickenpox and yellow fever. They can be risky when the immune system is weakened. Flu injections are not live; the nasal flu spray is.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

CD4 count

The number of CD4 cells, a type of white blood cell, in a given amount of blood. It is used to follow how well the immune system is doing in HIV.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Brain metastases

Cancer deposits in the brain from a cancer that started elsewhere in the body (CNS metastases include the spinal cord).

Studies differ: some leave out any brain metastases, some accept ones treated and stable for some weeks. Check what this study allows.

Leptomeningeal disease

Cancer that has spread to the leptomeninges, the thin layers covering the brain and spinal cord, and the fluid between them. It is not the same as brain metastases.

Criteria often treat it separately, and many studies leave it out even where treated brain metastases are allowed.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Vilastobart + Retifanlimab

    This arm involves screening, study treatment with the study drugs, study visits, and follow-up visits for up to 3 years from time of joining study. Participants will receive up to 4 doses of Vilastobart, and Retifanlimab every three weeks until disease progression, intolerable side effects, or for a total of one year. Premedication for all vilastobart doses is required. For participants who experience disease progression on retifanlimab monotherapy or after completion of therapy on trial may be considered for re-induction with vilastobart and retifanlimab. Treatment beyond disease progression will be permitted for first instance of progressive disease by RECIST only if patients remain clinically stable from their disease and ongoing treatment is considered appropriate by patient, treating physician, and Sponsor Investigator.

    Drug: vilastobart (XTX101) · Drug: Retifanlimab

Interventions

  • 100mg administered once every 6 weeks (Day 1 of every 6-week cycle) by intravenous infusion (IV) over about 90-140 minutes. This will continue for up to 4 6-week cycles (4 doses).

    Also known as: XTX101

  • 375 mg administered once every 3 weeks (Days 2 and 23 of every 6-week cycle) by intravenous infusion over about 30 minutes. This will continue for up to 12 months.

    Also known as: INCMGA00012, MGA012, ZYNYZ

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    The primary endpoint is objective response rate for combination of vilastobart with retifanlimab. Response is measured using RECISTv1.1 and evaluated independently. Evaluation of the primary endpoint will follow a Simon's two-stage design. The objective response rate will be reported with an exact binomial 95% confidence interval.

    Time frame: Up to 1 year from baseline.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    Progression is measured using RECIST v1.1 defined as measured from the start of the treatment with vilastobart to the date of either documentation of disease progression or death. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate PFS.

    Time frame: From Day 1 through end of follow up (up to 3 years from registration)

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate OS.

    Time frame: Up to 3 years from registration

  3. Duration of response (DoR)

    To measure the durability of response of the combination regimen as measured by duration of response (DoR), the duration of overall response is measured from the time RECIST v1.1 measurement criteria are met for complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started, or death due to any cause. Participants without events reported are censored at the last disease evaluation).

    Time frame: From Day 1 through end of follow up (up to 3 years from registration)

  4. Overall clinical benefit

    Overall clinical benefit is defined as complete response (CR), or partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) for at least 16 weeks as assessed by RECISTv1.1. They will be summarized using binomial proportions along with exact 95% CI.

    Time frame: From baseline through up to 1 year.

  5. Safety and tolerability of vilastobart and retifanlimab

    To determine safety and tolerability of the combination of vilastobart and retifanlimab, CTCAEv5.0 will be used to assess safety and tolerability. All patients who receive at least one dose of the study treatment regimen will be included in the assessment of adverse events (safety population). The number of patients experiencing new or worsening of each type of adverse event will be summarized according to the worst grade observed; incidence rates of adverse events and grade 3-5 adverse events will be summarized with 90% exact binomial confidence intervals.

    Time frame: From baseline through up to 1 year

  6. Treatment-associated depletion of regulatory T cells

    To assess treatment-associated depletion of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and association with clinical outcomes following vilastobart and retifanlimab, as measured by density of CD3+CD4+FOXP3+ T cells per mm\^2 in paired pre-treatment and on-treatment tumor biopsies. Treg density at each time point, as well as absolute and percent change from baseline, will be summarized descriptively. Within-patient change will be assessed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Baseline Treg density and change in Treg density will be compared between patients with and without objective response, and between patients with and without clinical benefit, using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Associations with PFS and OS will be explored using Cox proportional hazards models.

    Time frame: From screening to on-treatment biopsy (estimated to be up to 2 months).
